meross Smart Plug Mini, 15A & Reliable Wi-Fi, Support Apple HomeKit, Siri, Alexa, Echo, Google Assistant and Nest Hub, App Control, Timer, No Hub Needed, 2.4G WiFi Only, 1 Pack

I was so looking forward to using this plug with Apple HomeKit, but unfortunately it will not connect. I’ve tried every troubleshooting option provided by the manufacturer, and listed in forums without success. Worse - I’ve reached out to the manufacturer and have received zero response.

I have seven Meross products, and they are all great. This one controls my landscape lighting, and works flawlessly with a HomeKit automation to turn on and off at sunset and sunrise.

Impossible to add to HomeKit

I love this smart plug, it was easy to set up and took my like 30 seconds to install in using the Apple HomeKit app.

Simple to install and get working. I used the Home App to setup the plug and the download the merls app to update the firmware. one note in order to get the plug to be recognized by the meross app i had to reset the network settings on my iPhone. its also says that on their instructions. i use Siri and it works great. only had it for a about a week though.

It took a while to figure out the installion sequence but the device works great (so far).

Setup was annoying. I could get it in HomeKit but the app is very finicky about adding the device in the app itself. I honestly wouldn’t care about getting it in the app except for that HomeKit keeps telling me it need an update that can only be performed by the app. Took awhile but finally got the firmware updated which stopped HomeKit from messaging me every few hours to tell me that it needed an update....oh wait. No it didn’t. It keeps messaging me even though no updates are available. I checked online and this is a widespread issue. I gave it a couple weeks and the problem isn’t going away. I just bought another outlet brand and this one is either going to someone I hate or in the trash.

Perfect smart plug. Good size. Using on Apple HomeKit - very quick and easy setup!

I had old Wemos (bought before Home app and a code to scan) that wouldnt update after hours so removed them from Homekit and ordered one Meross plug. I had read that some people had issues with 2.4/5 Ghz of Eero so went to Eero settings and turned off 5 for 15 min. I had one error--sure because I scanned and didnt get in plug to power fast enough (too hard to reach to scan after inserting in plug). I tried again through Homekit, scanned, plugged in quickly, a few minutes at most and connected-added to the correct room in Homekit and named it. Checked turning on and off via Homepods--works great, just like before-or in Homekit. Am ordering another for a different room. I would recommend if all you need is smart plug. I will add automation for the other one. House is redone completely but 116 YO so its not very amenable to Smart Home so this is my one foray into Smart Home LOL (aside from ATVs and Homepods)

Are use this all the time! Works really well with Siri/Apple home and super easy to set up. I now have three and plan to get more in the future. Highly recommend
