Has anyone successfully connected the HS220 dimmer switch? I just get “no new devices found”. I added it to the Kasa app on my android phone and have no problem controlling it there so I know it is installed correctly.
Got the Same issue too,
Here is the latest from Homey on the HS220 Dimmer Switch and is likely relevant to other devices that are also having connection problems.
I have asked our partnerships manager for an update. The Kasa app still contains an API issue that need to be solved after TP-link made some changes. This was already done for the Tapo/TP-link app. This means that some devices will have some difficulties when pairing to Homey. We apologize for the mix-up and inconvenience.
We will try to resolve this issue as soon as possible, together with TP-link. Please keep an eye on the app page of Kasa to see if we updated the app.
I am using the KS200 Switch, which is the smart switch for HomeKit. Now the switch itself has no problem showing up on my Homey devices with the app, BUT it will only show as a light. The switch is connected to a ceiling fan. Homey doesn’t let me manually change it to recognize it as a fan.
I would think this would be very simple, as all Homey needs to know is the device’s state and then let us control the details like name, what it is, etc.
If anybody knows how to make the app or Homey recognize it as a fan, please let me know.
Hello and welcome,
When you longpress the device tile, isn’t an option “Plugged in” present?
These device types can be selected:
I’ve seen that setting pop up before but not for the devices I’ve added with the official Kasa app. I’ve only seen it with the community KASA LAN app, but that’s too slow for me. How would I go about contacting the developer ? This has been maddening because I took the took to buy products on the official list just for it not to work as expected.
Hi Michael, is there any update on this?
Unfortunately no. Homey closed my ticket as soon as I received the above response. I have tried a few time to add the HS220 but it still does not work. I will probably re-open a support call soon.
