Under Consideration 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

Although I've been getting encouraging noises from Tapo UK for months, nothing has changed. And now, to cap it all, my C410 unit has failed completely.
Won't make the mistake of buying TP-Link / Tapo security products again.

Seriously, this is still under concideration? Or does anyone know if it's coming very soon, or do I have to get a new one from a manufacturer who understood the point with it to begin with, and that also understand to implement a function apparently plenty of user are asking for.

@Phil-TC85 After reading three years of people asking for this it's time for someone to point a powerful vibe-coding AI at the Tapco software and see if they can add this basic feature. I don't think there are any software developers left at the company?

I suspect there any enogh coders in this comunity that could add this feature in just a few minutes, if we could get into it....

Just installed my cameras and loving them so far, but the inability to delete recordings from SD card storage without disturbing the camera alignment (removing the SD card) or wiping it entirely is ridiculous.
Please add a delete button on the playback page so I can keep the important ones and delete the daily arrival of my mailman.
A delete button is such an obviously needed feature, the lack of one definitely means I can't recommend Tapo TPlink cameras to anyone without mentioning this flaw.

Hey guys,
Just did a firmware update on my CW230WS camera and I can now delete individual videos. Whoopee. Only another 2 cameras and a doorbell to go.
They listened to us and I'm guessing a rollout of the feature has begun,
Thanks for (finally) listening, Tapo.
