This will update the SMARTCAM Time module so that manually setting the time will function correctly. An important note is that this turns off NTP time updating.

Pull request overview

This PR fixes the SmartCam Time module's set_time method to properly set the device time manually. The fix addresses three key issues: formatting local_time in UTC (not machine local time), removing microseconds from the timestamp format, and switching timing_mode from "ntp" to "manual" so devices accept manual time updates.

Changes:

  • Fixed time formatting to use UTC without microseconds (format: 'YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS')
  • Added logic to set timing_mode to "manual" before updating clock_status (for devices that support it)
  • Combined zone_id and timing_mode updates into a single API call for efficiency
  • Added comprehensive unit tests covering all device types (cameras with timing_mode, hubs without timing_mode)

@rytilahti After further investigation, there appears no way for set_time to directly set the clock time on SMARTCAM devices. The set_time commands have been updated to correctly handle the timezone now and removed the sending of the seconds_from_1970 through the setTimezone function since it does nothing. Confirmed that this is all handled correctly now and that if the device is connected to the internet, it will pull the correct clock time via NTP.

This should be good to go.

@rytilahti Yea, I forgot to push the commit, lol I re-worked it yet again. Give it another once over and let me know if this looks cleaner. I made the changes to the fake_smartcamprotocol.py for the multiple calls issue in the tests. Then, modified the tests correctly in the test_smartcamdevice.py, added instance checks in the test_cli.py and test_common_modules.py to handle the specifics that the smartcam/modules/time.py only sets the timezone and not the time and modified those tests accordingly and to catch the warning in the test_common_module.py. This looks cleaner to me now as well but let me know if I'm still missing it.

While I was reviewing (see the comments inline) and reading the PR description, I started to give second thoughts on whether we really want to do this, i.e., what's the use case?

If the reason for this is to allow changing the time zone, perhaps we should add an explicit method for doing that & just raise an exception about setting the time is not possible? This way, the interface would keep working on as expected which would keep our tests clean.

What do you think, @ZeliardM?

@rytilahti The reason I kept it all as the same paths as the other device types instead of separating out of an explicit method is because the other device types, IOT and SMART, all handle time and timezone under the same method and interface. SMARTCAM is the only one I have seen that cannot do an explicit set time function. So the modifications were to keep it all the same. Is what you're asking if I think we should separate timezone and time for all device types? Now, given that setting the time is not an option and the timezone should be NTP it really could be irrelevant to have this at all for SMARTCAM and just raise the error. Another thing is for people who do not use the App to set up the camera and set things up from scratch with python-kasa and don't allow the camera out to the internet then at that point NTP wouldn't work to set the time or timezone and they would need the option to at least set the timezone but still setting the time is not available. So if it were me, I would probably just raise the error and move on. Either use case, this doesn't really offer much in the way of functionality that would benefit the user in a meaningful way.

Updated in 0f3892d to keep the shared set_time() entrypoint while making the SmartCam behavior explicit and testable:

  • SmartCam set_time() now updates timezone settings only and logs that clock time cannot be set directly.
  • Non-ZoneInfo timezones are rejected instead of silently sending only an offset that may be ignored on readback because zone_id remains authoritative.
  • Common time and CLI tests are back to the shared SMART/IOT clock-setting contract with no SmartCam isinstance branches.
  • SmartCam-specific behavior is covered separately with @device_smartcam tests, including the warning, timezone-only update, naive datetime handling, fixed-offset rejection, and parametrized offset formatting cases.

Validation run locally:

  • uv run mypy tests/smartcam/test_smartcamdevice.py
  • uv run pytest -n0 tests/smartcam/test_smartcamdevice.py tests/test_common_modules.py::test_set_time tests/test_cli.py::test_time_sync tests/test_cli.py::test_time_set
  • uv run ruff check kasa/smartcam/modules/time.py tests/smartcam/test_smartcamdevice.py tests/test_common_modules.py tests/test_cli.py

I also checked coverage for the modified SmartCam time lines; the changed executable lines are covered.

(2026-10-04)

[Full
Changelog](0.10.2...0.11.0)

**Release summary:**

This is a huge and long overdue release, coming more than a year and a
half after the previous one.
Hopefully the next one follows sooner, as the TPAP transport (which did
not make it into this release) is used more and more on newer devices.

This release brings broader camera support, new modules for lights,
vacuums and cameras, and many connectivity fixes for newer firmware
versions. Some other highlights:
- Improved Tapo camera support: login version 3, presets, wifi handling,
last alert detection, and more robust authentication and discovery.
- Selective room cleaning for robot vacuums.
- Configurable light strip length via the new strip segment module, and
an exposed light transition state change flag.
- Basic HomeKit module for Kasa (iot) devices.
- Energy monitoring V2 support (S515D).
- Better hub and thermostat state reporting (hold, summer mode, low
battery).
- Connection fixes for newer Tapo firmware and older SSL devices, plus
KLAP v2 for iot devices.
- More resilient time handling, with failover and UTC fallback for iot
devices.
- Python 3.14 is now supported.
- Inclusion of fixtures for 29 devices or firmware versions, including
the Tapo C460, C200 and C101 cameras and the KH100 hub with KE100/KE110
thermostats.

**Thank you to all contributors!**

A big thank you to everyone who contributed to this release, whether
through code, device fixtures, bug reports or testing.

Special thanks to @ZeliardM for a huge effort on both features and
project maintenance, including but not limited to:
- Features like the HomeKit module for iot devices, iot time module
failover, wifi handling and credential improvements for cameras, Tapo
login version 3, and V2 energy monitoring for S515D.
- A lot of necessary maintenance work including type annotations and
cleanups throughout the test suite, modernized docstrings, CI hardening
with SHA-pinned actions, and many bug fixes. This helps us to keep the
library maintainable and open to new contributions.

## [0.11.0.1](https://github.com/python-kasa/python-kasa/tree/0.11.0.1)
(2026-10-04)

[Full
Changelog](0.10.2...0.11.0.1)

**Release summary:**

*Note: 0.11.0 was tagged but never published to PyPI due to a packaging
issue. 0.11.0.1 contains the same changes plus a fix for the release
workflow.*

This is a huge and long overdue release, coming more than a year and a
half after the previous one.
Hopefully the next one follows sooner, as the TPAP transport (which did
not make it into this release) is used more and more on newer devices.

This release brings broader camera support, new modules for lights,
vacuums and cameras, and many connectivity fixes for newer firmware
versions. Some other highlights:
- Improved Tapo camera support: login version 3, presets, wifi handling,
last alert detection, and more robust authentication and discovery.
- Selective room cleaning for robot vacuums.
- Configurable light strip length via the new strip segment module, and
an exposed light transition state change flag.
- Basic HomeKit module for Kasa (iot) devices.
- Energy monitoring V2 support (S515D).
- Better hub and thermostat state reporting (hold, summer mode, low
battery).
- Connection fixes for newer Tapo firmware and older SSL devices, plus
KLAP v2 for iot devices.
- More resilient time handling, with failover and UTC fallback for iot
devices.
- Python 3.14 is now supported.
- Inclusion of fixtures for 29 devices or firmware versions, including
the Tapo C460, C200 and C101 cameras and the KH100 hub with KE100/KE110
thermostats.

**Thank you to all contributors!**

A big thank you to everyone who contributed to this release, whether
through code, device fixtures, bug reports or testing.

Special thanks to @ZeliardM for a huge effort on both features and
project maintenance, including but not limited to:
- Features like the HomeKit module for iot devices, iot time module
failover, wifi handling and credential improvements for cameras, Tapo
login version 3, and V2 energy monitoring for S515D.
- A lot of necessary maintenance work including type annotations and
cleanups throughout the test suite, modernized docstrings, CI hardening
with SHA-pinned actions, and many bug fixes. This helps us to keep the
library maintainable and open to new contributions.

## [0.11.0.1](https://github.com/python-kasa/python-kasa/tree/0.11.0.1)
(2026-10-04)

[Full
Changelog](python-kasa/python-kasa@0.10.2...0.11.0.1)

**Release summary:**

*Note: 0.11.0 was tagged but never published to PyPI due to a packaging
issue. 0.11.0.1 contains the same changes plus a fix for the release
workflow.*

This is a huge and long overdue release, coming more than a year and a
half after the previous one.
Hopefully the next one follows sooner, as the TPAP transport (which did
not make it into this release) is used more and more on newer devices.

This release brings broader camera support, new modules for lights,
vacuums and cameras, and many connectivity fixes for newer firmware
versions. Some other highlights:
- Improved Tapo camera support: login version 3, presets, wifi handling,
last alert detection, and more robust authentication and discovery.
- Selective room cleaning for robot vacuums.
- Configurable light strip length via the new strip segment module, and
an exposed light transition state change flag.
- Basic HomeKit module for Kasa (iot) devices.
- Energy monitoring V2 support (S515D).
- Better hub and thermostat state reporting (hold, summer mode, low
battery).
- Connection fixes for newer Tapo firmware and older SSL devices, plus
KLAP v2 for iot devices.
- More resilient time handling, with failover and UTC fallback for iot
devices.
- Python 3.14 is now supported.
- Inclusion of fixtures for 29 devices or firmware versions, including
the Tapo C460, C200 and C101 cameras and the KH100 hub with KE100/KE110
thermostats.

**Thank you to all contributors!**

A big thank you to everyone who contributed to this release, whether
through code, device fixtures, bug reports or testing.

Special thanks to @ZeliardM for a huge effort on both features and
project maintenance, including but not limited to:
- Features like the HomeKit module for iot devices, iot time module
failover, wifi handling and credential improvements for cameras, Tapo
login version 3, and V2 energy monitoring for S515D.
- A lot of necessary maintenance work including type annotations and
cleanups throughout the test suite, modernized docstrings, CI hardening
with SHA-pinned actions, and many bug fixes. This helps us to keep the
library maintainable and open to new contributions.
