> 3 dayI’ve dabbled with some non-HomeKit smart sockets (Feit), which work okay-ish via Siri Shortcuts but it’s not the same as true HomeKit-enabled devices. Jumped at the chance to review these. Initially, hadn’t read any reviews and wasn’t aware that there was a third-party app from the seller. I just opened the Home app on my iPhone and added the socket by scanning the QR code. Easy. Done. Works. After reading around some more, found the eHomeLife app and installed it to update the firmware on the socket. Goofed by turning the socket off, so it seemed like it wasn’t visible on the network. After using the Home app to turn the socket ON again, the eHomeLife app found the socket, added it to the app and attempted a firmware update. It was a bit goofy with the firmware update too, where the app definitively stated “firmware available” but after a few seconds cancelled out the update and effectively said “jk, it’s already up to date”. Weird. Socket still working normally through Home app. I’ve got a standing lamp hooked up to one and use a Philips wall switch (the old round one) to turn the socket / lights on. Still figuring out scripting and tricking it into on/off functionality but that’s a HomeKit quirk, not related to the product! So far so good. Will update if there are any issues but they do everything I hoped they would and seem fairly priced, so 5 stars for now!

Greater than one weekSeemed like good value and practical design with the on-device button for manual operation. Setup with Apple Home App was reasonably easy too, but after ~1 year all my 4 devices stopped working - icons updating or not reachable all the time: Apple Home Kit cannot activate the smart plugs anymore. Resetting, readding and configuring does help for minutes only (while in BT range?).

Greater than one weekEasy HomeKit integration. Quick response to HomeKit actions. I use it to turn off fans when the rooms are empty and a turtle light after 8 hours. Don’t know how easy it is for Alexa or Google home though.

> 3 dayWorks perfectly when first connected, but stops responding to Alexa/HomeKit commands after a few hours and then can only be controlled with the built-in button on the plug. Unplugging & plugging the devices back in allows them to respond normally for a few more hours. Hoping this issue is fixed with a firmware update, but would recommend a more stable product I the meantime. Will update this review if the problem is resolved.

> 3 dayBought this this mainly for it’s supposed compatibility with HomeKit. Tried several times with all 4 units but gave up. Only works with its own app so far. Maybe the company needs to provide some kind of software or firmware update to make it work with HomeKit. Please fix!

> 3 daySame day delivery and easy to set up. Using with HomeKit to control the lights in my large home bar. Made a scene for Open Bar to turn the lights on and another scene to close the bar. No issues setting up or connecting. Make sure to use the refoss app. It will walk you through the setup and connect to HomeKit.

> 3 dayWe ordered these to use with HomeKit, specifically to turn on and off a few plugs that are difficult to access. At $8 a plug, they are reasonably priced. After updating the firmware with the eHomeLife app. we were able to easilt add them to HomeKit and include them in our automations. Overall happy with the Smart Plug HomeKit 4 Pack - Refoss Smart WiFi Outlet Work with Apple HomeKit, Alexa, Google Assistant, Siri, Timer & APP Remote Control, 15A for the price.
