does not wirk with alexa

does not work with alexa or google

No Longer Supported

While this app/product tended to have its bugs, it was mostly working, until it wasn’t. The developers no longer update the app and have rendered the interface useless to interact with the plugs. The plugs themselves still work and do still use any old programming/timers previously set in them, but the app will only function on an older outdated/unsupported Apple device, if you still had one. Unfortunate for those of us who invested into multiple plugs, as many of us do.

Broken

Doesn’t seem to work any more.

App crashes

Worked fine when I first brought the plugs but now the app crashes when you select the plug you want to configure. Another example of a company that abandons their product after being paid.

Stealing clipboard data

Be careful with this app. It is getting a copy of your clipboard for no reason when you run the app. Good way to collect usernames/passwords etc. disappointing.
