Hey, can you provide a ss from the tapo app? I want to see if it has logs

raajiivv commented 10 months ago

Attaching a ss of the device info. Let me know if you wanted something else.

RaresAil commented 10 months ago

I need a SS from the part where it shows the logs if is on/off

Could you also please add support for TP Link Tapo Matter switches S505 and S505D. I have the S505 connected to a fan and HomeKit will not let me change the type from light to fan. Believe I can change the type if I add it through Homebridge. Thank you!

Everything that is matter should have support with homekit by default, if not you need a matter hub

Correct, I am able to add the S505 through HomeKit directly, but can't change the controlled device to Fan from Light. This is a TP Link problem, and the work around would be to connect it via Homebridge and then change the type via Homebridge. Hope this explains. Thanks!

Could you please add Tapo S505? I personally have 9 of them and 2 are fans that show light bulbs. I have emailed Tapo twice but no update so far to resolve the matter. My first email was in early November 2023. They still haven't let us change the icon from a light to a fan. We appreciate your work on this :)
