Accepted Answer

Our Global Certifications

Tapo is committed to data security and compliance, holding ISO 27001 and ISO 27701 certifications. These certifications demonstrate our adherence to international standards for information security management and personal information management.

Data Encryption

Tapo employs AES 128-bit encryption and TLS 1.2 protocols to protect sensitive information, such as camera videos and user identity data. AES 128-bit encryption offers robust protection using a 128-bit key, making unauthorized access nearly impossible.

To enhance user account security, Tapo implements a Two-Step Verification mechanism. This requires an additional verification step beyond just a username and password, safeguarding user credentials and preventing unauthorized access.

How to turn on Precise Location for the Tapo App

Enable Precise Location and you can apply your exact location to the Geofencing feature.

1. Go to “Settings > Privacy & Security > Location Services”.

2. Scroll through the list to select Tapo. Then enable the Precise Location function.

If Location Services is grayed out and cannot be turned on, please check if you have disallowed changes of location services.

1. Go to “Settings > Screen Time > Content & Privacy Restrictions > Location Services”. Please select Allow Changes. Then tap back to save your settings.

2. Tap Location Services again. Select Tapo, and allow Always location permission, then turn Precise Location on to get accurate location.

For Android (Android 14 or later):

Enable Get location info and you can apply your exact location to the Geofencing feature.

1. Go to “Settings > Apps > Permissions”.

2. Tap Apps to scroll through the list or just search the app name to select Tapo.

Question 5

How to Add A Group for Your Tapo Devices

Accepted Answer

Feature Description

A group is a collection of devices that you can tap a single action to control all devices belonging to that group. It is accessible on the home screen just like any other device.

You can group together smart plugs, smart switches, and smart bulbs. If you grouped together a bunch of smart bulbs, you will see the color picker and all of the other bulb-related features you would expect if controlling a single smart bulb. This will help reduce the number of unique screens needed to support the feature.

If you have a group of six smart bulbs and drag your finger around the color picker, all of the 'color' bulbs change color simultaneously and smoothly. Other bulbs that are non-color bulbs will remain unchanged.

Groups will exist in a new "GROUPS" category in the device list and they will appear like a basic device with a name, icon, and on/off switch.

What kinds of Devices can I add to a group?

All smart bulbs, smart light strips, smart plugs, and smart switches

How Can I Add a Group?

1. From the Home screen, tap on the “+” icon in the top right corner. Then select "Add Group".

2. Name your group and set a location for it. Select the smart devices you want to add to the group and tap SAVE.

How Can I Delete a Group?

Two ways you can delete a group.

Method 1:

From the device list, long-press an individual group until the red delete symbol appears on the right. Tap the red delete symbol.

Method 2:

1. Tap the gear icon on the Status Page to enter the “Group Settings” page.
