Manually deleting video from SD card
Just set up TC85 cameras and have them successfully recording events to the SD card. Is there a way to manually delete unwanted videos from the card using the App? Or does the until keep recording/storing files until full, then begins to overwrite the oldest one first without any way to do manual cleanup?
TIA
Phil

@Phil-L seems obvious it was intended to "incentivise" the purchase of their online accounts...or maybe I'm just an old cynic.

So it is true? I just asked on another thread if Tapo Care with Cloud Services can do this. Can you upload individual recordings or multiple recordings from the SD Card to Cloud Storage? Then sift through recordings you wanted to keep and those you wanted to delete?

@WSC4 It's able to delete the individual cloud video clips but is unable to upload the recordings from the SD card to the cloud...

That is disappointing, and I just found that out the hard way this morning.
I started the Tapo Care Free Trial for 30 days, then did a few test detections on the camera and they are there on the cloud. Hit the < icon to October and nothing is showing. The SD Card has every day with the blue dot, and I was hoping the Cloud server would sync to it to allow exporting.
Even with the Delete facility, I find it too tedious to delete just one file at a time.
//UPDATE//
I have cancelled my Tapo Care Free Trail and will never use Tapo Cloud Storage again. I also found it very slow. There has got to be a better way.
