Amazon smart plug5/27/2023 Once you have your TP-Link Smart Wi-Fi Plug Mini setup in the Kasa app it is now time to activate the Kasa Skill for Alexa The Kasa app also provides some details about runtime of your smart plug with daily, monthly averages plus total runtime.and to activate them all at once through this scene option. Scenes are used with multiple connected devices to use default settings for lights, etc. The Kasa app also allows the optional creation of scenes to control your devices however, this also requires that TP-Link Cloud account.The plug is now live on your local network and can be turned on and off using the app or, if you created a TP-Link Cloud account it can be turned off over the Internet or connected to services like Alexa.You will be asked what type of device you are adding insure it is detecting your home wireless network name the device choose a custom icon enter your Wi-Fi password/credentials.Once you are in the app you need to add the plug to your device list.My recommendation is to go ahead and create that account now. If you want to have remote control through the app or Alexa then you need this account. You can skip creating a TP-Link Cloud Account however, that will mean you can only control the mini plug when you are connected to the same network. ![]() Download the Kasa for Mobile App ( Android or iOS) and start the app up. ![]() So here are the steps to getting it setup with the Kasa app: Once you have the plug unboxed and plugged into an electrical outlet, by the way I have it plugged into a power strip and it works fine, you have to install the Kasa for Mobile app on your device to begin the setup process and get your plug connected to your home Wi-Fi network so that it can be accessed through the app or ultimately Alexa. Of course, manual control defeats the purpose of having a smart device so you can also remotely control it using the TP-Links Kasa for Mobile app ( Android or iOS) or if you are also using Amazon's Alexa service you can use the Kasa Skill to create that connection and have voice control through your Amazon Echo, Tap, or Dot. This device plugs into a wall socket, connects to your home wireless network and can be controlled manually by pressing the On/Off button on its side. Yesterday I shared an unboxing gallery for the TP-Link Smart Wi-Fi Plug Mini that is compatible with Amazon's Alexa service.
