Turn off notifications when at home
Please someone help me before I throw my cameras across the room. I'm sure it can't be that hard.
How can I stop the two cameras I have, which are the Tapo C125 and the C120 from sending me notifications when I am actually sitting in my own house.
I cannot stand the constant notifications when I walk across the room , when my dogs move or if they bark.
but I need all these notifications when Im away from home.
I've looked online but the instructions aren't anything like my App shows.
Surely with geocaching it should be so simple to literally stop all notifications when I walk in and turn them on again when I walk out.
Thanks in advance

Hi @Rosiei,
In the app, go into the cameras option, select the 3 dots on the home mode icon this will allow you to set detection, recording and notification options for your "Home mode" for each camera. Simarly for away mode you can then turn them back on.
Once set up you can select the Home or Away mode to turn notifications on/off.
NOTE: this will override the existing detection, recording and notification settings for the cameras, but once set up it makes it quick and easy.
Unfortunately it is not possible automatically set Home or Away mode using geofencing (I.e. when you leave/arrive home). However, it is possible to set the cameras in/out of privacy mode using geofencing and automation. Let me know if you would like some help to do that and I can provide some steps/advice.
