Being new to this device, (C310 camera) I have been running it for some time now and as it's only got a 56GB card in, I wanted to know just how much has currently been used. It is set to "loop record"

Grateful for directionsangel

Hi,
On the Tapo app > Camera's Device Settings > Storage & Recording > Local Storage page, you can see the storage state of the inserted SD card.
Best Regards

@Solla-topee thanks for that!

I have been there before but forgot how I had achieved it!blush

I've only just noticed that there is a Tapo logo/watermark in both camera and recordings view!

Not important, but I wonder about my powers of observation!

I'm convinced it wasn't there last time I looked, am I really losing my marbles?surprise
 

Having checked the card, I'm quite pleasantly surprised that after 12 day's activity the card is only a quarter full!

Very economical!

Hi @DirtyLilMonkey,

 

Just FYI, you can switch displaying logo off if you want.

  @SecCamFan wow! Thanks for that, I thought I was losing the plot!

I was sure it wasn't there originally!

I must have inadvertently turned it on,

i don't mind it showing, it was just in a spot I was examining.

good to know these things.

thank you.
