Review on 🔌 Google Control Avatar Controls for Convenient Outlet Access by Will Anderson

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Easy to use but scheduling and connectivity are unreliable

I have a lot of smart devices and bought this set of four smart sockets for extra home security by turning the lights on and off to give the impression to awaken that someone has a house. They worked fine for about a month, but now the app reports internet access problems or no response almost every day. I updated the app and devices. I've reset all of them and then reprogrammed them, but still having problems. They use the Smart Life app and are the only smart devices they use. I also have smart devices running the eWeLink and SmartThings apps that work perfectly. I can't tell if the problem is in the app or in the devices. At the moment they are only used in non-critical applications and will be removed soon if the bugs persist.

Pros
  • Group Control and Family Sharing
Cons
  • Socket required
