Works with HomeKit
I love this item, I use it for my window AC unit. Works with HomeKit too so I can use Siri or Alexa to turn this outlet on or off. I don't even have to be home to turn it on. The app is Free and works very well. The setup was super easy and took less than 5mins.

Look Ma, No Hub!
This is one of the few Apple HomeKit-compatible outlets on the market that does not require a hub. You can control it over your home WiFi network, from an iPhone, using Apple's Home app. This characteristic, coupled with the device's low price, permits an economical yet powerful home automation installation. Optionally, keeping an iPad at home, or adding an Apple TV (the new 4K model or the prior 4th-generation one), lets you program events ("automations") and control the outlet remotely, when your iPhone is not on your home WiFi network. The manufacturer also provides a proprietary mobile app and an optional account service, allowing you to program events without using Apple HomeKit. Last but not least, the device reportedly supports home automation solutions from Google and Amazon. Having tried WiFi and Bluetooth outlets from two other manufacturers over the past two years, I found this one easier to set up. I installed the manufacturer's iOS app, scanned the unique code printed in the manual, and watched the app take control of the outlet and configure it for my WiFi network. The outlet soon showed up in Apple's Home app, and I've had no reason to return to the manufacturer's app. One thing that surprised me about this product is its high power rating. Some remote-control outlets support loads no larger than 500 Watts. This one can handle an 1800 W load, making it suitable for turning small kitchen appliances on and off. (A device plugged in to any remote-control outlet must have a manual, not electronic, on-off switch, or start itself automatically when power is applied.)
