WELLCOME TO THE FORUM
I did not get your idea exactly.
Do you already have a switch in front of the socket you want to supply with a Shelly?
If yes you could install the Shelly direct behind this switch, put the output of the switch to the "SW" of the Shelly 1 and connect the cable what is going to the socket to the "O" (output) of the Shelly.
Then you can control the socket by either the existing switch and additional remote via Smartphone.

Thank you! Sorry, the explanation was a bit confusing.
I have a outdoor wall socket, and beside that there is a switch. Check the attached picture.
I mainly want to use the wall socket for my car heater, and that way I need to be able to control it with the Shelly app. But I also want to be able to use the socket with power washers and stuff like that, and at those times I want to be able to turn the switch on with the button on the side. But the switch cannot cut the power to the Shelly 1 right? Because that will turn it off and hinder the ability to turn it on with the app?
Hello jockebq,
Here is what you need. With this connection you will be able to switch the socket with the APP and with the switch itself.
