Smart Plug WiFi Outlet Work with Apple HomeKit, Siri, Alexa, Google Home, Refoss Smart Socket with Timer Function, Remote Control, No Hub Required, 15A, 2 Pack

I’ve had these for about 2 months now, and they work great. I have only had one issue, and that was when the HomeKit app was not connecting to the switch, so I had to reinstall them on both the Meross app AND HomeKit. I’m order to install it on the Meross app, you HAVE to install it in HomeKit first. But I have to give this company credit on reaction time. As SOON as your finger touches the on / off switch, it IMMEDIATELY reacts! Bravo!

I have several brands of wifi /app based plugs and for comparison they fit easily UK into the outlets, stacking in the wall outlets without crowding each other. The app is simple as can be and matching the outlets with the app took less then a minute, with setting the times/ schedule for on/off easy and intuitive. My Echo app hooked up to them in the same easy manner as pairing them with the app. Very happy with the purchase!

Works great and easy to setup with HomeKit. Just remember to set your iPhone/iPad to the right WiFi network (2.4 GHz), during the setup. Once it’s done, you can switch back to the 5GHz if needed.

I like the easy installation but the ability to schedule lights off after 4 hours is not possible.

I purchased this WiFi Outlet pair as the first devices to be part of my Apple HomeKit. Install was a cinch! For each I plugged the device into the wall, opened the HomeKit App where, it instructs the user to scan the device code and after about a minute, each one was operational. The devices came as a pair and I am controlling two separate living room lamps. I have a Scene where I say, Hey Siri Good Evening where the App turns the lamps on and one called Good Night where they turn off. The devices have worked perfectly.

Okay so I had a little issue getting it to connect to Apple HomeKit at first but finally figured out a trick (unless I’m doing it way wrong). I found I first had to download the Meross app PRIOR to adding it to Apple HomeKit. Once you have the app, hit the “+” in the top right and select your product (I have three outlets and a smart outdoor outlet). Then follow the prompts for that specific product (you can only add one at a time so don’t even plug the other ones in yet if you have multiples). The prompts will take you to wifi settings where you’ll see a new wifi signal pop up (starts with an M followed by other numbers and letters at the very bottom). You’ll select that and it’ll say “add to wifi and home” which is what you want to happen. You’ll then be directed to the HomeKit App and you’ll be prompted to scan the code on the side of the PRODUCT ITSELF NOT THE ONE ONE BOX. It’ll take a few seconds (be patient) and then you’ll be prompted to select what room the product is located in. After thats added, go back to and close the Meross app completely (you won’t be prompted you’ll have to go their manually) and then reopen the app. Click the “+” one more time and you should see the product you just installed in HomeKit pop up in BLUE at the top. Select that and that will officially add it to the Meross app. Close the app completely one more time and then reopen the app and your product should be listed. I know that was long winded but HomeKit is finicky so I figured I’d give some of my new found wisdom to the rest of you. This is an amazing product and one of the only smart outlets that works with HomeKit so be patient and let the apps do their thing. I promise you it’s worth it.

The initial setup was fairly simple although someone without a hub or any technical knowledge may find it difficult to set up the timer function without investing some research time. Once set up, the product worked reliably until I needed to adjust the timer. Then I tried connecting back to the device and nothing worked. I have spent a good amount of time trying to reconnect by resetting everything associated with the device which include the device itself, the manufacturers app, and HomeKit. I tried this multiple times and no luck. This renders the device effectively useless.I have contacted the support team and am currently awaiting a reply although I might soon call it a loss and invest in a more reliable all-inclusive system. The support email is [email protected] (fyi).

Another Refoss product that knocks it out of the park. The device is simple to set up - I was able to have both plugs functional in under 5 minutes. I love to play with home automation devices and I have used a lot of different products. Ive had setup problems with OTHER brands, including some name brands and the ones pushed hard by Amazon. Not these! These plugs are super simple to set up and just work...plain and simple. The plugs are priced well and have functioned flawlessly for me. They support Apple HomeKit and Google Home, and can also be controlled through the eHomeLife app. I added them through the eHomeLife app and then integrated them with my other devices connected to Google Home. They feel strong and durable. Not flimsy or cheap feeling at all. I now have 6 of them around the house, and plan to get several more soon.

I’m very pleased to find mini plugs that work with both HomeKit and Alexa and have ETL safety certifications. These are nice sturdy small plugs and although the fit is tight, you can indeed get two into a regular outlet. Set up with Homekit was very easy: The device was recognized immediately, added as soon as I scanned the QR code, and worked right away. Setup was a little more difficult with Alexa because the device needed a firmware update, and as long as it did, Alexa kept saying it was unavailable. Even though it worked fine with HomeKit. Neither the Meross app nor the eHomeLife app indicated a firmware update was needed on the individual device information. Instead, I had to go into the account information, and that’s where it showed me that a firmware update was available. Once the firmware update was complete, everything worked fine. So even though the installation process was a little glitchy, I’m very pleased with the plugs and with the quality of them, especially at this price. I expect to be buying several more in the future.
