App Is Junk

Terrible. No longer works-Sad because it’s a great power strip. APC should enter the year 2023.

Not so Smart Outlet

When it’s connected and working it works great. But mine has lost connection at least 2-4 times a year for the last 4 years I’ve owned it. Which does not sound like a big deal, until you realize I have it connected to my aquarium! Now I have to reset all the outlet schedules, and reconnect it to the wi-fi, and hope it has not been off too long to affect anything vital in the tank. I loved the size of this device and the programmable individual outlets, I’ve gotten some Kasa devices. MUCH more reliable as far as not loosing internet connection. AND I can change any of my device settings from anywhere, the APC is local control only.

Stopped working with Amazon devices & Alexa app

Is this app being supported anymore by APC!?!

When I first got two power strips a couple years ago, they integrated fine with Amazon Firecube, Eco & Alexa app. A couple months ago, these devices couldn’t find them any more because “they have stopped communicating with the server”.

I can still control them through the APC app but I would like to control them through the Alexa app just like was doing along with my other smart plugs & light bulbs.

Short of uninstalling all the APC plugs, deleting the app & reinstalling everything, there doesn’t seem to be any easier potential fix.

BTW, the Alexa app doesn’t seem to list the APC Home app &/or plugs anymore. If I uninstall them, will I even be able to reload them!?!
