One small mistake on my side: I am using the community app.
But it works and I got 3 P 115’s connected. Cannot read power though (but in topic someone has a workaround for that).
A working official app would be nice ![]()

Thanks Hielke, I removed the official and changed to the community app and that works like a charm.
That’s actually the problem with the community app that you cannot read the power…
It seems the official TAPO app works now after the Homey upgrade from last day.
You have to add it over de tapo app first en then homey?
That is the way I did it. You will need the Tapo-app to connect it to WiFi. But the Homey-app works local. The app has its own topic: [APP][Pro] Tapo. More info you can find here.
Thanks
I also bought the Tapo P110.
Most of the times I get the error “too many requests”.
When I do get through, I also get the Bad Request error!
But instead of Bad Request it says “er zijn geen nieuwe apparaten gevonden”
I have Homey Cloud, and tried to add the smart plug using the “add device” and then selection the Tapo app.
When I go through “Apps” and open Tapo, then I have a message “Deze app heeft nog geen apparaten”.
In my Tapo app offcourse the plug is available.
I don’t think the Tapo app developer reads any of this,
Better use the preferred ways of support by the developer:
Due to the large number of users the API was overloaded, I have implemented an update that changes the update interval drastically so that this will hopefully be resolved.
Can happen in the future again because there is nothing I can do as the API limit applies to all users. We have been in contact with Tapo to get this resolved but this still on going.
I’m experiencing same issues people experienced last year. I’m a little perplexed how this is still a thing after all this time. I’m getting invalid_grant, invalid_response, rate_limit, timeouts. I cannot add a single device. I have emailed support and no response after few days.
Is there a known work around to get tapo devices working?
Hi Everyone, i was having the same issues today when trying to set this up and managed to solve my problem.
I was using the desktop app/web browser, and it seemed to be my adblocker causing the issues.
Firstly disabled on homey, then went through tapo setup and it opened a new window to log into tapo which gave me a different issue. But again disable ad blocker on that and refreshed and it worked as expected! I had to wait a few minutes to try again as homey thought there was a registration in process
Hope this helps
My two P115 have been working okay for last half year but for the last few weeks they have had this issue.
First only one of them had the ”Too many requests” issue so I disconnected it and figured that maybe it would solve itself.
It did not, instead I now have tve same issue with both.
The tapo IOS app works perfect but the homey app gets blocked because of the too many requests.
Are you and Tapo by any chance still working to solve this?
Hi,
I’m using a TP-Link Tapo P115 smart plug, which is listed as compatible with your Homey app.
I’ve added the P115 device in the Tapo app (Tapo Home), and it’s working fine there.
When I try to log in to the Tapo Homey app, I often get the error:
Invalid Response (429 Too Many Requests)
But I haven’t tried logging in repeatedly — the last attempt was yesterday evening.
Once it did let me in, but the device list was empty, even though the P115 is online and visible in the Tapo app.
I’ve confirmed that the device is connected to the Tapo cloud and is working remotely.
Can you confirm if the P115 is still fully supported and accessible through the latest API integration in the Homey app?
when I login I see this
Update:
I was finally able to log in today, but the list of devices was empty.
The Tapo P115 device is online and working perfectly in the official Tapo app.
In the Homey pairing window, I only see a Rate Limited message under the empty list.
Please see the attached screenshot.
any idie?
Can we know why you’re not responding to the questions? It’s not even a problem if the application doesn’t work, but the fact that you’re not even bothering to reply to people seems a bit strange to me.
I had the same issues. I bought some Tapo devices. The Tapo Android app works. But the Homey app is using the API. And the API seems to be overloaded. After many retries I got one succes. But then when trying to switch the powersocket had the same issues. Lag and often not responding.
The Tapo Android app is connecting locally to the devices. It works much much faster. That’s why it has no issues. The Homey app is using the API for everything.
I don’t want every swith on or off to be routed via the internet. It’s ridiculous.
So I packed the whole bunch and returned it.
You just used the wrong app, this one uses local connection:
But I need official cloud app because this device is different location….
And other cloud connection device like Daikin AC is work perfect home and weekend house.
Hi everyone,
I want to express my disappointment regarding the Tapo L530E bulb and its integration with Homey. This device is officially listed as supported, yet it continues to not work reliably. Despite repeated attempts, I cannot control it through Homey, making it essentially unusable in my smart home setup.
I am very frustrated that officially supported devices still face such issues, as it undermines the trust and expectations users have in the platform. I hope the team can address this soon, because right now it’s very disappointing for those of us trying to build a consistent and reliable smart home experience.
Thank you for looking into this.
