Easy to install with Apple Home

Fairly easy to set up, work great once they are.

I’ve been using these for about 3 months now to control my exterior patio lights. They started out great with easy setup and fast connection via HomeKit. They stayed connected well until the temperatures here in Minnesota started dropping below freezing. To be fair, the description does say these are only rated for use above 32F… but I have multiple other smart accessories (plugs, bulbs, doorbell, cameras, etc) from more well known brands that have had the same (or worse) exposure to the cold and are still operating just fine. Additionally, updating these plugs is kinda wonky and buggy in my experience.

Overall, I love this product. However, one of my wireless plugs has hiccups occasionally and won’t respond in my Apple home hub, which is where I control my smart switches and plugs through. If I go through the Meross app it works fine though. A little frustrating but not the biggest deal. Plugs work well besides that one hiccup

I added the Meross switch to HomeKit via the Home app on my iPhone, plugged it in, said “hey siri turn on the living room lights”, and the lights came on like the first day of Genesis. It’s literally that simple to setup.

I bought 4 of these and they were all difficult to set up. None set up on the first try. I had to ensure my phone was on the same wifi network (the devices require 2.4GHz), reset my phone at least once, and reset the devices at least once before the setup finally took. The only reason this is still 4 stars is that once the major headache of setting it up is done, they have been rock solid for me. They are also a decent value for the money. In case anyone is wondering, your phone can go back to using the 5GHz band once setup is complete.

I have 6 of the Meross smart plugs. They are easy to setup and use with my Samsung Smarthings app. When the power goes out, they always come back online without me being there to reset something.

Constantly disconnecting. At least twice a week I have to unplug them and plug back in to reset.

These are the plugs I use in my “smart apartment”. They definitely do work once you get them set up properly. I had some issues setting up a few of them and it took me longer than I would have liked to spend doing so. Design wise I would prefer something less bulky, but for the price point I am happy with these. I will continue to repurchase these even though set up can be frustrating at times.

These plugs worked fine for a while, then they did a firmware update and they no longer work correctly, they will still turn on and off but the status on my Echo 10 always reads off no matter if the plug is on or off the status never changes, I am about ready to pack them all up and send them back to Amazon,.just as a side note I bought two more of there plugs with a different firmware and those two work fine, I am also running the latest firmware on the plugs that don’t work I just updated a couple days ago, they seem to work fine on Apple home kit but if you use Alexa your probably goi g to have a problem, at least I did, and yes I did reset the plugs it didn’t help
