Hello,
temperature automation is completely useless in this case. 
If I want to control the heating, the temperature in the room is e.g. 18°C, switching on the P100 is below 19°C and switching it off is above 20°C, the automation will not start. 

The shortcuts I use to set the automation are also useless. I had the idea of setting a heating shortcut for a standard week, a shortcut for still 21°C and a shortcut for still 19°C. When switching these shortcuts nothing happens, no automation takes place. 

Also setting up automations is very complicated and unusable. You like to flaunt the name smart, but there are no smart functions. A regular wireless thermostat is much simpler and most importantly works.
Another thing that is sorely lacking is the ability to set the automation ALL triggers will activate the automation. It doesn't even solve the effective time. Example: I want the P100 to trigger if the door is closed and the motion sensor is active. This simply cannot be done. Any trigger in the group will turn on this automation. 

One last thing I have on this topic. How is it possible that the automation setting for temperature can only be adjusted by 1°C? Are we really in the 21st century? I would expect such a possibility in a mechanical thermostat and not in a digital sensor that sends the temperature to 1 decimal place.

Tapo has pretty well done cameras, lights, LED strips. It's a little worse with the switches, which sometimes don't respond, don't turn on the lights, or there is a delay. As far as motion sensors, open doors, unfortunately I don't see the use until automation ALL triggers will activate.

I 100% agree with the above post! I have invested in 2 Tapo smart sensors T310 and 10 smart plugs T115, 1 smart hub H100 and a C220 camera. Despite the fact that the camera and plugs themselves are of good quality, the so-called smart automation with the sensors is absolutely unusable! I have an office space with electric heating. If this room is used in the winter, I want this heating to be able to be turned on and off remotely (e.g. an hour in advance), and to only heat between a minimum and maximum temperature that I set myself. I've tried everything but this simply doesn't work!! Would love your feedback!

Sorry for "necroing" this thread, but has any progress been made into actually making automation usable for temperature control?

I'm trying to set up a wi-fi power socket to turn on a heater when below certain temperatures, but also within certain times of day and it flat out doesn't work if the temperature is below the set range when that time of day comes.

Does anyone know of an alternate app that can be used to ... you know, perform a check every minute and turn on a heater if the temp is low or something? Simple stuff like that?

  @Wayne-TP We are having a similar problem. In our case the p115 is turning an extractor on to lower the temperature, but not turning off again, reducing the temperature too far.

  @Wayne-TP 

Just adding my voice here to say that temperature automations simply do not work for me despite trying all the troubleshooting suggestions.

  @Wayne-TP how about doing some tests yourselves simulating imperfect conditions, wifi dropouts etc. I have a T315 and a couple of smart plugs, latest app/firmware, I have an automation which turns on the plugs at 7am and another to turn off at 10pm. Within in this time window I also have an automation that turns off the plugs at 22 degrees and another that turns on the plugs below 20 degrees. This is the absolute basic use case for these sensors - replacing a traditional thermostat. Surely the number of complaints and people with the same issue are enough to warrant some investment in your apparently defective products?

  @Wayne-TP 

So what is the purpose of the hub?

Why isn't this requirement in BOLD LETTERS ON THE BOX?

Why is there no reconnection logic to mitigate against temporary dropouts?

Why is there no "reset" button in the app?

Why are there no logs or shareable configuration available?

Why are you skimping on QA and passing the buck to your consumers?
