Multi-camera live view
See multiple cloud camera streams in the same responsive dashboard, with per-camera loading, error, and retry states.
Linux · Windows · Tapo Cloud
See your camera directly from your desktop.
Topo is a standalone desktop app for viewing and controlling multiple Tapo cameras from one clean window. It uses the Tapo cloud relay, so there is no RTSP setup, port forwarding, VPN, or direct access to your home network.
Experimental software. Topo is an independent third-party project and uses undocumented Tapo cloud endpoints. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by TP-Link or Tapo.
What you get
A focused desktop view for your Tapo cameras.
Log in with your Tapo account, complete MFA when requested, and keep your cameras together in a focused desktop window.
Per-camera privacy
Enable or disable privacy mode independently for each camera and reconnect its media relay after a state change.
Cloud relay check
Check the cloud relay status for each camera when you need to verify its connection.
Pan and tilt
Move compatible cameras from a compact control panel with selectable movement steps.
Fullscreen viewing
Open any camera fullscreen with a button or double-click, while keeping controls in a separate drawer.
SD recording playback
Browse the camera's SD-card timeline by local date and play complete recording segments, even when events are close together.
SD recording downloads
Save a selected complete SD-card recording as an MP4 file through the native Linux or Windows save dialog.
MFA login
Complete MFA through a Tapo app notification or an email verification code.
Session reuse
Reuse the saved Tapo session across launches, so MFA is not requested every time.
Logout support
Clear the saved session and require a fresh login when you choose to log out.
Stream states
See loading and error states for each stream and retry a camera connection when needed.
Responsive layout
Use the dashboard at different desktop window sizes without losing access to camera controls.
Live audio can be enabled per camera after an explicit click, with an independent volume control for each live stream.
