Read full description

The Smart Switch Controller interfaces with electronic wireless smart switches where users and specialist can configure and test any Sonoff Smart Switch with the stock firmware. This remedies the shortcomings of the current mechanisms to harness the functionality easily from the stock firmware without having to upload new firmware. This App will also facilitate the changes of the firmware effortlessly. This App does not require cloud access but simply LAN IP connectivity for the smart switch either via its web service or via a mutually connected wifi.
