Turns out that my other smart plug isn't Kasa, but an Amazon smart plug. Which I set up with minimal issues. However, it does not do what I want to do--I want to use it as a sleep timer. There doesn't seem to be a routine for that--I don't want to schedule on/off times every day; I want to turn it on whenever and have it turn off an hour later. I could do this with the Wemo app when it worked; it seems to be beyond the capabilities of the Alexa app. The sleep timer is the only reason I want to use the stupid smart plug; otherwise I could use the dedicated remote.
So ... I tried redoing the Wemo plug setup; it's working properly now, but it initially worked properly yesterday too, so who knows how long that will last.
OtinG, I don't know anything about hubs; I know both these plugs worked when I used them for Christmas lights, which is the last time I used them.
The Wemo app allows you to set "rules" that include auto-off after a specified time. Does the Kasa app have that?
