Smart Plug 4 Pack, Refoss Smart WiFi Outlet Works with Apple HomeKit, Alexa, Google Assistant, Siri, Timer & APP Remote Control, 15A

It’s not being recognized by Alexa

Easy to use

These set up with Apple Home right away. Scan the QR code, follow the directions and you’re using the device in minutes. I set them up to turn lights on and off. Responds well to “Hey Siri”, commands.

Works great with my Apple HomeKit Apple and Google Home, I don’t have Alexa so I can not comment on their apps capabilities but I’m sure it’s works just as well.

Loved this product wanted something that I could connect my Christmas lights too for my Apple HomePod. And this does just that. Exactly what I was looking for.

Very happy with the purchase. I am happy that I can give the outlets more custom schedules than even applehome allows from the meross app. Personally there are times where the device does not respond when I ask siri to turn on, which is a pain, but if i go to meross app i can click it on manually, or just press the button on the device itself. This is strange because i gave 2 of the outlets to my GF and hers never has that problem, so i wonder if its a wifi connectivity issue, perhaps my connection isnt as stable?

I have been all in on the smarthome since late 2017 when I bought my first connected speaker and just kept going from there. I have been moving everything over to HomeKit since last year and now most of my devices live inside the Home app on iOS and Mac. I believe that it is the best smarthome platform IF you care about privacy and collection of your personal data. If you dont care about that, then HomeKit is probably the worst platform, it has far fewer devices compatible with the ecosystem than Google or Alexa. Not to mention, it has a high cost of entry thanks to Apple products not being very affordable. I had a little trouble connecting this to my main network, its the first devices Ive tried to add to the Home app since my Eeros got the update that gave them support for HomeKit router compatibility. I tried and tried and could not get them to connect. I think this was my fault because I had WPA3 turned on and forgot to enable legacy mode for devices like these plugs that only support the 2.4GHz band. But after turning off WPA3 and putting the Eero Pro 6 routers into the right mode, they connected almost instantly. Since then, they have been working well with no problems using them from inside my home, or when Im out and connecting remotely. This is how HomeKit works, its a little different than Alexa, where your smart speaker calls out to the internet to control devices, regardless of if youre on your home WiFI network or not. I didnt test these plugs with anything except HomeKit, I just dont trust the other smarthome platforms anymore and try not to use them if I can help it. The Home app can really be a pain sometimes, but its designed with security in mind and that sometimes has to trump convenience. One thing to mention, despite these plugs being sold as Refoss brand, in my Home app, they show up as Meross which is another very similar brand with similar products to Refoss. It may be that both are owned by the same company. Great plugs for use with Apple HomeKit, and very affordable considering how much some HomeKit accessories can cost.

I wish they were smaller, many are nowadays, but at $10 a piece it’s hard to complain much. I plan to use these with HomeKit and my Christmas decor so I can easily kill the blowup decor and lights with my phone/voice. Ll

Can’t get any easier to control outlets then these…

When they work they’re great, but they stop working every night and need to be reset every morning (remote control functionality stops working - the base electrical pass through still works).
