Ampai Apple HomeKit Smart Plugs 4 Pack - Energy Monitoring, Voice Control, Timer - Mini Size Wi-Fi Socket for Siri, Alexa & Google Home - 10A, 2.4Ghz Wi-Fi Only

The media could not be loaded.  I got the 4 pack. They were the cheapest Apple HomeKit compatible ones and I don’t have a Homebridge set up to control non-HomeKit devices with Apple Home, so I figured I’d give these a try.When I initially tried to set up the first one, I tried the NFC feature. Which was handy because the QR code was facing toward the floor (my outlets are sideways). But I had to reset the device twice to get Apple Home to connect to it.Once it was connected, I was disappointed at just how slow it is to respond to switching the outlet on and off. See the attached video for what I mean. My Belkin Wemo Smart Plug and iHome Smart Plug all responded nearly instantly, whereas the Aimore Smart Plug lagged behind by about a second, sometimes a little less.Otherwise, despite the slowness and difficulty setting up, it works as intended. We shall see how long it keeps working.

They work great. I had a hard time getting everything set up to work. It might just be me.

I really wanted to give this a 5 star rating.My fiancé and I bought these to add to our Apple HomeKit so we could keep our ACs running while away for an extended period of time - from 800 miles away. We live on the 3rd floor of an apartment building, and it can get pretty toasty up here in the summer time. Out of all the smart plugs I searched, these had the best reviews, so I ordered a two pack. Last summer, we were gone for a week and came home to sentimental sports memorabilia fallen off the wall and shattered on the floor - because we didn’t leave the ACs on all week. So we decided to try using our Apple Home to monitor the temps & have the ACs on automation when it hit a certain temp in the apartment.Upon arriving home after 3 weeks away, one of our ACs had stopped working, and thought we had to go out and get a new unit. We even plugged a fan it into the smart plug, only to find out it wouldn’t turn on. The smart plug was on, lit up blue, and in the Home app said the it was on.After we unplugged the smart plug from the wall & plugged the AC and fan into the wall… it turned on no problem. So basically - one out of the 2 smart plugs glitched after 3 weeks.How disappointing. 3 weeks of use and ownership. And it wasn’t used all day, every day either. Maybe a few hours a day until the apartment (650 sq ft) cooled off. That was it. I really had high hopes, so we are just waiting for the other plug to do the same thing at this rate.And there is no sign of wear and tear, it looks brand new.

The best smart switches that I have ever used. Very impressive!Easy to pair with google assistant and Homekit. The API to the software is very easy to me.The biggest surprise to me is that it is very small. Two smart switches could be both installed in one typical two plug receptacles. Extremely helpful compared to other products. I would definitely recommend to my friends.Shipping is also very fast and reliable.

These outlets do work well and connect to home kit without too much issue. The one thing I will say is the build quality on them isn't the highest. They feel pretty cheap when you plug something in you can definitely feel the plastic flex. I do have smart outlets by other brands that don't seem to have this issue but for the price and for the home kit compatibility these are a great alternative. They are really small which is nice you can tuck them away and they don't block everything around them like some others do.

It's been working great with my Alexa Echo's but the setup was a little messy. They currently have it rigged to go through an Alexa Skill because Alexa doesn't officially have this brand listed for compatibility. When first setting up I received a 404 error with the first setup option and the second option appeared a little confusing until I watched the video the app links to. Then it was all a breeze. I've noticed in the past Alexa Skills disappearing for no reason, so it does make me concerned about pairing it in the future or losing the ability for the socket to function if the Alexa Skill goes missing. Aside from that it's been working great to turn on my Livingroom Lights with a voice command.

Well, I have been struggling with these devices for a couple weeks. I am using them with Apple Home app (HomeKit). Set up was fairly easy, although the instructions might not get you thru it, you can always watch a YouTube video. I got the switch to show up in my Home App. I can turn it off/on manually using the App. But so far, I have not been able to program it to function automatically. I don't know it the issue is a device issue or a Home issue, but the option to automate this does not show up in Home. I have watch a ton of videos on these types of devices, and I know how the process is supposed to work. So for now it is more electro-junk. Seems reasonable well-built.

These plugs do exactly what they are supposed to do, the setup was a breeze and they connected to Alexa perfectly.I also like the fact that they are smaller than most and a great bargain for the price point.
