Govee Smart Plug 15A, WiFi Bluetooth Outlets 4 Pack Work with Alexa and Google Assistant, WiFi Plugs with Multiple Timers, Govee Home APP Group Control Remotely, No Hub Required, ETL&FCC Certified

Like other Govee products, these work with ease. I knocked off two stars to get Govee‘s attention. The thing that these plugs lack are the ability to give a location to each plug. My attached picture is a screenshot of my Kasa smart plugs. As you can see, I can name the device and give it a location (i.e. Christmas Light, Front door). It’s important because all three outlets for me are Christmas lights but on Kasa’s app I can see where those plugs are and Govee’s I cannot. I would assume this is a simple fix via app update but I don’t know. Hopefully they will reach out to me and let me know. As of know I prefer Kasa Smart Plugs for that feature.

These plugs were easily connected to my network and enabled to work with Alexa. 5 ⭐

I use this with a light to start my garden seedlings. The app and setup is really easy. I also love that you can specify different settings for each day of the week. Can go on vacation without worrying about killing my plants.

They do perfectly the job with Alexa integration. Easy to install and easy to use.

Perfect to power cycle my modem and router as needed :)

I have a few items from govee and I dont have any issues

It was difficult to break open the plastic enclosure. But once that was done, I was able to remove the AC input and output connectors and the part of the circuit that uses AC power to supply 5V to the relay and radio. I now supply 5V from another source and use the relay to switch a DC circuit on and off. I am able to control that circuit from 50 km away, using a different internet service provider. The Govee application installer requires permission to access irrelevant information such as location. Setup requires entering the local WiFi password. With this information, the device is a network security risk. It could contain malicious code itself or be vulnerable to hackers who could insert such code. To reduce this risk, Im considering setting up a separate WiFi router for this and similar devices, isolated from that used by computers in the house.

The app is really intuitive, I am able to connect it to the wifi so I can access them when Im not home/with Google, or I can just use Bluetooth to set up timers and forget about it while it runs on its own. Very useful.

Works on my garage door opener. I use it to turn on and off the power to my garage door opener when I leave my house.

I purchased several Govee Bluetooth lightbulbs, and use them around my house. They are fantastic, offer many options, and best of all, I dont need to worry about wasting my limited bandwidth on yet another smart device, since many devices are currently connected to my router. I have older appliances that I would love to also control via the Govee App, so I purchased a 2 pack of these, hoping to consolidate multiple devices onto one app. The ad description says that these smart plugs work via WiFi and Bluetooth. I purchased them believing that I had an option of one or the other. Not the case. These ONLY work with WiFi. Bluetooth is only used ONCE, to connect them in the pairing process. There were a myriad of problems, resulting in me throwing away 3 in the trash, and keeping only 1, so brace yourself. Firstly, it needs a 2.4 ghz connection, which was a nuisance to activate on my router, since everything I have connected to it uses 5 ghz. Once I did that, I followed the instructions, and the red light on the Govee device NEVER turned blue. I restarted my router, made sure the settings were correct, and still nothing. I used a friends WiFi hotspot, set to 2.4, to see if that would work, and nothing. I decided to contact Govees Help Center, via the app. The rep was courteous, and did what he could to help, but he troubleshooted with me the exact same steps I had already performed, and still nothing. I was shocked, and thankful when he offered to send me two more, free of charge. When the two new ones arrived, the first one I took out of the box worked! The light turned blue, and I am still currently using it. I took the second one out the box, and it too decided to fail me, like the original ones I purchased. Thats 3 out of 4 that do not function. A 75% failure rate, is enough to tell me that these things are not worth buying. The one that I use, does function, but it doesnt use bluetooth to do it. Ive tested turning a device on and off, with bluetooth on my phone switched off, and it functions, proving that the process is entirely done through WiFi. For the record, WiFi is faster than Bluetooth. The Govee Lightbulb takes 3-5 seconds to connect on my phone, that has Bluetooth 5.0. The WiFi plug takes barely 1 second, which is amazing. The difference? When I recently moved, I was using my Govee Bluetooth bulbs BEFORE I even had my ISP connect Internet to my new address. I also took one of my Govee Bluetooth bulbs to my brothers house, for a party he had, and it worked, without having to pair it to his network. Too many smart devices rely solely on WiFi, and dont utilize Bluetooth enough. Not to mention how unreliable pairing these devices can be. I was willing to deal with the plugs being WiFi, despite being misled in the description. With 75% of the ones I tried, failing, and 100% of the Govee Bulbs that Ive purchased working, I can only wonder if my concerns are just.
