Does the Tapo C200 work with HomeKit, Alexa, and Google Home?

The Tapo C200 pans and tilts, and it records 1080p video from a plug-in adapter.

RTSP and ONVIF allow local viewing, and Alexa and Google Assistant work with it. It suits Google Home and Alexa users, with native support through the maker's cloud. Home Assistant users get native support through local Wi-Fi control.
