hi all!

i fixed the problem by installing mouse mover on Android device. So simply open the app, than tapo and done. I honestly would pay extra 5$ a month if they turn this option off. So purely designed. 

  @lkenlken  i had the same issue and this is how i fixed it

for me continuous monitoring is only possible when there is a single active monitoring device.  if you have loaded tapo app on multiple devices then you need to stop the app on those.  on the primary monitoring device turn off mobile data. disable mobile data for the tapo app as well.  make sure the camera and monitor are on the same eigi network. i did all this and continuous monitoring persisted for 12 hours.  i then started tapo on another device.  after about 20 minutes i got the 5 minute inactivity prompt on the primary monitoring device. hope this helps.
