Is 3.0 going to solve the problem of "zoomed in" faces and license plates can Not be recognized or read using C320WS and C325WB cameras?
Will all my devices transfer over once i log in?
Once you link your Kasa Account from within the Tapo app, the Kasa devices that are currently available for use in the Tapo App will automatically be available in the Tapo app. This FAQ is linked during the process, but should have the most up to date list of compatible devices: Cannot Find a Kasa device in Tapo App During Setup
The C320XX Cameras do not feature an optical zoom and relies on digital zoom, which simply zooms in on the pixels that are being recorded by the camera. To help with the clarity of images, make sure that your device is using the highest video quality possible so that there will be more pixels available at a smaller scale. If this is happening at night, there are a few things that can be done such as limiting light interference.
Has the beta ended for the C425?
Is Kasa app getting discontinued?
@Aravot ,
No, there are no plans to discontinue the Kasa App, especially as it is continuing to have new features developed for it and we intend to continue releasing smart home products. Adding Kasa devices to your Tapo app is simply a quality of life improvement for users who have devices from both brands. Now you can control your smart home from one app.
I have a Kasa KD110 doorbell and a Tapo C420 camera and hub. I've added both to the Tapo app (3.0.507). While I get alerts from the C420 camera, I don't get alerts from the KD110, even though the app shows alerts are configured. Has anyone else observed similar behavior?
Attached are screen shots of the configuration screens.
It would be cool if Away mode could be activated with Google Home's presence mode.
Can we please get the ability to share access access and control to our Kasa devices with another TP Link ID, like you can with Tapo devices?
