I would like to have the ability to set a duration for my switches or light bulbs. It would be nice to set a time range between a start and stop time where if a light switch is turned on, it will turn off on its own after a set time determined by the app.

 

Namely, I have kids who gwt up in the middle of the night to use the rest room and then leave the light switch on. I would like the light to turn off on it's own after X amount of time.

Hi   @Triple7 

Thank you for reaching out to the community and sharing the ideas. 

 

 

Do you wish to set up an auto- off timer for the kasa switch, this is available and called Smart Action 

 

Common questions about Smart Actions in the kasa app

 

When:

Turn ON

 

Then 

Turn OFF

Delay time  30 mins (auto turn off itself after 30 mins )

That absolutely works, thank you!

 

I wasn't familiar enough with the nomenclature they were using and how to use thay function.
