Tapo S200B double tap feature does not stick
After enabling the double tap feature of my Tapo S200B Buttons, the feature then says "not enabled" if checking in my Smart Automations later that require double tap (next day for example).

Mostly, yes... but after a lag... by the time my double tap kicks in to silence a panic alarm, set for a 5 sec alarm duration, the alarm has stopped already.
Also, if I try to create a new automation that uses a double tap, I get a message saying the double tap us not enabled, when it actually is... I have to disable double tap and re-enable it in order for the creation of the automation to work.
So I could say the double tap feature is "buggy"

@Wayne-TP no, that definitely wasn't the case for me - the app seemed to be displaying the changes almost immediately, but only when the changes actually were being applied by the smart action. Whilst I was having other app problems (the "invalid triggers" issue noted by BPCS), I would have to say that the app was doing a good job of indicating the true state of the system that day, it was the system failing to change state in the first place in response to the double taps that was the real problem.

Update
The main problem discussed in this post "Automation that included S200B Double-tap trigger shows invalid action error" is an information display issue in the App but it does not affect automation operation. As for other cases where automation may be delayed or not working, those are separate issues unrelated to this topic.
