I just bought several cameras and the H500 hub to replace my eufy system.

 

If I had known that I was going to have to pay for rich notifications on each camera, I would have found a different service: probably Wyze, since I'm seeing on here that they have free rich notifications. 

 

I'd even be willing to do a tiered pay plan for just the rich notification, because frankly, of the Tapo Care benefits, that's all I need, having the Hub.

 

Given that this goes back 2024, though, I think I should probably just take advantage of my return window.

No storage is needed for this. This basic functionality shouldn't be a "premium" feature.

Just bought 5 brand new Tapo cameras to swap out my broken ones from another manufacturer... After installing them I realises that image preview is behind a paywall?! Please open this just to everyone like other manufacturers. Otherwise I need to return them and buy Eufy or something else.

I just migrated to tapo from a eufy security system. Eufy is no fees and no subscription required and they offer rich notifications for free as part of standard functionality. I never thought to consider it not being available for free when i switched to tapo. Long story short....I very much agree that this should be a standard *free* feature of the system. Especially if you purchased the h500 hub as I have.

This is included with other brands, really want this as it’s the only thing missing with Tapo. Safety and quick response is important sometimes and that snapshot would help immensely. I also bought cameras not realizing this one feature is paywalled. It seemed like it would not be before purchase.
