> 3 dayThis product is exactly as described with some minor issues… One of the plugs somehow follow a different timezone??? It turns on an hour early than the other ones even though they all have the same timer settings. Not a big deal for me since I mainly use these for my grow lights. The prongs also do not turn so you just need to be wary of how your outlets are laid out, otherwise, it’ll end up taking more outlet space in your extension cord etc. Not necessarily the smart plug’s fault but just fyi, this only works with appliances with a manual type of switch, the kind that clicks. It does not work with appliances that has a touch on/off. I was bummed to find out my levoit humidifier doesnt work with this, but oh well. As for the good things: easy to install, connected to my wifi right away, easy google home set up (idk about alexa, I don’t own one), no stupid ads on the app, no annoying notifications.

> 3 dayI use them for the bedroom lamp so I don’t have to get out of bed to turn it off. I use them for my grow lamps and water filter for my aquaponics system. I also use them to automate my reptile tanks lights, heat lamps, and water fall. I had trouble with one outlet out of two boxes (4/box) and contacted them through fb messenger to see if there was a way to fix it. They asked for my order number and sent out a replacement and haven’t had any trouble since.

> 3 dayThis is a very good value for the money. It does work fine with Alexa after the relatively simple instructions are followed. I probably missed that other software was needed to use this. Not sure I would have bought if I was fully aware which I admit is my issue. I Just prefer using the fewest apps / brands / companies possible, whenever possible.

Greater than one weekLove these smart switches. I have one on the TV/Nintendo switch that is only on for the hours my husband is home, and another in my boys room that turns their night lights on at bedtime and turns them off a few hours later. Super easy to set up. A little unsure of the company itself and having an app on my phone, but overall choosing convenience at this point.

> 3 dayAt nearly the one year of ownership mark, all 4 plugs stopped working. Nothing has changed with my WiFi settings, placement of plugs, etc. They just will not work no matter what I do to re-pair them. Warranty claim submitted...lets see if this manufacturer will replace under their terms and conditions. Ill update when I hear back. UPDATE: Well, Ill give them a ton of credit. They got back to me very quickly. Their response... My sincere apologies for the inconvenience. Our tech team found the IoT Services have been down, affecting all Wi-Fi-related app features. As a result, your devices might not be working correctly. At this moment, we are working diligently to fix the issue. Once there is any up-date, we will let you know through our forum or notice in the APP. Thank you for your patience and understanding. Best regards, Nicole Lets see if the products operation gets fixed on the back end. My only concern...Nicole insists theyll get back to me in the app with an update on the products operation. If theres a problem as stated, why not notify me in the app, too? Just a thought, of course... They fixed the problem but Im dismayed at the communication. They have a hidden message board in the app that controls these plugs. Thats where the outage was divulged. I would think that would be a banner in the app, something more apparent.

> 3 dayI love these! Install the app. Connect it to your alexa app. And my echo dot (5th gen) can turn them on and off for me! Especially when I dont want to move the couch to unplug something. Its so nice. I feel spoiled having these.

> 3 dayI recently received an echo show as a gift. This was my first experience with smart products, so I wanted to give its features a try. The first thing I turned to was a few plugs so that I could automatically turn things off when I leave the room or the house. Initially I tried a different brand that has great reviews, but as soon as I got them, I realized how awful they were - they were huge, didn’t have Bluetooth, and were a pain to connect. Govee to the rescue! These are like a luxury item in comparison to those. The Govee plugs are so easy to set up, the app just works, and has more features than I know what to do with. You can choose how you want to pair them (BT or Wifi), and the process is more or less automatic from there. You can set timers. Oh, and a feature I didn’t think I cared about quickly became my favorite one when I remembered how often I need to manually reset my router. With the other plugs, I would still have to get up and go unplug and re-plug everything in. With the Govee, even if WiFi is down it can connect via Bluetooth, so resetting it is just as straightforward as it would be if the WiFi wasn’t out. I’ve never had an issue with BT range - my phone and echo are probably ~40 feet from the router, through some doors and through a brick wall. It’s a small, but welcome convenience that I never want to live without again. I’ve had these for about 3 months now, and so far I haven’t had a single issue. My only “complaint” is that I wish they tracked power usage. I have a power strip from another brand that does this, and while it’s not needed, it is nice to know. If I can see where the bulk of my power usage is coming from, then I can be more mindful about what appliances are running and when. All in all, I recommend giving these a shot. I had an issue with another Govee product (I say issue, but really it was a that they didn’t fit where I intended to use them), and their customer service was incredibly proactive in reaching out to me and rectifying the problem even though it was well past my return window. I feel good about my purchase and love knowing that if anything were to come up, the Govee team will be there to help.

> 3 dayThese units are easy to set up and operate from their app on your phone. I purchased 8 of these and they all worked perfectly and have been working for about 2 months now without issue. I look forward to purchasing more Govee products. I dont use Alexa so I couldnt rate them for that.

Honest feedback from an honest guy
> 3 dayI bought the Govee Dual Smart Plug 4 Pack, 15A WiFi Bluetooth Outlets because I love Govee products and the Govee Andriod Application. I use the Govee Andriod software to monitor ambient air temperatures in my computer case and control the lights on my computer cabinet (those lights provide ambient mood lighting & trigger visual warnings when temperatures are getting critical inside my computer tower). With these power outlets, I can control the power of things that are a part of my office/studio. It made sense to add the Govee Dual Smart Plug Outlets into the mix. I plugged all 4 Smart Plugs into the same power strip because certain things need to be on when others may need to be off. I love turning devices on and off with an Android device. The Govee app is easy (at least for me) to set up and utilize. The outlets also give a satisfying audible click when you turn them on and off. I also love that I can turn one side of the outlet on and the other off or both off if Im not using the outlet. I feel like an astronaut turning my computer on and off. Lots of buttons to press and things to monitor, and colorful lights. (starting score: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐) The Govee App doesnt currently allow the functionality to flip outlets around in the application, making it an annoyance to figure out which outlet is on which side. I labeled each dual outlet device with a number (1, 2, 3 & 4) with some masking tape, and then I had to turn each outlet on and off to determine if it was the left side or the right side. Its not a big deal, as I figured it out, but that would have been easy to program into their application (they currently let you do it with their Govee Lively Light Bars). The UI in the application is comically oversized for what it is. I can only see four outlets on one screen, where they could have easily reduced the amount of UI space needed to see at least a dozen outlets on one screen. I also would have appreciated a Widget functionality on the Andriod device so I could turn things on and off without loading the Govee app but rather from my devices home screen. I would love to have given these a 5-star review, but I found some unfortunate realities to owning these outlets... The outlets lack integration and automation (such as turning things on or off when the Govee Thermometers reach a certain temperature). Not having this capability is quite an oversight. Itd be great to have a Govee thermometer reading the room temperature and then have the Govee Outlet turn some other device on or turn off (like a fan or an air conditioner) when temperature thresholds have been passed. With the Govee Lively Lights, I can currently do this and I have the lights turn on and turn off when ambient computer temperatures reach a certain point. I cant get these outlets to do anything except manually turn them on and off or specify certain hours to turn them on or turn them off. I expected more functionality and integration into the Govee ecosystem with a smart outlet but it came up short. I can live without these functions, but I need clarification on why this functionality is missing. Itd be an awesome product if it were smarter. I know Govee frequently updates their devices with firmware updates, so it may exist someday. (-⭐) I should also be able to designate what kind of communication method I want the device to use instead of hogging up every Bluetooth communications channel with outlets Im not interested in interacting with. My Andriod tablet can only support a maximum of 7 Bluetooth device connections at once. If I try to add more outlets, I may run into issues with being unable to read a more important BlueTooth device (for example, a thermometer in my computer). These outlets use both WiFi and Bluetooth. How the device decides which to use is beyond me. I havent witnessed anything like this happening yet, but I am aware of hardware limitations. I wish Govee had made outlets available in black and white. I dont mind the color white, but sometimes I dont want to draw attention to a power outlet. I should be able to turn the outlet indicator light on and off while leaving the outlet on or off. They could have also added an LED to allow the Govee outlet to work as a nightlight. (-⭐) It will serve the purpose I intended to buy it for. Still, there isnt as much tender loving care for these outlets from Govee compared to other Govee products. These smart outlets need to be smarter. I would recommend these if you are looking for a basic remote on/off smart outlet. However, this is one bun that needs to go back into the oven. A 3-star rating implying its just ok is a fair assessment of the Govee Dual Smart Plug. (Final result: ⭐⭐⭐)
