YOLINK LoRa Smart Door & Window Sensor: Up to 1/4 Mile Open-Air Range, Door Left-Open Reminders, up to 5 Year Battery Life, Alexa, IFTTT, Home Assistant

Im sold on the Yolink product line. This door sensor was a snap to install and set up alerts on my phone. Im getting a couple more of these as well as their other products.

Great Product!!! You can used on door, windows. Super easy to setup(just scan the code bar). The integration with the HUB its a piece a cake(be sure to buy the hub separately or a combo). You can also buy a siren alarm from this same company if you want any noise for any who tries to enter your place.

I was cautious to order because there were not many reviews, but I am SO glad that I did. I cannot recommend the yolink products highly enough. They are incredibly easy to setup, and work flawlessly. Setup: The only issue I had during setup was the wifi did not want to connect. I connected the hub via ethernet to the router and it connected without issue. Once it was connected, I simply disconnected from the ethernet and moved it to the location I wanted the hub and it stayed connected to the wifi. Range: They arent kidding about the range on these products! Our chicken coop is over 400ft from our house, across hills/trees/brush and I have had zero issues with connection. Customer Service: I emailed customer service with a question and received an answer within the same day. Very quick, polite, and helpful. IFTTT Integration is very easy to use and works well, though I have found that I prefer the in-app automation since it there is no delay. I am using the yolink wifi plug to turn on/off a heat lamp for new chicks in the brooder based on an alert from the yolink temp/humidity sensor. If the temp gets too high, the plug turns the lamp off - if the temp gets too low, the plug turns the lamp on. Its working very well. I have had zero issues with the app and have found that it has all the functionality that I need.

I buy this with no idea what to expect. It was very simple to install. I am not a tech guy by no means and I love it. Our kids can open the garage door with an app from their phones. We are very glad that we bought it. I am going to buy some for my mother and other family members.

Bought one for each door and one for each window. Doors work fine. Cant even install in windows at all. Have normal vertical sash windows. Each sash takes one sensor rather than one for both (thats 2x sensors). There are so many window configurations in my home (vertical hinged, horizontal hinged all with indoor screens). Each type needs custom made spacers for the magnets to be installed. Im making them all but am very surprised that for windows theres not a huge variety of spacers for the magnets, 1/4, 3/8, 1/2, 5/8, 3/4. Sad story for what is great service, tech support. Also alerts are not good. Someone breaks into your home and you get the same phone alert/notification that you get for email, ebay, amazon. Got YoLink leak sensors and siren alarms too. When someone breaks in and they alarm you dont know weather to grab your gun or your plumbers wrench. Not well thought out.

Product itself is great but not getting timely push notifications when door is opened or closed. Only received them when clicking on the application itself. Have sent an email to the company requesting assistance but so far no response. I also have the SmartThings Hub and inotifications are instant and problem-free. I just received an email from the company and they said that there is a bug in the app and theyll be releasing a new one within 7 days Ill keep you posted as to the progress and update my rating as necessary App released this morning and now push notifications coming in just fine. They need to work on their English translations for the alert, but thats a minor issue. I hope this company succeeds they have awesome products!

I purchased this device because my husband kept leaving our front door opened. Can you imagine how frustrating that would be? So after looking at many of the available options on Amazon, I decided on this one. Customer service was incredible. They sent me instructions on installation and we’re extremely responsive to my questions. They have a YouTube channel that walks you through installing everything as well. They even walked me through enabling Alexa with my device. This device was very easy to install, but the best part is, it works like magic. Both my husband and I get alerts on our phones when the door opens and closes, and Alexa also chimes in! This was an incredible find, and I am so happy I made this purchase. No more opened door! I highly recommend this product for home security.

So I got into the YoLink LORA to get notifications from a mailbox about 200-250ft from my front door. Its a direct line of sight from there, but I started with putting the hub in the basement at the equipment rack. I figured if it didnt work there I could move it closer to the front of the house. I had no issues with range. The sensor will reliably work through a handful of walls, across the open field, and even from within the all metal mailbox. I have no doubt that without walls and a clear line of sight, 500ft would be simple. I actually think that the 1/4mile (1,320ft) advertised range might not just be marketing fluff. So far Im very pleased with YoLink. The app is easy to use, setup is dead simple, and the range is unparalleled.

great product - works good - Easy installation

Easy to install and reasonably priced.
