With the Tapo App 3.0 with Kasa integration, can I now use a TP-Link Tapo Smart Button such as this one (Amazon) to remotely control a Kasa Device or Smart Action? This would solve the lack of Kasa hardware remote control buttons/switches and opens up many more possibilities (for example I can use a Tapo button as a switch in a 4-way configuration). Has anyone done this yet?

Tapo smart button can be linked with Kasa smart switch through the Smart Action function. How to create Smart Action (automation or a shortcut) of my Tapo devices

 

However, it should be noted that Tapo S200B is a physical button, which can only be triggered by physical control (single click, double click, clockwise/counterclockwise rotation), and cannot be directly controlled through the App.

Thanks! I have since bought two Tapo Smart buttons and they are controlling my Kasa devices. This is a great find.

Hi, this is exactly what I was looking for. Did you need the Tapo hub to make the button work with the Kasa switch? Thanks!

A Tapo hub is required to use the smart button. 

 

To make Kasa device work with Tapo device, Kasa account should be linked with Tapo first. How to Add Kasa Devices to the Tapo App

Is the Tapo Button being discontinued? It does not seem to be available anywhere except when you buy the button+hub. Very disappointing if so.

Tapo S200B/S200D smart button requires a Tapo hub, it cannot connect to router directly. If you already own a Tapo hub and looking for a single smart button, please check the websites of TP-Link authorized retailers. Where To Buy

 

Each vendor has a separate sales strategy and inventory for each model of product. We can't provide precise information. You can check and confirm for yourself.

The Tapo Smart button is not available anywhere even in the TP-Link store.
