Web UI Configuration
The initial plan of the Deco Whole Mesh system is to configure via Deco APP as we hope to provide a super-easy installation and non-high tech required experience.
Due to this commitment, Deco APP allows us to quickly and easily install Mesh Wi-Fi System by just following the step-by-step set-up wizard. Some users commented, ”This thing literally holds your hand through the full setup. 99% of people will hit next, next, next, and you are on the internet” which is just what we want.
Next, Deco App allows monitoring the home Wi-Fi from anywhere without bringing a laptop and making changes right from your smartphone or tablet. So as long as taking your smartphone with you, the home network activity is under your control.
Then, with a few taps on the APP, the advanced features, like Parental Control, Port Forwarding, and QoS are ready to go.
Moreover, when it comes to firmware upgrades, the Deco APP will automatically push a message when new firmware is ready. All you need to do is click “Update Deco”.
While, with the time going on, we gradually received some feedback that users hope Deco could be configured via web UI or more advanced features could be configured on the web interface. Unfortunately, there has been no plan to add these features yet.
But we are open to any feedback and would be appreciated it if you could let us know why you prefer web configuration to APP setup. So we would collect more brilliant ideas which might be taken into consideration along with the future APP upgrade.
Thank you very much for your attention and please feel free to comment below.

My reason for wanting a PC, web based interface is simple. No phone manufacturer currently makes a device with a 40" screen. I am visually impaired and simply can't see my phone screen well enough. Also, it seems TP-Link won't create a "dark mode" for the app which would help a little. Why the light gray lettering on white? I have to use a magnifying glass on my phone screen just to use the app. A little ADA help please.

@TP-Link proper web interface functionality is desperately needed. In the event of network configuration issues that prevent the deco from connecting, it makes the processing of fixing it absolutely maddening because you need to get the Deco connected to the internet to change the config via the app (which is a catch-22 if that change is for the root cause of the connectivity problem). Please fix this and give us non-internet-connected access to configurations via web browser!

@TP-Link Please add the web interface to TP-Link Deco series, or you will lose the actual and future clients.

As if this will make a difference (I think the writing is on the wall and tp-link doesn't care), I also want a web ui for the deco series.
I *literally* was going to go buy a AX4300 Pro this afternoon, but then thought to myself "hmmm... wonder what the web setup/interface looks like".
Ended up here, saw the replies and guess what? No need to go out to BB in the wind and wet because IT DOESN'T HAVE ONE!!!
Lost my business on this one, tp-link. :-(

All,
if you want this implemented you need to VOTE. So far only 28 votes. If I was TP-Link I wouldn't give a cookie about your claims to get the job done. We are a lot expecting a web ui, please vote and make the change happen

@TP-Link , I am honestly shocked that there isn't a web interface for advanced settings. I thought I was losing it because I couldn't figure out how to access that part of the interface, but nope - it really isn't there. For most routers, the necessary settings are in the app and the advanced settings are web ui. Having the advanced settings in the app would be a nice bonus if the web ui was also available.
I have a long list of IP reservations that I need to add for some devices that aren't on the network currently. Adding a list of MACs and IPs using my phone is painful.
By the time anything changes (if it does), it will be too late for me - but please do this for future buyers.
