Sunday
Model: Tapo C225  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version: 1.2.2

The point of buying a tapo pan camera like my C225 is to be able to cover a wider 360 degree area when my pet moves. 

 

It totally makes sense for a pan camera to stay at the last detected position because it goes from A to B and will only come back from B to A. It removes so much value of the pan camera with the current behaviour of returning back to A after losing tracking at B.

 

 

To the support team, please feedback to the engineers and allow users an option to select this setting. It is not difficult to implement such feature

Hi,

 After the camera finishes tracking an event, it may stay at the last tracked position for 30 seconds if no new events are detected, then it will return to the preset viewpoint.

We’ve noted your feedback about allowing the pan camera (such as the C225) to stay at the last tracked position instead of returning to the preset viewpoint, and we will pass this request along to the engineering team for consideration.


In addition, you may also consider posting this idea in the Feature Request section of the community. This helps gather more visibility and support from other users, which can further prioritize the feature.

 

Best Regards,
