 Hello@Kelli18We are so sorry to hear what happen to your mom and I hope she gets well soon. I will try our best on your case and here are tips that worth a try.

You could tap the clip and see if the video is available.   Try to end the Kasa app process, reopen the app and see the clip are accessible.

The ' X' could mean some issues happen when the clip uploaded to cloud and that make it irretrievable.

If same issue persists, please help confirm some case details in my post below, thank you.

@Solla-topee  I have tried all the suggestions you said and still no luck. It seems very odd once my trial period ended and I now pay for the subscription there are many times within a day that the footage is unavailable as it didn't upload correctly. I see other people have had the same issue and feel you guys need to investigate further as it seems to be something with your cloud storage. Absolutely had no issues at all until I had to start paying. VERY ODD.  If this doesn't get resolved soon I will be making a review on all social media platforms and Google NOT to purchase your product. I hope you can get this sorted very soon as I am losing my patience with the issues. We purchased it for security and protection and the function of the camera does not work. This is NOT FIT DOR PURPOSE and I want my money back one for the subscription I now pay monthly that only have recordings upload and 2 for the camera as is is a lemon.  Seems strange many are having the same issues so please go back and look at your cloud.
