Hi,
Thanks for your post.
After checking with the team, we can confirm that the Tapo C720 currently does not support setting specific detection types (such as person or pet) to trigger the floodlight. That said, we completely understand your request. We’ve recorded your feedback and will forward it to the relevant team for evaluation.
If you’re looking to achieve similar behavior on the C720, you may consider using Smart Actions as a workaround. For example, you can create a Smart Action so that when the C720 detects a person, the floodlight is turned on. This setup can help approximate the trigger logic available on the C710.
If you’re open to it, you may also update your post to clearly state the feature request — such as “Request: Allow C720 floodlight to be triggered by different detection types”. I can then help move the post to the Feature Feedback section so it can be tracked more effectively.
Best Regards,
