Feature Request
"Turn off X minutes after the light is turned on"
I have a few hallways where people pass through, and the lights are ALWAYS left on. This, combined with my OCD, is slowly eating away at my soul. I'd like to configure Kasa to "Turn the device off 5 minutes after it is turned on".
I've already set up a schedule in Kasa to turn the lights off on the "5s", but because of the timing I've already had the lights go out on people halfway through the hall.

@dkern this feature would be great. We have the 3-way switches that run an exhaust fan in the bathroom, would love to allow the timer feature run automatically each time it is activated.

@Carl Do you know if tp-link is planning on adding this functionality? This would help a lot, especially to help save energy around the house to turn off lights that don't need to be on more than a few minutes

It already has been. All you have to use the smart action feature 'Auto off timmer'. You can currently have 3 Smart Actions active at one time.

To be honest I asked the same question. I know there are a lot of factors involved in why it was limted to 3 and as a consumer myself voiced my complaints about it as well. I know they are working on expanding it but at this time I have no information on the details or time table regarding its eventual expansion.
