Make idle timing optional
I would like to monitor my home/kids/nanny from work. However after 2 minute on multiple cam view, app pops up a window saying "You have viewed the live video for 2 minutes without any operation. Continue the viewing?"
Also at home I have 2.4 GHz and 5GHz networks, Tapo can only use 2.4GHz, I am using 5GHz for better performance. The app still thinks I am on a different WiFi, even though all devices are on the same IP subnet, and shows the same idle message.
People are purchasing your camera for security, to view their house/nanny/kids. This "feature" makes your product completely useless.
I have broadband connection at both place so bandwidth usage is not a concern, so don't tell me to save bandwidth you have implemented this feature.
I don't want to deal with 3rd party software, RTSP, port forwarding etc. so please don't suggest that as well.
I have tried other brands, none of them has this issue. I don't want to start talking about other issues that you have not fixed over the years but I regret that I have chosen Tapo cameras.
This idle issue has been addressed multiple times in this community, even 2 years ago! Just make the idle timing optional so we can view the video continuously.
My suspicion is that tp-link insist on keeping this feature to limit the usage on their server side, that has to be reason. If I am right than include this feature in "tapo care", who pays can watch video stream continuously.
