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.

    Add an automation for Alexa to scream all over the house when left on outside the schedule. It’ll reeducate everyone to turn the lights off when done 😉

    Now seriously: you could use another automation to turn it off after some time. Or improve it with presence/motion sensors to turn it off when no-one’s around.

    Finally, if you really want to let her control the lights, I guess you could expose those to a “new virtual” house and invite her to that house. I’m not sure how it could be done in Alexa, though.
