Model: TC85 KIT  
Hardware Version: V2
Firmware Version: 1.1.6

Hello. I recently bought Tapo TC-85 Kit camera. Everything seems normal during day, motion detection is working and I'm receiving notification to Tapo app.
But at night, motion detection isn't working. I have all detections turned ON, sensitivity on max (10), night/day mode on auto, but camera isn't detecting motion on itself.
Only when I open Tapo app and turn on live view, then camera detecting movement at night. 

Can you please help?

Please run a range detection test at night, see how that works. How to test the detection range of Tapo battery camera
