I was frustrated installing this. Nowhere n the instructions did it say to just use HomeKit for Apple users. Don’t go through the Meross app for this. If it doesn’t work, use your 3G WiFi. Once you get it installed you can use 5G WiFi to turn it on and off.

Since I already had the Meross garage door opening, I decided to give the smart outlets a try. The shipping was fast and the set up instructions are simple. Since I already had the Meross app, I went to add a device and it worked on the first try. Then I linked the Meross app to google home and I could easily control the light with my voice.

The smart plugs is very easy to set up with HomeKit once you turn off 5Ghz Wifi. It is very important as it is only working with 2.4 ghz. However, once I with back on the 5ghz wifi the connectivity to home kid on my iPhone xs max and se are not consistent. It connects half of the time, I would have to walk over and switch it off / on manually. It could be software issue? I guess. Hope future firm ware update would fix the problem.

Items I have connected through a hub dont react as quickly to activation as these do. They are a very welcome addition to my HomeKit.

I wanted reasonably priced smart plugs that are compatible with HomeKit. This 3-Pack fits the bill and it was the same brand of smart power strip I had previously bought that simply just works. If I had to nitpick I’d wish they’d make low profile smart plug.

Purchased these plugs for my holiday lights. Pretty easy to use after a few failed attempts at connecting to my Home set up on my phone. The clicking sound isnt terribly loud, but noticeable if in a quiet room, with a slight delay. Overall not bad though, good value as you get two.

I think its fair to include my original review below. However, my issues have since been resolved. I will give 4 stars because now that all the devices are working, they do the job exactly as expected. It should be noted that I left my previous review after multiple weeks of repeated troubleshooting, using multiple devices. The one that did set up correctly was set up weirdly and not according to the simple setup instructions. The other two would not configure through the Home app no matter how I tried. After completely giving up, weeks later, I finally received a reply from Meross Support via email. The reply offered absolutely no additional insight and simply re-iterated troubleshooting steps Id already tried. Nevertheless, I decided to try setup again, as theyd asked for a screen recording of the process to aid in troubleshooting. This time, however, both devices which could not be setup previously completed setup through the Home app simply and flawlessly. Literally, the only thing that has changed is that time has passed. But... as things stand, theyre now working as advertised and I no longer need to troubleshoot these. Original review: I purchased this three pack and have only been able to set up one of them. Even that one was tricky, but it behaved differently than the other two. None of them would set up in the Home app initially. Every time, Home fails to add them. For the one that worked, I was able to join my phone to the devices’s WiFi network and set up through the Meross app. Once in the Meross app, it set up through the Home app just fine. The other two force setup through the Home app only and will not complete set up no matter how I try. I have used multiple devices, with different versions of iOS to try this. THEN I reached out to Meross support. TWICE. NO ANSWER. ITS BEEN TWO WEEKS SINCE THE INITIAL REQUEST. I will never, ever purchase from Meross again. AVOID this company.

A pretty decent plug overall. It works fine when it works I had trouble setting up one of the plugs. It wouldn’t connect to homkekit. But the other two worked fine. I gave up on the weird one after a while since I only really needed to use two at the time. The size is more bulky but Not as long as the wemo ones. The price is great. I also like how the homekit sticker is on the outside.

Im using iphone 11 to install these outlets on a Smartthings hub Im sure Im just a noob, but Ive had enough smart products to notice ones that havent resolved many install concepts. NOTE - you have to have a Meross account for this to work, would have been nice to know before purchase, I would have just bought smartthings outlets to avoid that process. When you install on the iphone using the smartthings app here is what happens. 1. Smartthings tries to connect with meross app (whick you wont have an account) and you cant add a new account here. 2. So then you download the meross app and register a new account. 3. It tells you to select the device in wi-fi. Except, when you do this apple will force you to install this on the apple home, which is not the same as meross app. 4. Once you complete the install on apple home, then you can reload the meross app and find unbound devices and add it there. 5. Then you can go back to smart things and add the item with your account there. I was not able to find these install instructions on meross site, or through the app. It describes a much smoother process that I cant seem to find.

Like: Very easy to set up and seems to work just fine. noted: Only connects to the 2.4 GHz band Weird: The switch is connected to the lower receptacle of a wall duplex. A digital clock was connected to the upper receptacle and kept perfect time before the wifi switch. With the mini wifi plug installed below, the clock gained about 10 minutes per week. Benched the clock in another room (on another circuit breaker) and the clock kept perfect time. I no longer have a scope to check the AC waveforms at the switch plugs so cant determine what is going on.
