Hey Tapo team and community,

 

Love the ecosystem overall — just got the D235 doorbell set up and it's been great. I've also got a few P304M smart strips running and everything works really well together.

 

One thing I've hit a wall with though — I'm trying to set up geofencing automations for both myself and my wife so that the doorbell camera automatically exits privacy mode when we both leave the house. The issue is that as a shared user, my wife can see and control all the shared plugs and bulbs fine, but the D235 doesn't show up at all when she tries to set up an automation. Privacy mode control on cameras seems to be locked to the account owner only.

 

This feels like a really common use case — most households have more than one person and being able to trigger privacy mode based on multiple phones leaving the property is kind of essential for the geofencing feature to actually work properly.

 

Would love to see shared users get the ability to control camera privacy mode via automations in a future update. Even a simple toggle in the sharing permissions to allow it would do the job.

 

Thanks for considering it!
