  @Solla-topee The Tapo C200 is the most popular model on Amazon DE by far, yet the Smart Actions functionality is not even planned for it?

 

What is the logic behind this decision?

 

Even when I click on the Smart Actions section and on the link for no cameras found, the first one that appears in the site is the C200. This is quite misleading.

 

Please prioritize the implementation for the C200 camera.

 

Thanks!

  @Dimi_BG you are absolutely right. I don't know why they still have not even decided to implement the function.

This is just ridiculous and misleading, as you pointed out.

What really bothers me is that they are developing the function for a model that IS NOT EVEN OUT YET!

  @Solla-topee 

It is must feature of camera software especially in today's world where everything is going to be smart.

 

It's very bad on part of TP Link company to not having this feature for other cameras like tapo c200 and c 210.

 

Please provide Automation Function as soon as possible.

the product manager should be fired for not having this feature implemented for Tapo c200 after requesting this for 2 years.

  @spooker Not sure about the C200, but I got a firmware update today for the C210 and I think I have read somewhere that the C200 now also has the detection trigger.
Try to update the app/firmware.

  @Mrtnn 

New firmware Update for C210? I didn't get anything.

What's the new firmware version? 

 

Does it have triggers? 

 

Thanks

  @Plazmex Yes it does have triggers, just coming from work to test, but it doesnt work lol..  It works, something was wrong with my rules I think!
The triggers are added and the options look fine: (motion detected, crying baby detected and person detected)

I tried putting my tapo lightbulb on for 5 seconds (red) when motion is detected, and that now works.

Tapo version is: 2.9.14. Not sure where I can see the firmware version..

Here is a screenshot (in Dutch):
It says:
When
camera - motion detected
Then:
White 100% Turn on (lightbulb)

Delay action

It just started to work, maybe there was something wrong with my rules.. (tried a shortcut (on/off) first, now I just selected device(lamp) On, and that works) Also possible that I have to get the app out of the list with apps that are put to sleep when not used (battery saver). Have to check that.

  @Mrtnn 

You can see the firmware version in the camera settings page, just press on the camera name and there you have it.
