  @Bethanybeach,

It would depend on the type of control you are referring to, the device sharing feature keeps this in mind and doesnt provide complete control over the camera to another account. As there are no extra permission settings, your next best bet would be to turn towards either our official integrations (Amazon, Google, Samsung) to share the video feed with family members, or to use the networked RTSP stream with a third-party app if it is a non-battery camera.

 

 

From the FAQ: Device Sharing with Tapo Devices

 

  • Tapo Cameras, Doorbells, and Robot Vacuums may be shared with up to five (5) TP-Link Accounts, and Other Smart Home Devices may be shared with up to eight (8) other accounts.
  • These accounts will have access to the Live View, Talk, Voice Call, Pan/Tilt Control, and the SD Card Video Features of the Camera, but will be unable to change the other settings of the camera.
  • Shared Doorbells will also provide quick response and Ring/Call Features
  • Please ensure that the firmware of your Tapo device and your Tapo App is up to date.
  • Some devices may not currently support the device-sharing feature, but the Tapo app will inform you that the sharing feature is not supported by the device.
