My porch light sometimes gets left on and annoys my very nice neighbor. It’s on a schedule but sometimes someone turns it on after the scheduled off time and forgets to turn it off. Is there a way to give her access to that switch only? I am using Kasa wifi switches and Alexa in the rest of the house. Thanks.

    Lots of other solutions provided, but to answer your question, yes, you can give them your kasa (or tapo) account log in information which would let them control all of your kasa/tapo stuff (including cameras if you have them).

    You could create a separate kasa account, then reset your porch light kasa switch and join it to the new account. Then just share that account with your neighbour, she’ll be able to control it from her home wifi via remote access. You won’t be able to integrate the porch light with alexa or any other kasa devices on your main account once it’s separate.

        Sure, but that’s the OP’s problem, not mine :)… Already lots of alternate suggestions to his problem, I didn’t need to pile on. When I checked the only answers close to what he ask was “no” which is wrong. A separate kasa account for this solves the problem. And it’s easy to reset the kasa to gain it back if the relationship sours since he has physical control of it.
