      Hi,

      We always recommend that you ensure your router's 2.4GHz Wi-Fi signal is adequately strong in the smart device's location. The Tapo app has a feature that allows you to measure the Wi-Fi signal strength of your smart devices. When the app is connected, please check the signal strength in the Device Settings menu.

      If the signal is within the ideal range, and you're still experiencing these symptoms, please ensure your Tapo app is up to date, then update your smart device's firmware by selecting Me → Firmware Update within the Tapo app.

      If you need help with any of these steps, please contact our support team using any of the resources included with the product or from our official website. We'll gladly have a Support Agent follow up with you directly.

      Thank you,
      TP-Link Support tplink

    Works great- just know the tricks to pairing it

    Was pretty easy to set up and pair so long as you use the sticker that comes with it and not the smaller QR code on the plug itself. (Otherwise the QR code is too small for app to recognize or it’s too close to be in focus) Also it was pretty simple to hook up to my smart phone- just note that you should pair it to the smart home app (google home, apple home, etc) instead of the tp link app or wires get crossed and you’d need to reset it and pair it again to the smart home app. Makes it much easier to use all in one place. Once hooked up it works like a charm. Very responsive, and pairs right back up even when unplugged for a while.

    These Tapo smart plugs were easy to set up and work seamlessly with Matter. They’ve been reliable for automating lights and small appliances, and the compact size means they don’t block the second outlet. A straightforward, no-hassle smart home upgrade.

    Easy set up. Easy to use. I got these on sale during black friday. Very good prive. Overall awesome. The alexa environment is pretty cool so far. Lots of neat things you can do. Like, alternate wax warmers through the day using routines. A blink camera detecting motion can activate a tv, stereo, light or any other device. Think Home Alone... is there a commercial yet? Should be.

    Top-Notch Smart Plugs for HomeKit Users!

    These smart plugs are absolutely the best I’ve ever used! I’ve tried almost every HomeKit-compatible plug on the market, from WeMo to Philips Hue, and these stand out in every way. The installation was effortless—I was up and running in under a minute. Simply plug it into the wall, scan the code on the side or the included packaging, and you’re good to go. They even provide stickers for each plug so you can save the codes in a booklet for easy reference later. The attention to detail in the engineering, design, and even the packaging is exceptional. Everything about these plugs feels thoughtfully designed, making the whole experience seamless and user-friendly. I’ve been a long-time HomeKit enthusiast and, back in 2019, had one of the largest setups Apple had seen. Even then, with older technology, these plugs would have exceeded expectations. These smart plugs do exactly what they advertise. They’re well-built, reliable, and incredibly easy to install. They’ve surpassed all my expectations. The value is also fantastic—at regular pricing, $49.99 for three plugs is a great deal, but the Black Friday price of $19.99 was unbeatable. I highly recommend these smart plugs to any HomeKit user looking for a reliable and effortless way to enhance their smart home system. This is a must-buy product that delivers everything you need and more!

    I recently purchased the TP-Link Tapo Smart Wi-Fi Plug Mini (3-pack), and they have been a game-changer for my smart home setup. Setting them up was incredibly easy, thanks to Matter support, which made integration with my smart home ecosystem seamless. The compact design is great—it doesn’t block adjacent outlets, and the plugs feel sturdy. I use them to control lamps, coffee makers, and other small appliances, and they respond instantly to commands via the Tapo app, Alexa, and Google Assistant. The scheduling and timer features are also super handy for automating daily routines. Overall, these smart plugs are reliable, easy to set up, and work flawlessly. Definitely a great investment for anyone looking to enhance their smart home!

    For the price it’s perfect. You get 3 smart plugs in the box. Download the Tapo App. The set up is straight foward. You can name each plug, that way you can place them, and know which one is which via wifi. They are small so the won’t block your other outlet on the same plate. Once you start using these smart plugs, your gonna wonder why you didn’t buy these earlier. You can set up schedules which is very helpful. And it even lets you knoe how much energy the item you have plugged is using. Overall, I really liked the purchase, and they are on sale for $25, down from the $50.

    This smart plug set is a great choice for anyone starting or expanding their smart home. Setup was quick and easily connected to my existing system. The plugs are compact and don’t block neighboring outlets, which is a huge plus. Once connected, they work reliably with schedules and voice control. Great value for a 3-pack and perfect for lamps, fans, or holiday lights. Pros: Easy setup, compact size, reliable performance Cons: The App could be slightly more intuitive Overall, an excellent smart home upgrade at a reasonable price.

    I've have numerous Kasa outlets from TP-Link that I use with HomeKit and this is my first Tapo ones. Set up was quick and easy. I really like their small size so no problem fitting 2 next to each other and in tight spaces. Also, the 3 pack was a great value. While I use HomeKit to control them, my kids have Amazon devices, so it is nice that they can be controlled by both. Definitely a great purchase.

    I picked up the 3-pack on sale, and it ended up being a better value than the 2-pack (which I also purchased and then returned). Setup was quick, they work reliably with Matter, and the compact size keeps the second outlet free. A solid smart plug set for the price.

    I couldn’t be happier with the TP-Link Tapo Smart Wi-Fi Plug Mini with Matter (3-pack)! These plugs are compact, easy to set up, and incredibly reliable. The Matter compatibility is a game-changer, making integration seamless with all my smart home devices, whether I’m using Alexa, Google Assistant, or Apple HomeKit. The setup process was straightforward, and the Tapo app is intuitive and user-friendly. I love that I can schedule my devices, monitor power usage, and even use voice commands to control them. The small size ensures they don’t block adjacent outlets, which is a huge plus.

    Great value. Setup was easy. I use with my Google Assistant. Love the fact that if it plugs in, it can become a Smart device. Only downside for me is you have to use the manufacturer's app to setup and im not a fan of adding more apps.

    Just started creating my smart home and these smart plugs are a great entry. The instructions for how to get the app set up was very well done. I would recommend anyone who wants to start creating a smart home to consider these plugs. I love that there are 3 plugs in the package so you can hit the three major rooms of your house instantly

    I like my outdoor outlet so much I orders these for indoor. My wife is legally blind and controlling things can be difficult. Once the APP is installed, it recognized the units when energized. It attached with Bluetooth and then allowed attachment to out WIFI. It also asked if we wanted to allow control with Alexa (or other device). Flawless linking. Each device can be given its own name.
