Schedule vs Smart Action

2022-04-06 10:11:15

Model: Tapo P100

Hardware Version: V2

Firmware Version: 1.0.5 210615 135441

I'm new to this and it's a very simple question - but I can't find an answer, sorry!...

Is there a difference if I set up a Schedule or a Smart Action?

Cheers

Hello @dpro

Schedule is to turn on/ off device at a scheduled time or at sunset/ sunset.

Tapo Smart action could be a Shortcut/ Automation:

Shortcut lets you perform an action with a simple tap.e.g. turn on all tapo bulbs together
Automation if a Trigger happens then execute an Action.e.g if tapo plug is turned on, then turn on tapo bulb.

Here are some instructions help us learn more about this feature, you could delve further for more scenarios!
