Works well once I got it to connect to my wifi. I like how you can set different settings for each outlet.

I wouldn’t buy this Smart Plug because it constantly loses connection with the app. I have had nothing but issues since I purchased this for our Christmas lights. I have had to contact support three times. Not worth the frustration!

Thank you for considering Cync. The Cync Outdoor Plug can be set up in the Cync app, the Alexa app, and/or the Google Home app to take advantage of smart features like Out-of-Home Control and Routines. If you would prefer a device without smart capabilities, you may be interested in a traditional outdoor plug instead. Please feel free to contact us directly at 1-844-302-2943 for any questions or assistance. -Cync Support

Nice Plug

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
I was in need of an outdoor waterproof plug and found this GE-Cync plug. It is well made and works well. I would give it a better star rating if the software was better. It was very "Glitchy" to get it to set up and I can only control the plug sporadically from my phone, and it is offline with Google most of the time.
