Title: Finally a solution for 3-way switch
Review: I had been waiting a long time for a simple no hub solution for 3-way switches and this was it. I have a lot of other Tapo switches and they work great and this was no different. As long as you can identify which of the switches in your 3-way arrangement is the line side and which is the load this goes in as easy as the single pole. Integrates well with both Alexa and Siri.Only real knocks on this is that the relay is a bit loud when switching and it’s a big block to go into the junction box. Took a bit of maneuvering and time to be able to get the wires cleared to get it fit into the box. However that’s not enough to take a star as is part of the trade off to having a smart switch and they are all like that and just took some extra time for wire management. I was also installing into a 4 switch box with one other smart switch already so was even tighter.Once the install is done it’s fantastic and does exactly what you need. The Tapo app isn’t amazing but it works and thanks to the Matter support it’s easy to hook into the smart assistants and manage it there.

Title: Easy installation and works perfectly
Review: I installed 3 Tapo smart switches. Me: DIY person. Easy to install and super easy to connect and set up on Tapo App.[Appreciated]. I replaced two modern lighting electronic timer switches that have tiny screens and are not easy to program. The Tapo smart switch has an easy menu to program off and on times making it a breeze to control porch and patio lighting. Installation tips: 1. if the switch you are replacing is a 3 way or 4 way unit, the Tapo works perfectly but needs to be installed in the primary switch junction box. You can easily determine this by testing for current in the “line” wire when the switch is turned off. It will retain current when the switch is on or off. If the current stops when the switch is off, then that is not the primary switch in your 3 or 4 way set up. The included instructions explain this as well. Tip 2: verify your existing wire function before removing and installing new Tapo switch. While there are code and industry standards, the previous installer may have deviated. This includes verifying the traveller wires, often one red and one black, but this can vary. Also, the line and load [load goes to light in this case] wires may both be black. A noncontact voltage tester or multimeter can be used to discriminate. Tip 3: take pictures of old switch wiring before removal. This can help if you forget the wire origin. I removed and installed one wire at a time to minimize mix ups. Tip 4: The old wires may have been stripped too long which can expose the conducting copper after installed in the Tapo. This is easily fixed by snipping off any excess copper wire. Tip 5: The Tapo switch includes a single switch plate. If you are installing into a multi- switch junction box, the reused 2 or 3 or 4 switch plate cover will probably not fit totally flush over the top section of the Tapo switch at the screw hole because the switch body plate is a little thicker than a regular switch. I remedied this by shaving off small amount of plastic on the back side of the switch plate cover. ( see picture). This allowed a flat and flush mount onto the wall. I used a box cutter to remove a tiny amount of the plastic. Tip 6: Use of a power screwdriver (not a drill) saves time when removing and installing the two long switch mounting screws. Good luck on your project. Tapo smart switches highly recommended.

Title: Works as expected
Review: Installation was easy, and everything is working well so far. The only downside is the loud clicking sound. It integrates with Apple HomeKit, but it’s not as reliable as the Tapo app. Sometimes, it becomes unresponsive in the Home app, though it works fine in the Tapo app.Overall, it’s a solid device with just a few quirks! Hopefully, a future update improves stability in HomeKit.

Title: As advertised
Review: This switch does exactly what it’s supposed to. It is reliable and works perfectly with my apple home smart home setup. Dimming and turning off/on through Siri or the home app is easy too. The directions are clear and you can replace the switch in 15 minutes and added to your smart home within 30

Title: Decent Smart Switch But Mixed Results if You Pick the Combined Version
Review: The Tapo Smart Switch works okay — when used in a simple single-pole or basic 3-way setup, it performs decently. It pairs with Matter readily, responds to commands, and integrates with smart-home systems without too much fuss.However — using the “all-in-one” version (single-pole / 3-way / 4-way combined) is where I ran into trouble. It seems like mixing those wiring modes in one unit introduces complexity that makes installation finicky and causes unreliable behavior. In my case the switch sometimes mis-behaved or didn’t stay properly synced, which defeats the purpose of a “smart” setup when you expect consistency.If you need a switch for a straightforward setup and don’t over-complicate the wiring, this works as a basic smart switch. But for more complex wiring or 3-/4-way circuits, this combined model feels like “trying to do too much,” and you may encounter headaches.

Title: Easy Setup
Review: This is a great product. I can now turn on and off my light from anywhere. It was very easy to set up and link it to the app. I have now changed out all of my switches. It also work very well with Alexa. Good quality product for the price. Make sure you turn off the power at the panelboard when hooking up the switch.

Title: Easy to install (prevents incorrect wiring), tapo app has easy functionality
Review: A different brand 3-way smart switch went dead after 3 years of use. I replaced it with this Tapo smart switch. 3 way switch wiring can be difficult (especially if you see the wiring the electrical contractor did in our house!). This switch will actually identify to you if it’s been wired wrong! (which I did) After reversing one set of wires, worked like a charm. Do it your selfers, this is the switch to use.

Review: Cannot be used as the 4-way switch in a circuit. I had to replace the center switch in a 4-way system (3way – 4way – 3way setup) and this can only replace one if the 3 way switches at the ends. Really disappointing. The information before buying suggested it would have been able to. Hopefully I save someone else the trouble.
