Tapo app shows incorrect time of recordings but the timestamp in the video is correct

So my Tapo app is showing incorrect time of recordings but the actual timestamp in the video is correct. I would like to get this fixed as it creates a confusion.
So the timestamp in the video recording is synced correctly with my phone but for some reason the tapo app shows incorrect time of recordings.

Is this a problem with cloud video or local recording (SD card)? What's the time difference?
What's the version of your Tapo app? Please make sure it is updated.

@Wayne-TP for me too, the timestamp in the video is correct, but the playback is showing the recordings in incorrect timings. I'm saving the videos to the cloud.

Hi @Wayne-TP
The problem seems to be only with cloud recordings. When I open the cameras in the app and go into "Playback & Downloads" the thumbnails show incorrect time.
The Tapo app and camera firmware are up to date.

Our tech team has located the cause of this problem, and the relevant modifications will be added in the next app update, version 3.13.109, which should start the release soon.
A beta app is available now to address this issue. You can try using this app to see if it helps.
Thanks @Wayne-TP .
The trial version works for now. My Samsung phone seems to have got the updated version 3.13.109 but I'll have to wait for my Vivo X200 pro.

I'm experiencing a similar issue. My Tapo app is showing incorrect time of recordings in the "playback list" but the actual timestamp in the video is correct.
model: Tapo C425
firmware: see below
Tapo app running on iPhone and iPad
All recordings are on local SD card. I'm not using any cloud storage.
