Chiming in that we just installed - it is almost 2026 and we still cannot delete individual recordings?! Agreed it would be especially nice to clear out nonsense recordings as they come. This reminds me of someone who never cleans up their work email

  @Solla-topee I recently purchased and installed two C245 cameras and am voting for the ability to delete specific unwanted video from the SD card from the TP-Link Tapo phone app.  My cameras are mounted high up requiring a ladder to access and remove the SD card, which is not as convenient as would using the phone app.  I do understand the continuous use overwriting may make deleting files unnecessary.

Would be nice to be able to delete individual recordings stored on the micro SD card of the Tapo camera doorbell D130.

I had 3 Blink cameras that I brought 4 years ago. Initially Blink also did not allow you to delete individual videos. This was really annoying! About a year ago they added the ability to delete individual video clips. So I am really surprised that Tapo doesn't have this feature too. I just bought 3 Tapo cameras, but will just have to return them.

Trying to generate new interest in this feature . With dozens of "detected events", once you've viewed it and decided it was nothing, deleting it would be VERY HELPFUL to remove the clutter and then only have important detected events left that you care about. PLEASE ADD THIS FEATURE!!

Trying to generate traffic / interest in this feature.  This is basic functionality that should be part of the software.  

When you have dozens of detected events, when you look at one and determine it's nothing or irrelevant, it would be great to be able to delete it.  Then only the important detected events are left.  This allows us to eliminate clutter and keep our Playback / Download folder cleaned up.

 

PLEASE update the app to allow us to manually delete invididual detected events.

The ability to delete individual recordings on an SD card would be a huge upgrade - very cumbersome to have to remove & delete from a computer or reformat the card from the app. 

 

Thanks

What is taking so long with this update? 2026 already... A must have feature and it's really hard to think a single good reason why not implement this as soon as possible. I will not personally suggest TP-Link products for anyone before this problem is solved and I will post about this flaw with one star review in every shopping site where these cameras are been sold here in my country until you fix this. I really can't recommend these products for anyone with this kind of flaw in the app. The models I have are C120 and C125 which are from the low cost end so if this is model based feature I think these models will get the update last if ever with this kind of development...
