Aoycocr Alexa Smart Plugs - Mini Bluetooth WIFI Smart Socket Switch Works With Alexa Echo Google Home, Remote Control Smart Outlet with Timer Function, No Hub Required, ETL/FCC Listed 4 Pack

Works as expected, easy to link after downloading app, used it on Xmas tree and it was set to auto shut off at 10 pm, worked perfect every night, But this product, you will like it

Great value for the money. It works 100% of the time, no issues whatsoever. It was very easy to set up, too. We got these to have control of our daughter’s TV at night to make sure the TV shuts off at a certain time. It is easy to control using the app on our phones!

easy to install and use...

Easy to install. You need to make sure you have access to your 2.4GHz wifi network. Once you do that the setup is through your phone (iphone in my case) where you find the device using their app over bluetooth and then it gets setup as a wifi device. You can then ask Alexa to search for devices. The only thing I will say is make sure you give the sockets sensible names when you set them up as this is how Alexa identifies them. Eg call the TV one “TV”, etc. They have the ability to add timers too so that works well for me as I have things set up on timers.

Got this for my Juggernog fridge to turn it on and off ever few hours. I only wish the apps had simpler timers such as turn on for x hours and off for x hours.

Love how it works. They could improve the on-off switch. When you plug it in, the power/Wi-Fi button is hard to get to. On the bottom, so when you’re close to the floor it’s hard to see what color it’s glowing. Also, written instructions are small, could be clearer, and were hidden on the side of the box. It took some doing but glad I bought them!

Cons: It uses its own app. So you have to have the app for this device as well as your Google home or Alexa app. It doesnt just connect through the Alexa app like smart lightbulbs do. Once you connect it to its app you can add it as a device to Google home. Also, you cant set up the timer within Google home. You have to do it on the app this product comes with. Of course you can create a workaround routine to do it within Google home but its kind of convoluted to create a time on time off routine that way. I didnt have any issues with the smart home app it came with, but it looked cheap so I was really worried itd have issues. The shape could be improved upon. If it is plugged into a 6-plug outlet converter, it will make the inputs to both sides of it unusable. Im sure there is some way to shape this so that there isnt that problem. Pros: Clicking sound! gosh I love it! When it turns on, you hear a loud click. First it kind of scared me, because the sound is a little reminiscent of an electrical problem in the outlet, but its just to let you know the outlet has gone on or off. That is my favorite thing about this. I use it to control my space heater, so I feel safe when I tell Google to turn it off and I hear the click sound. This was also the cheapest smart outlet I could find on amazon. It stays connected and synced to Google Home 100% of the time as far as I can tell, which is impressive to me- even the most expensive Smart Bulbs will sometimes lose connection.

Works as intended. Kept failing when trying to use my 5GHz wifi. Switched to 2.4GHz and connected fine. I assume it isnt compatible with the 5GHz frequency.

Great product! Works Just as described.

This is my second Aoycocr WiFi plug. The first one gave me zero issues and I needed a second one so I choose to buy it again. I used one for my Christmas tree and the other for the outside Christmas lights. I choose evening and morning schedules plus names for them using the Smart Life app. I even installed the Smart Life app on the wifes phone so she could turn on the lights whenever she wanted. Everything worked flawlessly. I used this plug outside tucked under an eve for my Christmas lights. I worried moisture would be an issue but it was fine. Im already using the Smart Life app for WiFi lights throughout my house and the plugs fit right in with the line up. If you unplug it from the wall it goes offline until you plug it back in. Reconnect time is just a few seconds. I do have access to Alexa using my Fire Stick so I set that up as well. The grandkids had fun turning lights on/off with the remote. Great plug and simple to use.
