C310 Error, It looks like you've reached your device limit for playing this video
I've had my camera almost 6 months but today I've found I can't view any recorded video on it?? I get the error 'It looks like you've reached your device limit for playing this video Please again later'
Recordings are still not available so I'd really appreciate knowing what is causing this problem and how to fix it. The camera is only paired with one device, my phone, so there is no sharing conflict.
Any advice much appreciated

Hello@gizmo19900
Currently Tapo APP only allows 1 device to watch Playback at the same time, when there is more than 1 device trying to view Playback at that time, the message "you have reached your device limit for playing this video.' will pop up.
May I know have you ever shared your account with family members?
If you confirm only 1 phone is try to watch Playback at that time, can I have more exact time point when that happens, e.g. 8:30AM time zone UTC:+1
Please also confirm your Tapo APP is up-to-date, and share a photo of the message, model of your phone and its Android or IOS version, thank you.

@Solla-topee Hi, thanks for your reply.
I have never shared my account with anyone. This happens all the time now, I can no longer view any recordings at all. This happened suddenly on 29th Oct. The camera is online and I can access live video through it on my phone. I'm getting sent detection notifications fine too, so that part of the process is working perfectly. My Tapo app is up to date and my phone is an iphone SE running iOS 11. The Tapo app supports iOS 9 and up. Here's a photo of the screen I get,
Thanks again for your help in this matter.
