Amazon Smart Plug, for home automation, Works with Alexa - A Certified for Humans Device

Nothing

Had my bedroom lights plugged into this plug. My lights would go on and off in the middle of the night. It stopped when I unplugged it.

Alexa does all the work..

Title says it all. Didnt even have to run any setup, it literally autoconnected to alexa as soon as I opened the app. Easiest smart device Ive ever set up and pretty much my whole home is a smart home. It works perfectly. Look no further for your smart plug.

Initial installation was easy. Paired with Alexa quickly and was easy to turn on and off a light using Alexa voice commands or Alexa phone app. Adding a routine to turn on and off a light at a preset time was much more difficult. Plug came with no instructions. You must access online instruction on Amazons website. They were incomplete and confusing. I finally found a You Tube site that was step by illustrated step that helped me get the routine up and running. It now works perfectly but it was a long road.

I got these to control the Christmas lights. The design of the plug is terrible. It doesnt fit in any outdoor receptacle so you have to plug in an extension cord, puta your plug into that, then put an extension cord into the smart plug. I tried scanning the bar codes several times to pair with the Alexa, but the dialog box is splashed across the screen, blocking the target for the camera. You have to guess where to place your phone above the barcode. Then, when you KNOW you have it placed right, it says that it doesnt see it. I threw the phone down in disgust and walked away. When I came back, all of the sudden the plug was there! The programs allow you to choose Turn on one hour before sunset and Turn off at 10 pm all good, right? Nope. I tried, repeatedly, to combine them in a routine over two days. I gave up. I started to manually turn them on with my phone. Then, magically, as before, they suddenly seemed to work. I am a scientist who has to deal with weird non-intuitive software routines to run instruments all the time. If I didnt already have Alexa dots for free with my Sirius subscription, I would have chosen another platform. PS Alexa doesnt know anything so it is a complete waste of time to ask anything except the weather.

goodd product

Just finished a complete master bathroom rebuild and added my fun little lamp, Fergie to it. I wake up in the middle of the night and say Alexa Fergie On and I have complete light to the bathroom. Back to bed and say Alexa Fergie Off and its back to sleep for me! This smart plug synced automatically with my Echo Dot as soon as I plugged it in. So easy! Location is several walls away from my router and I have had no trouble with it staying connected to my Wifi. I am totally sold on the Amazon Smart Plug!

Love being able to control things with my voice. Recommend.

This is a great product, I just didn’t work with one of those lamps that you have to turn on every time you disconnect it, but I don’t complain, I just plugged my LED lights in it and it works perfectly! If I could give it more than 5 starts I would! Lol
