QA

Q1: What should I do if the reset fails?

A1:

Make sure your camera can be powered on.
Please do not operate after power-on, wait 10 minutes and try to reset again.

Q2: Does camera reset affect Tapo Care?

A2: The Tapo Care subscription is linked to your TP-Link ID. Resetting your camera will not affect your subscription, provided it has not expired.

However, after resetting and reconfiguring the camera, you need to add it back to the Tapo Care plan: Go to Tapo app > Me > Tapo Care page, tap Select Camera on the plan, select the camera to apply to Tapo Care and confirm the selection.

If no Tapo Care plan appears on the Tapo Care page, make sure you are logged in to the Tapo App with the TP-Link account that purchased the subscription.
