    Are you using any sort of home automation system (Google, Alexa, Siri, other) or just using the Kasa app? I use Home Assistant along with the Adaptive Lighting integration with my bulbs and LED strips, which works on circadian rhythm and does exactly what you're wanting to do.

    My home has never felt this "smart" before. Every time my lights turns on I find the color and brightness to be perfect.

    If you're starting from scratch with a new build, I would recommend Home Assistant with the Adaptive Lighting Custom Component.
  • Circadian lighting without the "smart"

    Personally, I use this Integration within my home automation hub. It took all of 5-10min to set up, didn't require any additional hardware, works with all of my existing bulbs and strips with CT and/or brightness control, updates my lights every 90s, and slowly transitions to the next setting over a 45s period. Any time I make manual adjustments to any light, it holds that setting until I turn the light off.

    Probably not the solution you're looking for, but I use Adaptive Lighting with Home Assistant. Doing it at the hub level (instead of the bulb or app level) means you aren't restricted to a specific brand/protocol. As long as the light has dimming and CT controls, it just works. (I use it with several different LED strips and several different smart bulbs.)

    I think the best method to do this is with this home assistant integration: https://github.com/basnijholt/adaptive-lighting
  • Daylight and soft white bulb automation

    Any CCT capable light will be able to achieve this, but the level of automation will depend on the app/hub you pair them with. Inovelli, Ikea, and Philips have some good options, but will all require an appropriate Zwave/Zigbee hub. Personally, I run Home Assistant in conjunction with the Adaptive Lighting Add-On to handle the CT automations.

    Which one? Adaptive Lighting is MUCH more configurable than the stock Flux Integration, and can dim to off at sunset.
