Hi! No, those are all optional integrations and are not required for setup or use of this Tapo Smart Plug. Your smartphone, the Tapo app, and 2.4GHz Wi-Fi network with Internet connectivity in your home is all you need to set up and enjoy these smart plugs.

I found that it works well with the Tapo app. I also found it does not play nicely with Google Home.

You can just use your smart phone to connect directly to via home WiFi.

Answer

An account with their service appears to be mandatory - not just the app
