Aoycocr Smart Plug 4-Pack, Bluetooth Wi-Fi Smart Outlet for Smart Home, Remote Control Lights and Devices from Anywhere, No Hub Required, ETL Certified

So Good I Bought More! 2021 Plug Still Going Strong!
I mainly bought these because I grabbed one back in 2021, and it’s been working perfectly. Still doing well to this day. And I wanted to be able to integrate them into the app that I was already using for it. Plugs themselves are nice and small so they don’t take up a lot of space on the outlet like some of the others I have seen, and they have a manual button on the side so you can turn them on and off easily if needed. They integrate into the app very simply, you just hold down the power button, open up the app, and it auto detects them. You can name them, control them from the app, or even set up countdowns, and timers for on and off activity. They also integrate easily into the Google Assistant, you just click a couple buttons, and you’re good to go. Then you can just ask Google to turn on or off whatever you named the plug, or even set up scenes and actions for it. And you can even set it to notify you when an action is taken on the plug so you know if it was successful or not. All in all, I think these are a great bang for your buck, and I like them a lot. Do be aware that they don’t work with my phone’s bluetooth, it’s kind of a misleading title, because you can use the bluetooth connection to SET-UP the WiFi on them, but they do work wonderfully on the WiFi network. Highly recommended!

Works better than the previous generations of smart home devices.
We purchased separately a echo show to communicate with our children. So, since we bounced back into the Amazon Alexa universe, we decided to plunge into all the device options. Previously we used smart home light controls with Lightify. These required the use of an injector hub (my words) to send the control signal over the internet to their server and back again. And the individual bulbs were controlled with signals over the house wiring, at least that was our vague understanding of the way it worked. These seemed to always break, lose the signal, or just not work right especially after a power grid brown out.Fast forward to today’s technology which uses Wi-Fi directly to the device, again the way we understand it with limited technology smarts. WOW, gotta say, it works so much better. Instant on, instant off, no lag, no configuration reset after a power grid failure. SO, it’s our non tech savvy opinion that these work great. Seems a little difficult to setup with some of the other brands we purchased. But the Amazon brand setup was much simpler. If your going to do a smart home, go with this generation (gen 4) and buy enough to make the experience from room to room convenient. Otherwise why bother if the technology makes life more complicated…these make bedtime and wakeup much easier.Our advise, keep the device names simple, one word. Do your own custom name and group the devices together into rooms like “living”, “master”, for living room and master bedroom as an example. Above all enjoy the convenience, no more wall switch routines especially in the dark with Grandkids toys on the floor…ouch!

Disappointed. Need a lot of upgrades and work.
Truly Cheapest ones i found in Amazon and close to 5 star reviews with so many satisfied customers according reviews. So when i was looking for smart plugs, I jumped on these. I purchased all together 16 of them. It has been almost a month. Enough time to be familiar with them. All the plugs were used in different remote locations and for different devices to be turned on off remotely and used with schedules and smart groupings. Many began to fail. For example, One just did not work after a 3 weeks of working and many effort went it to it to figure out why it was not working (Amazon tech service were consulted as well). Final conclusion for this one was that it Just failed and did not work even though it was giving all the right indications that it was working ( switch lights indications, and from smart life app). Other failing issues are, failing Erratically from scheduled times I have set ( not come on of fail to turn of at scheduled off time) and just fail to connect ( dropped from wifi network) and becomes ‘off line’. I would not mined so much if all the failing devices are located near by where i just go and reset them but most of them are off sights and hours away so until I am there, I could not do anything ( not knowing if it is on ? Or off? That is not good). One issue is that it is odd is that three of the smart plugs are using same net work of wifi close to each other and always same two fails and drops from the net work and becomes ‘off line’. So this is situation, out of 16 i got, 5 of them gives me this problem of offline where i just can not control from Smart life app so they become useless till I go to reset ( but fails again in couple of day and must wait till i get there again to reset them) . About the scheduling failure, i am not so much in concern Right Now since as long as i can turn them on or off remotely, i can live with it.So I have 6 that fails of of 16 and these ones i am in process of returning for a full refund before 30 days of return period guide line from Amazon (after that i am to contact directly to manufacture since it was sold, according to amazon, there after).Smart plugs are very convenient if they work. So i am going to try different brands that works better. Once I find them, my intention is to retune all to this manufacturer.I hope I am not the only one having these problems. It can not be. 6 failed smart plugs out of 16 is like over 35% failure rate which means since it comes 4 outlet in a box, at least one should be defective ( from 30 days of trial. Who know how long these switches will last before they all fail…). Other brands i am looking at right now regardless of the prices are gosund ( amazon certified) and wyze ( I have 11 cameras and am happy with) brand. Good luck

Easy to interface to Alexa once you have the correct smart phone app
I bought a four-pack of these outlets, using one for a bug-zapper. It worked well for months until one day Alexa could no longer find it. Next, I bought a house in Florida, where I installed two more of these devices. Once I ran the smart phone App to install the two new devices, the smart phone app observed I also had the bug zapper outlet and the App correctly relayed all three devices to Alexa which then controlled all three outlets correctly.
