Sharing devices between multiple accounts

Hi,
Is it possible for multiple Kasa accounts to access the same device? My husband and I would both like access to the TP-Link smart plugs but they are already linked to his account and it doesn't appear that I can add them to mine without removing them from his.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
C.

Tp-link has already implemented features with less votes than this one... Let's have some hope.

Yet another frustrated user of Kasa and Tapo kit.
the hardware is good, competitively priced, reliable. The software is better than many of the other brands. And yet.
AND YET... this utterly basic and essential feature remains absent.
My particular scenario: a holiday property shared between many families. I have installed Kasa KE100 TRVs, so that heating can be controlled in only some rooms in advance of arrival.
But the only options are either to share my login with several other people, so they can control all the devices in my own home as well, or be wholly responsible for the heating, having to do the remote operations that others ask for.
TP-Link: close but no cigar. For a massive company, this is such a basic and essential omission. Such a shame.

TP-Link, you are giving up market share to Wyse and others by not allowing device "sharing" between accounts. It's been years, and it's not that difficult to set up a basic ACL structure.
Please make this happen. We very much like the ability for the Kasa outlets to monitor energy usage, but the lack of device sharing makes us want to switch everything over to Wyse (or Emporia who also has energy monitoring on their outlets).

Need this. Sharing the same account will not work. That will expose administrative features to the shared user.
Also if I want to visit a friend or family members house and use devices in their account, I have to logout and login repeatedly.
Leviton has this feature!
