C200 only allows 5 mins of streaming before prompting!
Hi my c200 randomly pops up the window after 5 minutes of monitoring and asks if I would like to continue the stream. How do I resolve this issue? It is my baby monitor and I need to be monitoring it continuously. I am watching the stream through the TAPO app, both my devices are on the same WIFI network, there are no firewall settings enabled that blocks devices within this network and lastly both my devices have the most updated software and/or firmware.
Thanks for the help in advance!

hi all!
i fixed the problem by installing mouse mover on Android device. So simply open the app, than tapo and done. I honestly would pay extra 5$ a month if they turn this option off. So purely designed.

@lkenlken i had the same issue and this is how i fixed it
for me continuous monitoring is only possible when there is a single active monitoring device. if you have loaded tapo app on multiple devices then you need to stop the app on those. on the primary monitoring device turn off mobile data. disable mobile data for the tapo app as well. make sure the camera and monitor are on the same eigi network. i did all this and continuous monitoring persisted for 12 hours. i then started tapo on another device. after about 20 minutes i got the 5 minute inactivity prompt on the primary monitoring device. hope this helps.

@Solla-topee Thanks a lot for the tip! I'm watching my baby on iPad via Tapo application and this prompt annoyed me for a long time - you saved my last nerve cells.
All I had to do was enable LAN in the tapo settings on iPad.
