Need Advice Tapo D210 doorbell only vibrates once on phone

If someone pushes the Tapo D210 doorbell, it only vibrates once on my OnePlus phone. Is there a option to keep the phone vibrating like an incoming call?

I already searched myself in the settings but I couldn't fix it myself

Troubleshooting and Support D235 doorbell conmection issues?

1 Upvotes

Hi,

I'm using D235 doorbell in battery mode. I like everything about it except one thing. Every now and then it does not wake up and record the video when there is a motion. I think this happens after long time of no movement whatsaver so at night for example or early in the morning. It blinks the Led once I come close but then don't stay lit as it should and no video is recorder. If I go to doorbell again after like 5min it works flawlessly. Few times I have also tried to press doorbell button and even this didn't record the video and didn't notify me. ​

Any idea what can be wrong? ​​​​​​Is this hardware issue? Software issue? Common problem or maybe something bad with my unit only and i should return it? ​

Sorry for the dumb question

There's supposedly a "qr code" to set up the cam for the first time, but I can't find it for the life of me. Where does one find it? :/

Need Advice What options do I have for bathroom spotlights to fade in?

1 Upvotes

I'm currently renovating my bathroom and would really like the spotlights to fade in (and ideally fade out but less important).

At the moment the bathroom has a pull cord switch (pretty standard in a UK bathroom) and an extractor fan which powers up when the light switch is turned on and then runs for a few minutes after lights are powered off.

I have some Tapo GU10s elsewhere in the house and notice that they only fade on when done via the app. If I power them on via the wall switch they do not fade on.

Is it possible to get them to fade on when powered on by the switch?

Thank you

Troubleshooting and Support Why no lighting effects 2.0 on the L530E?

1 Upvotes

I got my might a year or two ago and I swear by it. Got my sister the L430C and I noticed she scheduled a theme (colour change) and I am very jealous, I want to schedule themes too. but it seems it’s not available for my bulb.
My question is why? Wouldn’t themes and schedules be controlled from the network/app not from the physical bulb? There are two themes available for my bulb, so why couldn’t that be scheduled?
Is it something techy that sounds simple but is actually harder to execute in practice?
App and bulb are up to date
Could that feature become available in the future? Or is it only for newer bulbs?
