Firmware Version: 1.1.9

Hi there,

I've recently invested in Tapo L530B bulbs (and have them successfully grouped), but I've run into a significant limitation that prevents a truly synced smart lighting experience.

The Issue:

The Dynamic Themes (such as "Party Mode," "Relax," or the slow color cycling) available on the individual bulb control page are not accessible when trying to control:

A Group of L530B bulbs.

A Smart Action (Shortcut or Automation).

This means it's currently impossible to start a synced, dynamic color cycle across two or more bulbs with a single tap or voice command. We are forced to tap each bulb individually, resulting in the lights running out of sync immediately.

The Request:

Please expose the built-in Theme/Effect options (which control the dynamic color cycling) to both the Group control page and the Set Lighting action within Smart Actions/Automations.

This would allow users to start a "Party" or "Relax" theme on all lights simultaneously.

This would bring the functionality of the L530B in line with user expectations for a multi-color bulb group.

Thank you for your consideration!
