I am unable to control a Tapo created group of three light strips with Alexa. I want to display my group of 3 light strips on the Alexa echo hub to change colour/brightness of all strips with one click. Alexa will not discover Tapo created groups. It would be great if it could?

Thanks

 Carl

PS creating the group in Alexa does not allow to change colour of all strips at once.

Tapo group cannot sync to Alexa. Even if it did, it would probably just use the Alexa group logic (since that's an Alexa feature), and we can't do anything if the Alexa group design does not support changing light bulb colors. My suggestion would be to submit a feature request to Alexa.
