I have had a battle trying to set these up with HomeKit. Meross provides a ton of troubleshooting methods such as restarting the router, turn iPhone on/off, switch Wi-Fi to 2.4GHz, factory reset the switch. I have never been more frustrated setting up a HomeKit product. After all this troubleshooting I could only get 2 out of 4 to pair, and after all this troubleshooting I have no idea what was actually successful. The two that are paired work great, but my oh my was getting them setup a huge pain. EDIT: once they are paired, they are a breeze, and an awesome product that is great for the price.

We use this for our LitterRobot and used it for our Christmas tree and our bedroom lights. It’s great because it connects with Google Home and Apple HomeKit so automation options are fantastic. It’s also very helpful for hard resetting the devices connected to them, especially while traveling.

Lo emparejé con Siri, es excelente producto

I liked that these integrated with Apple Home as described, however my WiFi is weak I think as I had to keep devices close to my WiFi transmitter for them to stay working.

Overall, a great purchase. Not only do you kit Homekit usage, but also Alexa. I set my MESH Internet system to only use the 2.4 GHz for 15 minutes during install. Used Homekit App to setup by (+) adding an Accessory. I had to make sure that I had enough light on the barcode, so that my phone would start setup. The code on the Mini Plug is visible in the picture. I blocked out with a red circle as to not share the code. After that you could then use the Meross App, the same App I use to control my Garage door, with their great Meross garage door opener adapter as a retrofit, for my 10 year old garage door and opener. I then added this Smart Mini plug to Alex, and it turns on and off, via my Alex App. I am an IOS Apple person, so it was nice to use Homekit. I had tried Homekit earlier in my making my home smart, and I was pleased to be reminded how nice it works. Now I have many choices. They work great.

These things pair with HomeKit instantly and easily, be sure to take a picture of the QR code on the plug before you plug it in, then just copy and paste it from your photos to HomeKit app.

Had another brand I got from a friend and they weren’t that reliable or hooked up to Apple HomeKit. These do and they are so fast! There’s no delay when pressing the button on my iPhone. Love that! Would highly recommend if you are looking to get your house outlet plugs hooked up with HomeKit for cheap.

I had a plug before that the app no longer worked with my Apple integration, so tried this one. It was easy to install, but there was slight confusion between using the Meross app or Apple Home. Perhaps if there is a newer version of the app you would be able to tick a box to use one or the other and keep it that way to avoid the confusion.

Pro: size - two plugs easily fit in a standard double outlet and on standard size power strip (on compact strips you would still be able to fit a two-prong plug next to it.) This is a huge improvement over the old TP-link plug that took up 2 spaces on my power strip even when it was placed on the top (see picture.) Operation & Integration - once connected the plug just work. I quickly forgot that they werent always there; waiting for my command. I can turn off all the lights in the house from the iphone flip-up screen. Installation - Like a lot of Meross products, the plug has EZ mode and AP mode. The detail instruction sheet takes you through EZ mode. However, the plugs were all in AP mode (slow blink) and I could not get it to blink fast even after 3 resets. Once you get over the fact that the instruction sheet is quite unhelpful and follow the instructions below, and you will find that installation is a breeze. 1. Plug it in. Make sure that the light blinks green/amber. If its steady green, as in a previous setup, press and hold the button for 5 seconds to get it into setup mode. 2. on you iPhone, go to Settings | Wireless. wait a few seconds until the plug shows up under the heading set up new device... The name is meross_sw_B210 or something similar... Click on it. 3. You now get a message that allows you to Add to Home & Wi-Fi (see picture.) Smash that link to turn on the camera and scan the top of the plug to add it into Homekit. 4. After about 30 seconds Homekit allows you to select the room and name of the new device. The phone automatically switch back to you home wireless network. cons: Not a huge issue, but the position of the button on the side of the plug could be challenging to your less techie household members. The ability to share homekit settings with everyone can mitigate the issue, but Im a bit concern that Ill get a talking-to the next time my wife tries to turn on the floor lamp in the den. I have a couple of floor lamps and my Roku device connected to plugs. No more having to get up to manually reset Roku. A voice command to Alexa does the trick. The 4th plug is connected to my electric tea kettle to schedule it for my morning brew (until I get a smart tea kettle, but thats a battle for another day.)

I have been slowly adding HomeKit products to my house and these might be my favorite! I wanted something easy to use for my window Christmas candles and these were honestly perfect. I was able to add each plug through the HomeKit app directly (no need to use the Meross app), grouped them together and now all of my candles come on at sunset and turn off either at midnight or when I tell Siri goodnight. Very happy!
