Hi, 
If the camera goes into privacy mode automatically, please check the following settings.

 

    1. Go to the Tapo app > Cameras tab > Home Mode or Away Mode to check if your camera is included. If so, check if your camera's privacy mode is enabled. If your camera is included in the Home/Away mode and the privacy mode is enabled, applying the Home/Away mode will change your current settings.

    2. Go to the Tapo app > Smart tab > Automation page to check if there are entries to turn on the Privacy Mode of your camera. If so, disable or remove these entries for a try.
