Why can't you access the camera's live feed on the Google Home App?
The Public Preview in Google Home offers currently in-development features for users who opt into the program.
The features added through this program will often have limited compatibility, require further updates before they are officially supported, or may break due to changes in the feature's implementation during development.

The "Access live streams for Works with Google cameras" feature is under the Public Preview program. It's still under development by Google and is not available for all cameras and brands.
Our teams are aware that the feature is currently not available for Tapo Cameras and are in close communication with Google regarding future compatibility.
We appreciate your patience as we await future updates from Google.
