I have been using the Tuya Smart iOS app daily for a couple of years, including integration with Alexa. I have about twenty smart switches, temperature controllers and humidity sensors, plus some others. I am an IT professional and have reliable WiFi and internet at home. This app is absolutely excellent. It just works as it should all the time 100% without fail and has many brilliant features. The Alexa integration is perfect, as is the more advanced automation, which allows either very simple actions such as ‘turn a light on at a certain time’ (which Alexa can also do), to far more advanced sequenced automations such as triggering any number of devices based on sensor inputs reaching certain temperatures or humidities etc. I moved to this app - and make sure all new smart devices support Tuya before buying hardware - after some bad experiences with products and apps from other well known vendors. This Tuya Smart app and its huge multi-vendor range of hardware products that support it is truly first class. Works perfectly every time without a single failure of any kind, ever. I have not read other reviews. If there are any with less than five stars, my assumption would be that the user does not have reliable 2.4G WiFi, has unreliable Internet, or has not read and understood the very clear Tuya in app instructions. Brilliant. Thank you.
Simple Smart Home = 100% possible with Tuya
Karen Reviews!
I moved into my first home in 2022 & found 20 smart plugs in a charity shop at 50p each, bought them and found that they work with the Tuya app alongside my other Tuya devices. I control absolutely everything from tvs, lamps, fans, heaters etc through the use of these plugs, additionally I also have it paired to a humidity and temperature sensor which means it can automatically switch my electric blanket on if my bedroom drops below a certain temperature after a certain time - this app and the hardware have been an absolute game changer especially when paired with Alexa. I will be 100% buying more and more because the equipment and app are better designed and more UI friendly than market leaders to be honest :)Oh one extra thing - you can integrate this with home assistant for even better home automation, it even lets you view live energy usage from a single or all plugs combined - I find this really useful as I do energy shifting with Octopus.

Voila !( Apologies for puncts and typos-getting a bit impatient !)
Tuya smart for video doorbell
Bellringer man
A little disappointed that the despite all efforts I cannot get the doorbell to trigger my iPhone 13 to ring. I have separate ringers anyway but I was expecting to be able to use the app while away from home but no remote alerts are received. This was even after subscribing to the basic and sms plans. I tried subscribing to the phone plan as I thought that might be what was missing but the app won’t let me. The interesting thing is that the video is capturing and sending data to the cloud just not alerting me about it. So can review previous calls even though my iPhone did not sound an alert. I have checked all the various settings to make sure that they are set correctly including background refresh. Nope nothing works! I also have the iWatch that this app claims to be compatible with. Again I see later that there has been a caller but the watch has not vibrated to let me know it happened. There are definitely shortcomings with the way this app works with an iPhone.
