  @Wayne-TP thank you for taking the time to consider this request. I am in agreement that a Tapo TV app would be super useful, not as much for the automation for me, but rather specifically the CCTV. If the TAPO app can view the cameras on the TV, it reduces the need for me for a third party NVR for constant monitoring feed. The TV is just much more convenient than the phone or laptop.

 

I am sure others would agree, this may be a starting point and if there is further interest, perhaps the other automation functions can be built out.

 

regards

clive

Because this would allow the user to have a dedicated screen for displaying their cameras 24/7, similar to traditional DVR setups. Sure the user can manage the cameras from a phone or tablet, however it's much more convenient to view it on a larger screen

It would be useful to watch and control cameras directly on the TV, especially for parents who don't have a device.

One screen can select multiple cameras to display, can control the camera angle adjustment, and can record real-time video and screenshots in time.

  @Wayne-TP the viewing experience on a big screen alone is worth the app on Android Tv and Apple TV.  Monitoring office, home or baby will be very very much easier on a big screen than on a tablet or a phone.  We have more than 10 Tapo cameras, monitoring on a tablet will need eyeglasses hahaha.

Hello everyone, regarding this feature request, we would like to understand what you specifically want to accomplish with the app on the TV. Please share your thoughts with us so that our product team can better understand this feature request and evaluate it.

 

  1. Watch Tapo camera.
  2. Control other Tapo smart devices. >> A question: why not use a phone or tablet?  Personally, touch controls are likely much more convenient than using a TV remote.
  3. Others - Leave a comment!

So please, hope we can have this.

Hi I would like to just let the camera play on the tv. Having to watch the video over a phone or tablet drains alot of battery and it's inconvenient.

 

If it is playing on  the tv, I can just do my other things and come and see the screen every now and then.

 

Also the size is bigger.

 

Kindly let me know if there's a fix

Hi, it would be if tapo can be viewed on the TV using google TV or FireTV via Tapo App so it can be used like other security cameras where you can just view each camera in the panel on the TV. I have tried iSpy but quality is poor and very unstable connection.
