Just installed a HS103 smart plug. However I thought these worked like a switch in that you could control the connected device through the plug or the device. For example if you forget and turn on or off the device manually it will still work through the app. But It seems to work more like a smart bulb than a switch. Am I missing something?

The smart plug works similarly to physically unplugging the connected device. The outlet that the plug is connected to will need to remain on like you mentioned similar to a smart bulb where the switch needs to stay on. As far as the connected device if it needs to be turned "on" like a TV, then that still needs to be done.
