Pressing Away Mode deleted Detection Zones settings off 5 cameras - NO WARNING
I have never use the Away Mode, but I pressed it accidentally. In fine print underneath: Tap to activate which will overwrite detection setting of all cameras.
All my 5 camera detection settings / presets have been deleted.
I never used the Home Mode and setup all my cameras with the Manage button / Device Setting / Detection et cetera.
Is there anyway I can restore those settings / presets please? Are they saved to a configuration file withing the Android Tapo app file system? I did a backup some time ago, so I could get to it from there, but I don't know what file to look for.
I have never setup Home Or Away mode. I do not need them. Somehow, inadvertently, the Away mode had some settings. I don't know how they got there. Anyway, I have removed them.
"The Away mode and Home mode settings will overwrite the current settings of the camera". There should be a warning message like this:.
"To go back to the original settings after pressing the Away mode, it's suggested to go to each camera's Device Settings page to change the settings again."
That is what I had to do, and it was a real pain. I hope this horrible situation never happens again.
