I am writing to request a crucial update for the Kasa EC71 Pan-Tilt Camera to address a security and privacy issue with the status LED. Currently, the LED stays solid green even when I or someone else is actively viewing the live stream through the app. This is frustrating because it offers no way to know when the camera is actually "in use."

I previously used a Blink camera, and its LED would turn solid blue the moment someone opened the live feed. This provided instant peace of mind. I really think the Kasa EC71 should do something similar.

I urge you to release a firmware update that allows the LED to change color or flash during live viewing. At the very least, please add this as an optional setting in the Kasa app, so users who prioritize privacy can choose to enable this important visual indicator.
