Customers are mixed about the performance of the electronic switch. Some mention that it works great, the app works well, and the basic functionality is helpful.

"...The interface with my wall switches felt solid and the design not all that intrusive, and the casings felt sturdy enough to take a bit of a beating...." Read more

"...The Timers don't seem to work correctly - it'll turn on but never turns off for the set time.Application could use some improvements." Read more

"...-Timer feature works great, no issues with it.- Reported issue of losing connection with app isn't really an issue for me...." Read more

154 customers mention18 positive136 negative

Customers have issues with the connectivity of the electronic switch. They mention that the Bluetooth connection is too short range, and it doesn't connect to smart devices like Alexa. The app works well, but the lack of WiFi integration or Google integration without other products is a major downside. The Bluetooth range is quite minimal, and the switch does not directly connect to Amazon Echo Dot or Google Home, despite its claim that it could.

"...you want to remotely turn off and on a switch because the bluetooth range is fairly short and you basicly need to be in the same room which kind of..." Read more

"...There's a little noise when the switch operates.Bluetooth range is limiting if you're using a phone to operate the switch...." Read more

"...Very easy to set up and use. The big missing piece is echo integration...." Read more

"...Also, there is some misinformation on compatibility with Alexa. Alexa is NOT supported (I believe Google Home is) - this is a pretty big bummer, but..." Read more

Great option for quick wall switch automation
4 Stars
Great option for quick wall switch automation
I've had this now for over a month without any major issues. It works as advertised on my flat rocker type wall switches. As others have stated the motor sound for the brief moment a switch action happens is noticeable. But for the cost and install simplicity of this unit I don't think it's a significant issue.With my iOS devices the app will occasionally not detect my wall switches. The quick fix I've found is to swipe away the switchmate app to fully close it and then reopen it. It has reconnected to my switch right away every time.Another minor issue I overcame was when trying to set up a switch on multiple mobile devises. Doing this won't work unless the switch name and type options are set identically on all mobile devices when adding it in the app. If this isn't done you probably will get the annoying "this switch has been reset by another device.." connection error. I've added a switch to 3 iOS devises this way.
Thank you for your feedback
