IOS13 Kasa Widget issue
This thread has been locked for further replies. You can start a new thread to share your ideas or ask questions.
Recent update of iPad to to IOS13 allows "Today" view with widgets on left side of screen.
Although I have three HS100 devices that are working OK, the Kasa widget in "today" view shows no devices, it says:
"No Favorite Devices - select your favorite devices from Settings in the Kasa app."
There is no favorite selection in the Kasa app. In Settings > Widget Settings, I can select devices, but there is no mention of favorites, and selected devices do not appear in the IOS widget. Is this a bug, or have I missed something?

Hi, I'm having the same issue after the last update, before it was working well.
Would you have any updates in how to solve it?
Thanks.

Just checked again - PadOS 13.4.1 - there appears to be a change in behaviour from my original issue.
I had KASA devices in the widget area and they work fine, but KASA scenes in the widget area responded with "something went wrong".
Activating scenes from within the KASA app works ok. Also activating scenes from the IFTTT app works ok.
I also checked my iPhone and found the same thing.
This is now fixed - on both phone and pad I deleted the scene that failed to work from widgets, and simply created it again. Now it works.
Didn't notice earlier because I'd stopped using the KASA widget.
I hope you have similar success.

@HellDad The issue fixed itself for me over the last couple of days. Not sure how, as I made no changes and it doesn't look like the Kasa app updated itself.

@Vmbc I solved the issue by going to Settings > Time & Location > and reselecting my location and time zone. Then back out of settings and force quit the app. Restart the app and then check if the widget updates. It should then.

Since I last wrote, the Kasa automations have stopped working. Neither the new Kasa "Smart Actions" nor the link via IFTTT work.
I haven't tried complete uninstallation and re-installation yet. I can still control my Kasa switch from the app.

Had the same issue. Restarted my iphone and they showed up. The widget does not show the status of my switches though. The on button is white and the off button is dark but they don't change, although they function.
Hope it helps.
