Customers are saying

Customers are pleased with the ease of use and integration with Apple HomeKit, as well as the inclusion of Thread technology, which offers a smoother experience than Wi-Fi-only models. However, some users reported issues with compatibility and connection reliability, particularly when using Apple HomeKit. A few customers also mentioned challenges with the setup process.

This summary was generated by AI based on customer reviews.

    Use this plug to control my outdoor steplights. WeMo with Apple Home. However, my only disappointment is you can’t use it with WeMo App. Highly recommend.

    These are trash. They won’t work unless you use HomeKit and they won’t ever show in the Wemo App.

      Hi,

      We recognize how you feel. By design, the Wemo Smart Plug with Thread is only a Home App device. Because this is not a WiFi-based device, it will not work with the Wemo App.

      If you require assistance, please contact our hotline here: https://www.belkin.com/us/support-article?articleNum=55022

    Wish this worked with the Wemo app. I have 3 dimmer switches that work with the Wemo app. I use the away mode directly from the app because it does random on and off to make it unpredictable. Gives off a better impression of someone being home. This one is only accessible throw Apple Home and it only has fixed timing schedules. Otherwise it does what its supposed to do.

    Totally my fault for not reading that its only usable on Apple Home Kit, but when did this happen? I have a 3 pack i use around the house that works with Google. Why would they choose to move to the least popular smart home environment ? I guess i will have to return this and swap it out for TP Link?

    Wemo device can be finicky - hard to tell where the issue comes from when there’s a problem. Love them when they work!

    Not able to install Wemo Smart Plug

    I haven't been able to get the two plugs I purchased to work. Additional the instructions enclosed were not helpful.I've tried both the Wemo app and the Apple Home app. I have two other Wemos that I purchased several years ago that I installed without too much trouble. It seems that the other two I installed asked for my wifi ID, but that is not mentioned in the instructions for these I just purchased. I'm going to take them back.

      Hi, Barbara,


      Our apology for the inconvenience that this has caused you. Prior setting up the plugs, you will need a home hub (required for remote access and automations), a HomeKit-compatible Wemo, a WiFi with internet access, and a Home app-compatible device such as an iPad, iPhone, Apple Watch or a macOS computer. Please also try restting the plugs by pressing and holding the power button down for 5 seconds. Continue to hold the power button down until the status light begins to blink white. Once the Wemo WSP100 is successfully factory restored, you may now add the device to the Apple Home app.

      Update us on how it goes by sending us an email at WemoCares@belkin.com with the following information so that our email team can assist you further with this.
      • Serial number of the Wemo WSP100
      • Model and OS version of your Home hub
      • Model and OS version of your phone
      • Your personal information
      • Link to this post for reference

    They should state that this plug only works with Apple Homekit and iOS devices, and that it does NOT work with the Wemo app, Alexa, Google, etc. Very disappointed with this limitation. Probably works great but my home is set up for Alexa, so I will never know.

    Fails to work about one out of ten times even though the hub and smart plug are less than twenty feet apart and in the same room. When that happens, it needs to be manually reset, which solves the problem, but defeats the whole purpose of a smart plug. Very frustrating.

    Wemo and Google are about to drive me insane. Google home keeps dropping these plugs, not to mention, getting them to work with Google home via smart things was a pain. Avoid Wemo if you got google home.
