This guide will show you how to connect your Tapo/Kasa device to your Google Home. Once connected, you can use simple voice commands to control Tapo smart plug and smart bulb, or stream your Tapo camera videos on your Google Nest display.

Step 1: Link your Tapo/Kasa smart device with Amazon Alexa referring to: How to make my Tapo/Kasa device (smart plug, smart camera, smart lighting) work with Google Home

Step 2: Control your Tapo/Kasa smart devices based on the below voice commands.

Example:

“Hey Google Show My Front Door Camera” (It will play the camera on the Chromecast-enabled device)

“Hey Google Show My Front Door Camera on my Chromecast”

Currently, the Tapo/Kasa cameras don’t support “camera on/off” command due to possible security risks. For example, an intruder could potentially shut off your cameras with a simple command.

*Note: “Camera Name” is user-defined in the Tapo App.

The length of time you can stream the live feed through Google Assistant

Watching the live feed of Tapo/Kasa cameras through Google Assistant will use your internet traffic as it’s a Cloud-to-Cloud service. In consideration of your extranet traffic and performance, the live feed will stop automatically after 10 minutes. You can ask Google to show the camera again if you want to continue streaming.
