Implemented Tapo C200 / permission calls for a shared device
Dear all
Is it possible to give a shared device the permission to make calls / speak with the camera? This would be very important if we want to use the camera as a baby monitor.
Thanks for your soonest reply and have a nice day.
Best regards,
Tamara

My dillema too.
I have multiple Tapo cameras installed at different addresses. I want to share devices to different people wherever they are assigned to. Example: Person A of Branch 1 should be able to speak and tilt camera installed at Branch 1 only but not configure it (on Privacy mode, adjust detection area, etc). Person 2 of Branch 2 should only see cameras installed at Branch 2 and be able to speak and tilt camera. And so on...
If I have to share the username and password to all of them, all of them will be able to access all the cameras even it's not within their vicinity. Currently, shared devices can only watch live and view playback. I would also want them to speak to provide instructions to their vicinity.

From my personal point of view, it is a basic requirement to share the same access permission or different level of permission with my family. I don't understand why we need to share the same admin account instead of the access permission. Please help to improve it in the next firmware edition, so we can upgrade our cam. Thanks in advance

@Solla-topee pretty disappointing. I just replaced my xiaomi camera with Tapos only to find out that. Sharing feature is very limited. Like restrictions on how many accounts can access (this should be the whole family), voice control and the very basic feature (panning the camera). This defeats the very purpose of having a security camera. Now I'm regretting buying this tapo's

Needed! It's a joke that this is not yet implemented after all these years..

I will make a re-fund at the seller if it's not fixed soon.
