@TapoC410solar hello I have the same issue, did you mange to find a workaround?

Thanks!!

Hello, no solution except having the habit to enabling/disabling pricacy mode on demand and having a light on

the camera is outside, and we have an automatic light based on a motion sensor for the night

the problem appears only at night

if light off when switching off privacy mode = false detection
if light on when switching off privacy mode = no false detection

so we raised the timer duration of the light, this way when we leave the camera area, I have a moment to enable again the monitoring of the Tapo (aka switching off privacy mode) 

basicly it's like that :
I enable privacy mode
go outside (at night)
sensor light on goes on 
do my stuff
go inside
light still on for some minutes with the timer
I disable privacy mode 
No false detection

If I switch the light off before disable privacy mode 
False detection

@TapoC410solar thanks for the info, unfortunately not applicable in my case.

@Wayne-TP any help on this one please?

Ideally I see two solutions:

- fix the firmware to avoid these false positives when light conditions changed from previous time

- allow the possibility to control other settings than only the enable/disable privacy mode. E.g. why I cannot control also enable/disable alarms or notifications? With this we can imagine some workarounds

and why not doing both :D

Thanks!
