> 3 dayWant to water your plants Tuesday, Wednesday, Sunday from 1:11 am till 12:02 pm? Me neither, but with the scheduling function on this thing, it would be really easy. Attach to a pump and work out your drippers/connections. This thing will make turning the pump on and off the easiest part. It connected without trouble, and after the schedule completes, it creates a log of it having been executed-- checkable anywhere, on your phone.

Greater than one weekDoesnt connect to my wifi no matter what settings I change. I cant even bypass this step either. If you buy this product throw it in the garbage where it belongs. Cant even use it when I got it. Fix your app its broken.

> 3 dayIt doesnt get better than this! Well, better for them- worse for you. The product is cheap because it harvests your private data and ferrets it into their database. You are the product and this is spyware to a level not seen since facebook was introduced. In order to simply switch your plug on and off you need to create an online account, agree to anything and everything in their TOS, give them your wifi password, provide your location whenever you use the app, and when you don’t(!!), agree to marketing emails, navigate past their online store in the app, install a widget and update your device firmware to the latest no doubt network sniffing version. I feel sick. Its a data-grab and theyre taking the maximum possible leveraging your desire to turn a device on and off with a timer. Theyre going to sell your data to everyone and anyone, and if they say they arent that just means whoever buys their company will inherit the database and do it for them. No no no no, no no no. NO. NO. What am I saying? No means no. Hands off my private data. No you cant have my wifi password. No of course you cant follow me around. It absolutely is not your business where my product operates. Im not subscribing to marketing emails and accepting a terms of service in order to use a product I purchased. Its a plug. This is beyond invasive. Imagine going to a hardware store and purchasing a plug splitter only to find a staff member followed you home, and is sitting in a car outside logged into your wifi and waiting for you to leave so they can record your every move. The people you meet, the protests you attend, the stores you shop at, your gynecologist, storage locker, bar, significant other, and other, your office. Would that bother you? ***** On the other hand - if you are willing to totally sacrifice your privacy, the switchbot range of devices do a pretty good job. That is the parts of the app that were designed to serve you and not them.

> 3 dayGreat and simple product with a pretty user friendly companion app. Should have definitely purchased more to reduce the bills/automate a few processes around the home.

> 3 dayFirst off, this will only work on WiFi if you’re in the same exact room as your router. If there’s a wall in between the plug and your router, the signal is too weak (meaning they use a ridiculously cheap and inefficient WiFi antennae.) Second, the plus seems to severely reduce the power coming from the wall outlet; either that or the power reading feature is completely inaccurate. I have my iPhone plugged in and charging via 2.0Amp charger; the SwitchBot app says it’s only pulling 0.1A, or about 4Watts, which is not right. I got this smart plug to be able to charge my EBike battery, which uses a 2.0A charger. However, when I use it for that, it’s only pulling 0.1A which is not enough to charge the battery in the time it’s so poised to take. (Takes 10+ hours rather than 5hours, like it does when just charging from my wall outlet). Don’t buy this plug at all, I’ll be returning mine. Thanks for the inconvenience, I guess.
