TP-Link Tapo

Easy to use and to set up devices and it has some basic automation features. However the app comes with issues. I've had it not sent camera alerts through, despite them coming over my smart speakers. Worst is the notifications. They've bundled all of them together, so the same sound is used for motion alert, firmware ready to install, battery drain. Wich is bad as you want a distinctive sound for motion alert. I don't get the impression they will fix this

Using the app for Tapo C211. Works like a charm- most of the time. Layout & UI is well thought out. At times the camera feed gets stuck as if it's a 5fps footage even when it's running at 25fps. Wifi runs at 100Mbps with a strong signal for devices. Tried switching to 720p and the issue persists. Once the power outage occurs, the camera restarts but the app doesn't connect at all. When it works it works well. Not sure if its camera issue or app issue. And its Day 2 of purchase.

I feel like this is false advertising. My C425 cameras advertised that they are compatible with Google Home but it appears they are not viewable from in the app. This means that if you have cameras from multiple manufacturers you are unable to view them all in one place. Unfortunately, this is a deal breaker and I will be returning these cameras. Also, linking the tapo app caused all my TP-Link light switches to become unreachable, I had to add them all back manually.
