@dafish,

Most issues with our cloud are fixed within a few minutes and are rarely spread over long periods. I think that the behavior that you are experiencing is a result of the new Kasa 3.0 app. The team pushed out a few fixes already, and now updates should be released periodically with improvements and new features.

For now, our users that experienced issues found that if they went into their phone settings and disabled the local control permission, the app would then behave as expected with instant access to devices and reduced waits. Just keep in mind that this setting must be turned back on for a new device to be added to the Kasa App.

TP-Link does have a cloud services status page, however, I am not sure how up-to-date the past incidents section is.
