TP-Link Tapo

Easy to use and to set up devices and it has some basic automation features. However the app comes with issues. I've had it not sent camera alerts through, despite them coming over my smart speakers. Worst is the notifications. They've bundled all of them together, so the same sound is used for motion alert, firmware ready to install, battery drain. Wich is bad as you want a distinctive sound for motion alert. I don't get the impression they will fix this

Something about your Home Map changes nearly every time the app updates which is beyond frustrating. So be prepared to regularly redraw No-Go Zones and Virtual Walls, reposition the Virtual Furniture, and resize the Rooms too (which is not easy). And even if the Map is still the same, the distance the vacuum will go over room lines can noticeably change with app updates. Zero consistency. So even though you don't have to physically vacuum anymore, you will still have digital chores to do.

This app has been built without planning. Once the devices are registered and connected to the internet, the device information should be displayed even when the device is offline. For an example, the Smart Plug information (like power usage etc) only displayed when its ON. This is a bad design. Also, the data don't sync for that period, if the device is offline for sometime and come back online. Fix these issues please
