How to Reset a Tapo Smart Bulb

There are two types of reset available: a soft reset that does not erase the current settings, and a factory reset that erases all of your custom settings and restores them to factory defaults.

Soft reset (without losing the configuration settings)

1. Turn the light switch controlling the smart bulb to the ON position first.

2. Switch it OFF and ON 3 times, pausing for one second in between.

3. The smart bulb should blink 3 times.

Factory reset (back to factory default settings)

1. Turn the light switch controlling the smart bulb to the ON position first.

2. Switch it OFF and ON 5 times, pausing for one second in between.

3. The smart bulb should blink 3 times.
