Wemo WiFi Smart Plug is smaller than ever and gives you total control over your lights and devices. Turn them on and off from anywhere using the Wemo app or by using your voice with Apple HomeKit, Amazon Alexa, or Google Assistant.* You can also set schedules and timers for lights and devices. Or use Away Mode to randomly turn lamps on and off when you’re not home. Sync lights connected to the Smart Plug with the sunset and you’ll never have to come back to a dark home. Smart Plug’s extra-small design—45% smaller than the previous model—won’t cover both outlets, freeing up the second outlet for a second Smart Plug to connect fans, lamps, and other devices.

Control your Home Anywhere: The Smart Plug uses your existing home WiFi network to provide wireless control of lamps, fans, and more with no subscription or hub required.
CONVENIENT, COMPACT DESIGN: With its sleek, compact form—45% smaller than the Mini— the Smart Plug fits into any electrical outlet without obstructing other sockets. This allows you to stack an additional Smart Plug or another device in the same outlet
SCHEDULE LIGHTS AND DEVICES: The Smart Plug lets you easily set automatic schedules for any device that’s plugged in—from lamps to fans to disco balls. Using the free Wemo app, you can schedule a fan to turn on at noon or synchronize a lamp with the sunset, so you never come home to a dark house.
PROTECT YOUR HOME WITH RANDOMIZED LIGHTS: With the ability to randomize your lights, our Smart Plug protects your home better than a mechanical timer. When set to “Away Mode,” the Smart Plug will turn plugged-in lights on and off randomly to make it appear like you’re home, even when you’re not.
HANDS-FREE VOICE CONTROL: Pair with Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant and Apple HomeKit to control lights and devices with your voice.

WORKS WITH APPLE HOMEKIT: Compatible with Apple HomeKit, you can control your Smart Plug with the Apple Home app and Siri from your iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, Mac or HomePod. Ask Siri to turn on the lights and brew your coffee when you wake up.

Product Datasheet/Brochure

Q: Support 5GHz wifi?

A: No. It works on the 2.4GHz wifi. You have to switch to that before you can set it up. Otherwise you will likely get an error message saying the accessory is not compatible with your router. Very misleading. This is not specified in the instructions.

Q: I know the product is compatible with Apple HomeKit. Can you set up through HomeKit with out using the Wemo app? And does it have the HomeKit QR code on the product?

A: I set 3 of them up today without the Wemo app. Just added a device in Apple HomeKit then scanned the QR code an was good to go.

Q: I don’t see a specification for wattage. Are these safe to use with an electric teapot or other high current devices?

A: Hello. The Wemo WSP080 is safe with electronic devices and appliances so long as it won’t exceed its maximum rated output wattage of 1800W.

Q: Is Best Buy’s Wemo smart plug compatible with Apple HomeKit?

A: Hi, Viki. The Wemo WiFi Smart Plug is compatible with the Apple HomeKit app.

Q: Can this be used outdoors if in an outdoor rated outlet?

A: These are not rated for outdoor use, so I would not recommend that. However the company does make outdoor-rated smart outlets.

Q: If I set up the Smart Plug schedule to go on at sunset and off at sunrise using the WeMo app then does the app have to stay running or is the schedule saved in the Smart Plug?

A: Saved in plug.

Q: When I plug these into a light, can I dim the floor lights through the app?

A: No, Ma7eo. The Wemo WiFi Smart Plug (WSP080) doesn't support dimming feature.

Q: If I’m away and the internet goes down at my house will the scheduled on/off still work? Would I get a notification if the internet went down?

A: Hi, Jbell. As long as the rules are already saved, it should still continue to perform even if the internet is down. However, you won’t be notified. If the Wemo device is no longer detected from the Wemo App, it is possible that the connection is down.

Huge fan!!
We at first bought Kasa smart plugs and after working on installing for a few of hours, we discovered that it wanted 2.4 hz WiFi in order to work which I had no idea how to switch my WiFi. We returned them and bought the WeMo plugs and are a huge fan!! Installation was under 2 minutes and it was very easy to connect to google home. It’s also slightly slimmer than the Kasa and the packaging was cute and easy.

They Work Great...After Setup
Generally speaking, I really like these Wemo smart plugs. For starters, the design is excellent. They are smaller than the original Wemo Mini and can therefore fit into tighter places. The glossy white color matches standard white outlet covers so they don’t stand out like a sore thumb if they aren’t hidden behind anything. These Wemos also shine when it comes to compatibility with smart home devices and app design. While some brands only work with one, Wemos work with Alexa, Homekit, and Google. I am personally using mine with Alexa. Once you activate your plugs within the Wemo app, you simply enable the Wemo skill in the Alexa app and everything syncs automatically. The Wemo app is simple and easy to navigate. Once everything is up and running, the app opens to your plugs with power buttons that can be operated anywhere in the world, as long as you have an internet connection. The Wemo app gives you the ability to change the names of your plugs and schedule times that items plugged into the outlets should be on or off. It’s pretty slick having the lights turn on for you in the morning! Sadly not everything about these Wemo plugs is perfect. Learning how to set these up was an inconvenience for sure. These plugs are only compatible with the 2.4 GHz ‘band’ coming off of your WiFi router. Most people have dual band routers in 2020, so this itself is not a problem, it’s just how Wemo goes about connecting to your router in the first place. During setup, I expected that I would have to choose a WiFi network for the plugs to connect to, like most internet-connected devices. Instead, the plugs automatically connect to whatever network your phone (or whatever device you use to set the plugs up) is connected to. This means you have to go into your WiFi setting on your setup device, switch to the 2.4 GHz connection (assuming you were connected to 5 GHz), go to the Wemo app to set everything up, then go back to settings and switch back to the 5 GHz connection. Like I said, for me this was inconvenient, but for someone who maybe isn’t as tech savvy, it’s not intuitive and could become frustrating very quickly. Kinda hope Wemo can make this process a little simpler or maybe just allow their plugs to connect to either 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz connections. One other quick thing to mention here is that I have owned Wemos prior to these and could not get them to connect to shared WiFi networks, like those you find in university residence halls. Since owning those Wemos, I have moved, so unsure if this is still an issue. Just thought I’d mention it. Long story short, Wemo’s setup could be a little more straightforward, but once you’re up and running, you’ll wonder why you didn’t get them sooner.

Works great
I purchased this for a trip I had to go on. I wanted to be able to control my lights if I wanted to. The timer worked great. I have been using it with the Apple HomeKit app. It works great. Easy to setup. I would recommend this product.
