Hi. I have set up schedules for each of my smart plugs. Does the plug have to "on" for schedule to function?

 

For example: Device is scheduled to turn on at 8pm and turn off at 11pm but, at 10pm, I use the app to turn the device off. Will the schedule resume as normal the next day -- that is, will the device turn on at 8p;m the next day? Thanks!

The smart plug itself should be powered on all the time to achieve smart control. The smart plug itself normally remains on unless you unplug it from the outlet or there is a power outage. 

 

When turning on/off with Kasa App or plug's power button, it controls the power output of the smart plug, in other words, the power of the appliance. Schedule or other software features continue to function regardless of the status of the smart plug output.
