Customer Ratings & Reviews

The TP-Link Tapo Indoor Wired Camera has truly exceeded my expectations, especially considering its affordable price point. The clarity and crispness of the footage it captures during the day are remarkable, offering a level of detail that ensures I never miss a moment. One standout feature is its exceptional night vision capability. The camera provides a clear and well-lit view even in low-light conditions, allowing me to monitor my space effectively 24/7. The infrared technology ensures that every corner is visible, providing a sense of security during nighttime hours. Setting up the camera was a breeze, thanks to the user-friendly Tapo app. The app not only simplifies the installation process but also offers convenient remote access to the camera's feed. It's a user-friendly solution that enhances the overall experience. Considering its affordability, the TP-Link Tapo Indoor Wired Camera stands out as a budget-friendly option without compromising on quality. It's a reliable choice for anyone seeking a cost-effective yet feature-packed security camera.

Camera works well and was easy to set up, but the Apple HomeKit features are limited to ONLY VIEWING the camera feed. So, while there are many features within the Tapo app (such as letting me know when the puppy is barking), I'm unable to use the feature in Apple HomeKit that switches off the camera when we are home or use any automation within that ecosystem. The integration with Apple HomeKit is why I chose this camera over others, and for this integration to be stripped down is a real disappointment. I spent hours on the phone with Apple support to find out why these features weren't working and ultimately referred to TP-Link's support, who said they were not supported at all. As another reviewer mentioned, USB-C would have been a much-preferred power option to the block and pin that it came with.

Small but good little security cameras. Love the magnetic base. The range of area the camera covers is good. Only drawback is the max capacity memory card that works wkth the camera is expensive. With multiple cameras it can get costly. Purchased the one year online subscription in order to guve myself time to get the memory cards I need over time.

I have been very happy with these cameras! You have to set them up with the TP Link App, but i use them setup with Synology Surveillance Station. they work really well and have the privacy shutter which is very nice. great video quality both at night and during the day. very flexible stand so you can point them wherever you need them

Wow, they keep making these cameras better & better! I am impressed with the field of view and the high definition quality. Only one negative issue: I mount a few of these cameras looking outside a window. Previous models had a day/night vision option but these do not. I was not able to use these cameras for those home security positions because the IR reflects at night and the camera becomes totally useful. If using inside a house, no problem. Just cant be looking out a window at night. I would like to see the Day/Night vision option restored to these cameras because they are most excellent quality out of all I have purchased over the years. Other than that I still rate them highly, just not 5-star highly because of that fixed night vision issue.

I bought these because I wanted interior home cameras with the ability to turn them off. The privacy function is amazing. They integrate well with Apple HomeKit. Support a 512GB SD card if you want a good amount of storage. HomeKit is limited to 1080p, however the 2.5k camera in the Tapo App is VERY good. Docking 1 star because the Tapo App has a ‘store” inside on the main panel.

This is one of the easiest to set up devices for home surveillance. In the box, there’s a 3M-like sticky pad in addition to screws and a mounting plate. The camera has a magnetic base, so if you decide you want to place it on a desk or shelf layer on, you can leave the mount on the wall and move it. It integrates perfectly and easily with Apple HomeKit, which is the main reason why I bought it.

Overall, I am pleased with the cameras. They were a great price for the 2-pack and have great-quality images. My only issue with them so far is that I have to power them off and back on every few weeks as they keep losing connection to my Apple Home app. They will be connected to the Tapo app with no issues, but one of them at a time usually shows "no connection" in the Apple Home app, which is pretty annoying. For the price and quality of the physical cameras though, I am still quite pleased with them as there is no monthly fee to store footage through the Apple Home app!

These indoor cameras are good quality - clear picture, easy interface, etc. Love that I can view multiple cameras at once.

I'm starting to think IOS is the security source of choice for cameras. This is the second camera that I've had the honor of testing that has been designated for Apple's IOS and their eco system. Wiht that being said, these still can be used with Google Home and Alexa based products. The box houses avery nice compact folding camera that can be used on a desktop, cabinet or even wall ounted , with the support of the accompanied mounting brackets, anchors and screws. To be honest, this camera isn't very heavy at all. So you should really comfortable about mounting this camera with any light nails or screws. This thing will hang on thin sheetrock Easily. This is what I was talking about earlier, though. The TP-Link App is found in the Apple App Store. However, you'll need to go to the Tapo website to find and download the app, for use with Google home or Alexa Opperationg systems. But once that is done, you'll find it very easy to use. The price of this device is affordable, but there are many other options in this price range. So this could go either way. You wouldn't be remissed to go out and get this if you already are in the Apple eco system, but I know for a fact that there are more adroid/ Alexa freindly cameras out there. I will recommend it, but know that there are other options for all 3 platforms.

Really easy to set up and use. High quality images. it takes some time to adjust the sensitivity of the alerts.

Somewhat ugly-looking but good quality, inexpensive and very practical camera. I bought it for my Tapo home "ecosystem" and it connected perfectly with no issues. The features and quality are good and I like that you can shut off the camera light, not all cameras have that. Giving 4 stars only because I was not able to find a one-camera offering, and ended up buying a set of two, although I really needed only one.

Worth the price. These are a great addition to keeping your home secure. They are out of the box easy to use and have great video AND sound quality. They are also SUPER sensitive - who knew the neighbor pulled in and out of their driveway 15 times a day... These are also how I discovered a birdie got themselves stuck in the garage, the little feathered face in the camera was quite the surprise!

Camera is good quality, two way talk, night vision

Its been a couple of months since ive had this camera and overall i love it. I remember reading the description and remeber seeing not an end to end encryption just end encryption so that made me not super confident in the privacy of the camera (considering i know limited amounts of what i shoukd be looking for). Knowing this camera has a privacy mode made me a lot more confident about my purchase and ice been loving it. If you plan on connecting to homekit, you do not need an SD card or to purchase any storage. Once its in the home app it will record about 3 seconds before an after there is activity in your area once you set up the zones. These zones will act as trigger points of areas you want to be aware when people are in. I can review them at any poing and go back since the date of purchase (not sure if that has to do with icloud but i do purchase icloud already). I have it sitting on a bookshelf and it captures the whole room. 2K is not the best quality if youre trying to catch a thief for example (identity of person or exact objects getting stolen) but just to review or if you dont mind lower wuality its great! I had issues when setting up because i didnt realize it needed an update first so it took me a while but love love love.

Great video quality and recording. Free 30 day free trial to storage or use SD card. Price for cloud storage seems reasonable, just not a big fan of cloud storage.

Works perfectly. No issues. Setup was easy. It did disconnect from my Apple Home once, but a quick restart and re-adding it fixed it. No issues to report. Good quality and nice alerts.

The cameras work very well. The picture quality is nice and clear. The app works well. So far so good.

Nice simple camera. I liked it but if I would have did research before hand a better version cost only a little more. After this one wasn’t in use. (Didn’t break just had the power cord cut) I upgraded but still loved it.

HomeKit integration makes this a great product. Adequate camera made better by the Apple ecosystem.
