> 3 dayHave multiple WiOn plugs. Fantastic product until Apple upgraded operating system to IOS 16. None of our devices work and have been advised by representative of company that there is no intention to do so in the near future. So, beware if you plan on using an Apple device to operate these devices, they are not compatible with IOS 16. BUYER BEWARE.

> 3 dayThe device is supposed to connect to your homes router, but when I scan for networks, it doesnt see either of my two home Wi-Fi networks. It sees my neighbors networks, but doesnt see mine. There must me some incompatibility with my router. My internet service is Spectrum and the router is provided by Spectrum. Without being able to connect to your router makes it useless.

> 3 dayWorth the money. Have had these in use for several years. We use them to control heaters in small equipment sheds without having to leave the house. These are indoor units. We also have two outdoor units to control heaters in our work trailers. We had one go out so we had to purchase a new one. Bought this set of two so we have a back-up. Will buy again and again.

> 3 dayJust awful! It does not remember whether its supposed to be on or not, if the power goes out. It just shuts itself off. If you have it plugged in, and its on, and there is a blip in your power, then when the power comes back on, the Wion switch decides to be off, even if it supposed to be on. Has its own internal timer that when I set it to come on at 12:00 am and turn off at 11:59 pm (always on) it still will not turn itself on if the power goes out. You would think that a smart outlet would know whether its supposed to be on or not, by checking the Schedule when it comes on. It doesnt do that. Just stays off.

> 3 dayIt works with the timer when programmed BUT (and this is why I give 2 stars) you have no access to it from the app when away from home. I can not even see it connected. That is a big flaw.

> 3 dayBought several of these to use with a few lamps around the house in order for lights to turn on/off while on vacation. Previously used dial and digital plug in timers that had to be manually set. The WiOn works great and can be controlled from your phone. The phone feature is really useful for when you are coming home after dark and want to turn on a light or two to greet you or if you forgot to turn the light timer on before you left! Setup is fairly easy to figure out and once done, youre good to go. The phone app is not all that fancy and could use an upgrade on the user interface overall look. But that said, the app is quite functional and works well. I would definitely recommend this product.

> 3 dayI bought it to take back control of my TV. 2 things i dont like about it. 1. The override button, if the TV shuts off, they can just reach behind the TV & press the button. 2. Anyone can connect to it, so my kids all had the app and could control the TV. Kind of defeats the whole purpose of buying it. (Plus they would mess with whomever was watching TV)

> 3 dayResearch for additional options. When this works it’s great but I’ve had to reconnect to the router three times since buying less than a month ago. It’s great to turn on from anywhere but not if it doesn’t stay connected. Both the inside house and outside plug drop. One is in the room with the router and the other is right outside the room window. Again, great - when it stays connected.

Greater than one weekI bought bunch of these plugs because they were cheap and someone easy to put in but I wish I had not ever installed them.. They are very unstable and hace to be reprogrammed frequently.. I should have spent the extra money for a more reliable product.
