Hi, good day. My Tapo C200 when I insert memory card can't write . Each time I insert 2 GB and 4 GB , camera will notified me " there a problem with SD card". Or do I need to use specific memory type like class 6 or 10?

Hello, what is the brand and the model number of this SD card? And what is the format type?

 

For your information, Tapo C200 supports a micro SD card with up to 128GB capacity, which should be formatted in FAT32, and it is suggested to format the card on the Tapo Camera APP first.

 

Try to change another SD card to test if possible. 

 

Please ensure that the firmware version of the camera  and the APP version are both up to date. 

 

May it help.

I also have the same issue. Hardware and App are up to date. I've removed the camera and the app and reinstalled without success. I'm using a SanDisk ultra128gb which works ok in another device. It says card problem on start up and the app locks up in the format menu

Not working for me.  I have samsung 2g sd card and the camera tells me there is an error and won't format it.  I formatted it in my pc as FAT32 and the card is fine.  Why won't the camera recognize it?  I don't want to have to buy another card.

Try to format it again and replug it into the SD card slot on the camera; you can repeat it for several times; we have received such feedback that the customer figured it out by doing it. https://community.tp-link.com/en/home/forum/topic/193242

@Zzz2020 

Hello, usually it will take a few minutes to format the SD card, it also depends on the card quality and capacity. You can try to format it on the computer first, then formate it on the app. 

If you still can't formate it successfully, you may refer to the instruction below to do some troubleshooting.

@Kevin_Z Hi Kevin, I just bought a 128gb micro sd SanDisk Ultra microSDXC UHS-I. I cannot format the memory card using the Tapo App. Please advise. Thanks
