How can I connect my TP-Link Kasa Devices to work with Microsoft Cortana?

This Article aims to introduce how to connect the kasa device to work with Microsoft Cortana. Once configured, you can use the Cortana app to control the kasa device from anywhere with voice commands.

Before configuration

1.    Ensure the Kasa device is configured successfully and the remote control is working.

You can refer to the FAQ-1233 to configure the smart bulb and refer to the FAQ-946 to configure the smart plug/smart switch if you have not configured the kasa device successfully.

2.    Install the Cortana App on your phone. If you don’t know where to download the App, it’s suggested to contact the Microsoft support.
