Model: Tapo C120  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

Hey guys. I recently bought 6 Tapo 120 cameras for inside my home and outside. I love them except I don't need to receive notifications while I'm home and around my house. I really only want to receive notifications while I'm sleeping and while I'm away. But I want them enabled and recording all the time. Is there a way to do this? I also have an iPhone 14 if that makes any difference.

Hi,
If you want to receive notification only at a fixed time period, on the camera's Device Settings > Notifications page, you can set a Schedule after enabling the Notification feature.

 

If you have irregular schedules for staying at home, leaving home, and sleeping, you may toggle on/off the notification feature on the Tapo app > Me > Notifications page. After disabling the Device option, all your Tapo devices in the Tapo app won't send you notifications. However, the camera's detection and recording features won't be affected.
 
Best Regards

  @Solla-topee thank you! Do you happen to know if there is a quick toggle for notifications or if I can create one possibly?

Hi,
Besides turning off the Device option in the Tapo app > Me > Notifications page to turn off notifications for all cameras, you can also turn on or off all cameras' notification feature through Home/Away mode. The detailed instructions are below.

Currently, there is no other quick toggle to enable or disable notifications for all cameras.
