VOCOlinc Homekit Smart Plug Works with Alexa, Apple Home, Google Assistant, WiFi Smart Plug That Work with Alexa, Electrical Timer Outlet Support Siri, No Hub Required, 15A, 2.4GHz, 110～120V, 4 Pack

Was ridiculously easy to set up with Apple Home. Works flawlessly. Voice commands with Siri work and are fast. Timers and automations set though the Home app work perfect. I started with 4 to use with Christmas decorations and now am ordering more. Exceeded all my expectations so far.

Once you got it figured out, operate perfectly.

3 of 4 of these joined HomeKit network without issue. The 4th tried multiple times and will not connect to HomeKit thru the Home app or VOCOlinc app. Also tried to add to Google home and also was not able to connect.

app may need to be reinstalled but work well other than that

I was attracted to this four piece set for budget and compatibility with my HomeKit since I am just now building it. The ease and set up of each of these plugs, and the ability to name them was really ok. Several attempts at pairing may be required so patients when installing and follow app prompts. Once installed they are great! I do enjoy them and will buy an additional set to add to the rest of my electrical devices. Highly recommend for the price and the quality.

Lasted about a year then lost connection due to installing the vocolinc app to update firmware. Cant reconnect to HomeKit Over $80 in useless plugs. Do not buy. *Edited rating 4/17 - I shot-gunned enough fixes and found a solution.. I restored my iphone from a much earlier back up before the install broke the connection. I re-updated IOS and homekit. I factory reset the switch and tried it again and it was able to connect. This was probably over kill, but I could not find the specific solution online. What a MASSIVE pain to get these to work again. The plugs were fine until I tried updating the firmware through the app. something I will never mess with again. I will fix the 1 star review to a 4 star review.... because the plugs are fine, but the app is complete garbage. I should have read the other reviews before installing it.

I love it!

Ive had a few days playing with the VOCOlinc Smart Plug Mini 2 pack. The integration with my HomeKit system was easy within the Apple Home app. Once installed, I opened the Vocolinc app to see what other features are available with the devices. Once I selected the devices, they prompted me to download the latest firmware, which installed fast and without any issue. The only other feature I can see that the app provides is a timer to turn on or off the device. I will most likely use the smart plugs with HomeKit only and integrate them with my automation and scenes. Im currently using them to power lamps in my office. They also work great to automate a Christmas tree when the time comes. Pros: -Easy Setup -Small footprint you can fit two in one wall outlet -VOCOlinc updates the firmware frequently, giving me hope that they will patch any security vulnerabilities that arise. -Works with all popular smart home platforms -It comes with two devices per pack saving on cost when you need more than one. Cons: -None Yet

This is a good switch.. I bought the 2 pack. I really only needed one, but the price was good so I thought Im sure Ill find a use for the second switch. I was attracted to this because of the ability to integrate with homekit. I have an Orbi mesh setup, it broadcasts the same SSID for the 5ghz and 2.4ghz, with no apparent way to temporarily turn off the 5ghz network. The process to setup the switch goes like this on an iPhone. Download the manufacturers app -> click on add device -> You are then bounced to the homekit screen to scan the QR code for the device. Your phone MUST be on the 2.4ghz network for it to work. Thats where my problem was. I solved this by taking a 100ft extension cord and going out into the yard where the 5ghz doesnt reach. With phone connected to the 2.4ghz network (I can verify this by checking in the Orbi app), it had no problem setting up the first switch. I could not get the second one to work. As far as the working switch goes, no problems, works fine after unplugging and plugging back in where it connects to the 2.4ghz network with no issue. Hope this helps you make a decision.

I’ve tried a lot of Smartplugs and VOCOlinc’s Smartplugs are one of the easiest to connect to their app and Google Assistant and to use and control. I like that I can use them to turn off lamps, iron, hair straighteners, and other items around the house that can use a lot of energy when on / plugged in, but not used, and cause a lot of damage if left on. I like that it’s one of only 2 smartplugs brands that are compatible with the platform of an energy company in California called OhmConnect. So when the grid needs me to use less energy, OhmConnect turns my smartplugs and the devices connected to them off for me. I save energy and OhmConnect pays me for it. Now, I connect my boys’ computers to them to help preserve the battery. We always tell them to unplug their computers after school is over, but they usually forget. Therefore, I’ve scheduled the smartplugs to turn off everyday after school is over and back on in the morning when they start school again. So whether they unplug their computers or not, we’re covered.
