Notification Bug on Android?
Hi. Have just purchased a couple of these cameras and both appear working reasonably well apart from a couple of annoyances. I will post these under their respective topics but the first revolves around the false triggers to rain drops at night and the constant annoyong notifications. Reading through these forums it would appear that if I want motion tracking active I will have to live with the motion detection notifications (lowering the sensitivity doesn't work. I can only prevent raindrop detection by completely turning off motion tracking and retaining Person Tracking). However, I need the notifications in case of any genuine triggers but do not want the constant sound. On Android notifications there is an option to select the app creating the notifications and select whether you want sound or silent (or vibrate). Unfortunately the Tapo app seems to ignore or override these settings and will use a notification sound even when set to silent on the phone. I have a Google Pixel 5 & 6A both have the latest Android 14 with Nov security update. Any ideas whether the app or Android is at fault here (it's worse mentioning the phone notification options work fine with all the other apps I use)?
@Solla-topee thank you for your reply.
As you have stated, because there is no sound notification on/off option in the app settings, we are reliant on the phone sound settings. Unfortunately, on my phones (Google Pixel 5 & 6A with Android 14, Nov security update) even when these are set to silent (via Settings -> Notifications -> App Notifications -> Tapo (slider on) -> Miscellaneous (slider on) -> Silent, notification sounds are still heard. As you can imagine this gets annoying real quick when it is raining etc.
I have attached a screenshot of the Android Setting screen (reached as per the above) and a video of the notification sound being made regardless. This Android silent notification function seems to work flawlessly on all my other apps (Facebook, WhatsApp etc.)
