Schedule day/night (IR) mode
I'd like to be able to set a schedule for the day/night (IR) mode on my cameras.
As of today I can only choose between AUTO, DAY or NIGHT in the Tapo app.
Under some conditions the cameras don't switch to NIGHT mode because there is a bright light somewhere in the frame. Although the picture is good in DAY
mode even in dim conditions, I've noticed that the image quality increases substantially when forced to NIGHT mode.
Im running the latest updates for the app and the cameras.

I'm not sure if that request should be here or new topic.
Add Night Mode, Day Mode and Auto Mode to smart actions.
I think it would be easier to implement for now, than requested schedules.

I would also love this feature. I have a light on my garage that creates just enough light to prevent the IR Night Mode from turning on. I have dark areas of my video where it’s blurry.

Please take a look at the image I have attached. I use a C520WS and I want to schedule the IR night mode to turn on from 7 pm to 6 am. Please take a look at the extremely bright light reflecting off my car, due to this I am unable to see who might tamper with it and the auto mode does not awitch to night mode.

Check the date of this threat - two years old. TP-link is not going to implement this kind of simple features as they want to sell yet another generation of their HW with a little bit better "starlight" capabilities. And yet another and yet another generation. Scheduled IR would decrease their HW sales. So, not going to happen and users, which have e.g some background lights in the garden are going to suffer.
