This article will show you how to view continuous recordings on the Tapo app.

Note:

  1. A microSD card is needed for continuous recording. Insert the microSD card and initiate it using the Tapo app.
  2. The camera models without a microSD card slot do not have this feature.
  3. The battery-powered cameras (such as Tapo C420, C400, D230, etc.) do not support the continuous recording feature.

For Tapo Cameras

Here we take Tapo C200 as an example.

Step 1.

On the Home page of the Tapo app:

  • Click on your camera model card to go to the Live View page.
  • Click on the icon at the top right corner of the Live View page to go to the Device Settings page.
  • Tap Storage & Recording and then ensure the microSD Card Recording feature is enabled.

Step 2.

Click on Recording Schedule to see the detailed recording schedule settings.

Tap Edit on the Recording Schedule page if you want to change the Continuous Recording and Detection Recording schedule.

And please tap the tick icon at the top right corner to save your changes.

Step 3.

On the camera’s Live View page, tap Playback & Download, select the SD Card icon on the Playback page, select the date, and then you can drag the timeline to view the continuous recordings.

For Kasa Cameras

Here we take KC115 as an example.

Step 1.

  • Click on your camera model card to go to the Live View page.
  • Click on the icon at the top right corner of the Live View page to go to the Device Settings page.
  • Tap Storage & Recording and then ensure the microSD Card Recording feature is enabled.
