Introduction
Smart homes aren’t just about individual devices — the true magic comes when everything works together. With Tuya Smart Life, you can create automated scenes that simplify your daily routines, from waking up in the morning to going to bed at night. In this guide, we’ll walk you through how to set up and customize Tuya smart scenes for different lifestyle needs.
What Are Tuya Smart Scenes?
A scene in the Tuya Smart Life app is a set of actions triggered automatically or manually. For example, one tap can turn off all lights, lock doors, and lower the thermostat. Or, a scheduled scene can prepare your home for your morning routine by turning on lights, brewing coffee, and adjusting room temperature.
Two Types of Tuya Scenes
- Tap-to-Run Scenes: Activated manually with a single tap in the app or via voice assistants.
- Automation Scenes: Triggered automatically by conditions such as time, location, or sensor detection.
Benefits of Using Tuya Smart Scenes
- Save time and energy with automation.
- Enhance comfort and convenience at home.
- Improve security by linking devices like cameras and sensors.
- Personalize routines to match your lifestyle.
How to Create a Tuya Smart Scene
- Open the Tuya Smart Life app and go to the “Smart” tab.
- Tap on “+ Create Scene”.
- Select either Tap-to-Run or Automation.
- Choose your trigger conditions (time, device status, location, or sensor).
