Zigbee sensors with my wifi

I've got some Tuya wifi switches and thinking of getting the Tuya 2 in 1 Zigbee but from what I know Zigbee offers a smaller pool of compatible devices. Can the Zigbee sensors control my existing wifi switches? Not planning to change them all that's why I'm checking first. Thanks!
 
You'll probably need to double check the compatibility, but I think 99% everything should work just find as long as you set them up properly.
 
I had a setup that was pretty similar, where I combined Zigbee sensors with WiFi switches. It took some trial and error, but once I connected everything thru the right hub, the Zigbee sensors activated my WiFi switches seamlessly. Just make sure your hub can handle both protocols without any hiccups
 
Relying on Wi-Fi for smart home switches is like choosing dial-up in the fiber-optic age, Zigbee's mesh network is far superior for reliability and scale, and clinging to Wi-Fi just creates a laggy, congested mess.
