I own 13 Tapo cameras at my work and home.

I use a small C100 outside my office door as a live feed to a Redmi A3 phone.

I have been running this setup for about 2 years without issue; the camera feed is live all day on the phone, which is used for nothing else but running the Tapo app for this purpose. I found this easier than setting up an RTSP or ONVIF setup.

A few days ago, the Redmi phone updated to Android 15 (V816.0.10.0), and ever since, the Tapo app's live view only stays up for 3–10 minutes and then crashes the whole phone, causing it to reboot.

The issue has rendered the entire setup useless to me. I cleared the app's cache with no result. I reinstalled the Tapo app (v3.14.116), which did not help, and finally factory reset the entire phone and reinstalled the Tapo app, but the problem persists.

Is this a known issue? If so, I will hang on for a bug fix; if not, I will scrap the setup for a different, more robust solution, even though I would like to remain in the Tapo ecosystem.

Please advise.
