Choose notification sound
I am using this camera with my iPhone (iOS) device. My mother has an android phone, she is using the TAPO app with. On android you can choose a notification sound for intrusion. On iPhone you can not. So now I have the same sound for twitter, calendar and HOME INTRUSION. And when I hear a sound I don't know wether someone likes my tweet, or someone is braking into my house. Could you please enable an option to choose the sound for TAPO app (camera)? Thanks.

@Milanche Basically you can change the sound for all cameras, but all cameras get the same one sound. This is adequate if you only have one camera, but the moment you have more than one camera it becomes frustrating. Right now I'm at my parent's place and back at my home I have a bunch of cameras for different purposes. I have cameras to monitor when my pet cat enters through the cat flap, and cameras to monitor for intrusions. My cat uses the cat flap several times a day, which means I'm getting alerts all the time. If an intruder enters my property, I would get exactly the same alert sound, so I've decided to turn off alerts for my cat cameras since it gets very annoying and protecting my property is the top priority. Ideally I would like a gentle and discreet sound for cat cameras, and an ear-piercing sound for intrusion detection cameras. I do want to be woken up in the middle of the night if an intrusion occurs.

I purchased this camera a while ago but due to an accident didn't install it. Today I set it up without any issues...... until I got my first round of notification while in my car, didn't hear a thing. I have used many camera apps in the past and this is the first one that on my iPhone i can not change anything, it's so quiet that it might as well just not exist. I will have to scrap this and get a different system. It's a shame as I was going to buy 3 m

@Milanche on iOS I don't know. On Android you can set a different sound for each app in system preferences, in app info > notifications.
