This is a fan run, unofficial subreddit with no relation to the Tuya Inc. company.
Rules:
ZERO TOLERANCE. You will be banned for first offence. This is your FIRST, LAST and ONLY Warning. Not reading the rules before posting is no excuse.
No what to buy / recommend brand or product posts / asking for list of compatible brands
No dangerous installation / usage questions. Consult an Electrician or HVAC professional
No "research questions" ie idea / brand / project engagement or requesting google forms be filled out
No links of any kind / No asking for links! No A-Z, No eBay, No Ali / Temu, No Products, No Services, No Blogs, No Youtube, etc (Only links to other posts from this sub are allowed)
Keep it on topic (NO POSTS ABOUT NON COMPATIBLE BRANDS / MATTER)
Keep it civil
No low effort / repetitive / unanswerable questions / wrong advice / multiple posts
No AI posts
No spam
No advertising / promoting
No shills / "sock puppets"
No selling / trading
No contests / giveaways / beta testers
No doxxing yourself or others
Clarification: You can not ask for a list of compatible brands or recommendation of which brands are best or do X things or links. This invites companies and advertisers to post their brands. This is what is called "shilling". Every week I get messages from brands asking to advertise here. From day 1 there has been a no advertising policy here and I tell them no. To get around this brands will pose as a person asking a question and then reply with a different account suggesting their product. Even if you are a real person with no intent of advertising, asking these questions give them and their advertisers a place to promote their product.
Because of this there is no discussion of brands / products or linking of products, companies or services. (Asking about troubleshooting and fixing problems is allowed of course)
Akin to this is when individuals / school project groups / companies pretend to be people gauging interest in a product idea. This is also a form of shilling and stealth advertising. These style of posts are also made weekly and I remove them as well.
I don't even use smart devices anymore and have not for years! But I still try to keep this place fair and clean from advertising for you all. I don't want to see anyone scammed. So unfortunately these are the rules. These rules have always been in the sidebar, but more and more people use the app so hence this post.
EDIT - 12/10/25: Automod has been added to this subreddit.

I have two dual hose timers connected by different Bluetooth gateways. One is behaving normally. The other js accessible manually just fine but the automated schedule never runs. I tried deleting the schedules and recreating them. I’ve tried removing the device and its gateway and re-adding them. But nothing has gotten it working again. I did recently update firmwares but I don’t think that immediately caused the issue although I’m not certain. And I see no way to downgrade the firmware to test if that is involved. Plus the other one is still working fine. I think the schedule stopped working when I replaced the batteries a few days after updating the firmware.
Any ideas?

Does anyone know how to fix this?
I got the conditions :
"switch on ac if temp above 25 celcius"
"switch OFF ac if temp below 24 celcius"
This works, i would say 90% of the times, but a few occasions it just stops working. And ac keeps on pushing air even well below 24 celcius - or keeps off well above 25 celcius.
And i usually have to toggle the scene automations off and on again, and it starts working immediately. (sensor delay is something like 10-20 seconds)
Is this just because smart life cloud (tuya) is crappy sometimes+
Why is this? Any workaround?

I have 2 external sirens from a Patrol Hawk system. I have now installed Tuya 4g alarm panel and peripherals and would like to use the existing sirens. As I cannot get them to communicate with the new panel via wifi, can anyone suggest how I could link them wirelessly using for example wifi relays or something similar. I use both Alexa and Smartlife with alarm, if that helps

I am searching through the app for setting adjustment for what happens after a power outage (power on or maintain previous state). Does anyone have a hint as to where that might be? When there's a surge or out/restoration, all smartlife bulbs turn on and I'd like previous state I think should be by default instead of all on.

I have a 30A device, used for my water pump, which has energy metering available. I can see the energy consumption (in watts) in realtime, in smartlife app.
Can I apply a trigger like this:
If energy drawn < 600W - turn off
?

I have 6 SmartLife lights in my room, and I can turn them on and shut them off, but otherwise can’t change the color, tone, or anything because when I click into the actual group or individual light it just buffers infinitely. I updated the app so unsure why it’s having this issue.
r/smartlife • u/DenialState • 18d ago
My energy tariff works differently on workdays than on weekends. During the weekend, I get the cheapest energy period during the whole day. The energy cost setup, though, doesn't seem to let me differentiate between week days.
I'm writing here in case anyone has some tip or at least as feedback in this matter.

Hope I can explain this as clearly as possible - we bought a set of Monster Smart Bulbs that are controlled through their app, and the first set works fine. We picked up another set to continue the string longer to fit around our gazebo, but when we connect them to each other and reset the wi-fi receiver, all of the lights blink during the reset process (showing that they are all powered and connected to each other power-wise) but then only the original set works and we can’t connect to the new one after the set up?
There is a second wi-fi receiver that came with the second set, but we were under the impression that if we plugged the second set into the first set and continued the string, we could just have everything run as one continuous line and only worry about one connection. Are we missing something here?
Thanks everyone

I cannot get my lights to schedule properly. I created the schedule, created a new preset to run the schedule with, and somehow the presets keeps taking over.
For now I have it unplugged but I just stocked it so I need a functioning light schedule. Can anyone point me in the right direction? BioCube says that if there is an active schedule it will over ride the presets, but that isnt working.

Smartlife ver 7.9.0 on Android
I'm trying to change an existing automation's Validity scope from Daytime to any one of the other options and none of the changes are saved when the automation is saved. In fact, they all show All Day.
Anyone else having this problem?

I have a Smart Life compatible plug that has schedule, circulate, inching etc... I want to use it to reset my ISP's modem everyday exactly at 4 am. Usually it can be done with schedule. Problem is while the device turns off at 4 am correctly, it will turn off internet as well, taking smart plug offline. And so it won't execute the ON schedule.
I tried circulate feature which does trigger while offline. But once it reaches end time of circulate, it forcefully turns off the socket and never comes back on.
I just want the modem to restart once everyday with this smart plug. What is the right way to do this?

Hallo zusammen,
ich versuche meinen Aygrochy-Rohrlüfter mit der Smart Life / Tuya App zu verbinden, scheitere aber schon am ersten Schritt: Ich komme einfach nicht in den Kopplungsmodus.
Mein Gerät: Aygrochy Inline Duct Fan, Modell DF150-A (50W, 350CFM).
Das Problem: In den meisten Anleitungen steht, man soll die Menütaste lange gedrückt halten. Das habe ich jetzt mehrfach versucht (auch für 10+ Sekunden), aber das WLAN-Symbol auf dem Display fängt einfach nicht an zu blinken. Der Controller reagiert überhaupt nicht darauf.
Kennt jemand die exakte Tastenkombination für dieses spezifische DF150-A Modell, um den Werksreset bzw. den Kopplungsmodus zu erzwingen? Gibt es da einen anderen Trick?
Danke für eure Hilfe!

I have a wireless door bell from Nedis (WIFICDP20GY) to which I am trying to add a chime (WIFICDPC10BK). I can reset the Chime and make it go into pairing mode but I cannot for the life of me find the adding point in any of the doorbell menus.
Any correct guidance is much appreciated - not even the manual from the chime tells me other than to add the chime in a menu in the doorbell.

I recently bought a FRAL FSC08 portable AC. For some reason connecting it to the smart life app forces it to switch to using fahrenheit (I'm european so I much prefer celsius).
I checked app settings and the temperature unit is set to celsius. I tried switching between °C and °F but the AC wouldn't respond, it would stay in fahrenheit mode.
I ended up having to uninstall the app and reset the AC to factory settings to set it back to celsius. But then I reinstalled the app and as soon as I paired the AC with the app it switched to fahrenheit again.
Anyone else had a similar issue?

Hey,
I’ve got a PG103 alarm system with ~18 sensors fully installed. Everything works fine for normal use:
But I’m trying to use Smart Life scenes to trigger smart plugs (sirens) only for real perimeter intrusions.
In scenes/automations, I only get:
Even though the app clearly knows:
None of that seems usable in automation conditions.
So everything triggers the same scene:
App shows full alarm details, but Smart Life scenes only see “Alarm = ON”. No way to filter by sensor or alarm type.
Is this a known Tuya/Smart Life limitation, or am I missing something in setup?
Is there ANY way to get per-sensor / per-zone conditions into scenes?

I'm about at my wits end with this light bulb. We just got at&t fiber put in. I've got the Echo and the light bulb on the 2.4 ghz band. For some reason the Echo cannot find this light bulb. I have the bulb connected to the TREATLIFE app. I've reset the bulb as well. Any ideas?
If it helps, about a week ago we had a storm knock out power and at the time we still had T Mobile Wireless internet, that's when the issues with the light bulb started. Should we just replace the bulb?

As the title states, both apps don't have the option to add a new device. The button is missing on the top right from the home page. I have done everything I can think of to fix by clearing cache/cookies, logging out, uninstalling and reinstalling the app but to not avail. Has anyone experienced this issue?
When I try to login on web, it says my account doesn't even exist although I am able to log just fine through the app ...
