I love that there's an sd slot so you don't need to subscribe for monthly cloud storage, the magnetic mounting system is easy to figure out, and is brilliant.

Hi! The Tapo C120 Wi-Fi Camera offers both options. Using a MicroSD Card (not included), you can use the Tapo app to designate your recording preferences—whether activity-based or 24/7.

Can this be used without internet connection

Can this be used without internet connection
Asked by: Bryan
Technically, the TP-Link Tapo C120 4MP Wi-Fi Outdoor Camera with Night Vision & Spotlights (B&H # TPTAPOC120) will only need an internet connection for the initial set-up. Please keep in mind that you would not be able to manage or view the camera without 2.4GHz Wi-Fi connectivity or remotely view or manage it without the internet—the Tapo app for iOS or Android will need an internet connection.
