If it’s for a lamp, a smart plug will do it (although they’re incredibly ugly).
Leave the lamp inline switch on and use the app/timer/IFTTT/button on the plug to control the bulb.
We have a couple of these https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07GWWRK1C/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_eX4MCbJTDP3SK

Yeah you've nailed it. I want to be able to turn it on manually without having to get my phone out, when the schedule is for 'off'
@aggi Yeah I did see the Beyond one, but at £250 was a bit much. As you and @Ramsaye say seems the best option is Bulb + remote.
I am very tempted by smart lighting, auto quick dimming in the evening would be brilliant. All our ceiling lights are chandeliers though (no queen of Versailles) so just lamps for now!
Thank you everyone!
