Bluetooth Smart Plug

I have read several reviews talking about how difficult these are to pair with the Nooie app. I had that difficulty on my first try, but then noticed a trick that worked every time for all 4 outlets.First, things to know. I'm using a google mesh network that is a hybrid 5GHz/2.4GHz system. Google does NOT allow me to select which one is being used, but these Nooie plugs found the 2.4GHz just fine (while my phone was connected to 5GHz).I downloaded the Nooie app, and got to the section to add a plug (easy enough to find in the app). The app asks if the white light on the plug is blinking. Of course, its not. You have to hold the power button on the plug for 5 seconds to "reset" it, and then it will start blinking. It blinks for maybe 10 or 15 seconds, then stops. Back to the app, click the "plug is blinking" button (cant remember exact words), and it will start a countdown timer for 90 seconds while it tries to connect, and it will also ask for your wifi network name and password. You enter this info, and wait the 90 seconds and. . . NOTHING, no connection. Well, remember how I said the light on the plug only blinks for 10 or 15 seconds? You MUST enter your wifi network name and password quickly, while the white light on the plug is STILL blinking. If you do this, then the 90 second count down timer in the app will count for about 30 seconds or so, and then connect. I figured this out on my 2nd try (I mean, when a light stops blinking after 10 seconds, it's suspicious), and they all paired fine after that.Yes, this design is ridiculous! Why does the plug only blink for 10 seconds, while the app makes you think you have 90 seconds? I have no idea, but basically, once the plug stops blinking, I think it's done broadcasting its signal and becomes undiscoverable. As long as you get your info into the app while the plug is still broadcasting, it connects perfectly. Actually, I got a notification each time from my Google Home app immediately when they paired ("a new device has joined your network"), even though the Nooie app took about 20 more seconds to tell me they successfully paired.Once paired, the Nooie app lets you name the plug, and it's easy enough to navigate through the app and set up timers, manually turn the plugs on and off, etc. My Google wifi recognized them all as a device called "TY-WR", all the same name but with their unique MAC addresses. But in the Nooie app, its super easy to give them better names, etc.Once you know that you only have 10 seconds to pair them, instead of the 90 seconds the app leads you to believe, these all pair very easily. I had zero problems, and I'm on a hybrid 5GHz/2.4GHz network that doesn't let me choose. The plug just showed up in the app right on the 2.4GHz signal.Final Rating: 5 stars for the product --- IF you know how to pair them!

I felt compelled to write this to refute some of the earlier events. I encountered none of the bugs or inconveniences I read about.- I took quite a bit longer than 90 seconds to pair at least the first two I set up. No problem at all. The light wasn't blinking, but pairing worked fine.- I don't recall the exact sequence, but it is perfectly natural and easy to set the name of each outlet in Google Home.- I got them because we have too many Christmas lights, and these 4 outlet controls cost about the same as one traditional timer. So I replaced all the old ones and set them up in a Google Home "room" called Christmas. Now I can say "OK Google, turn on the outlets in Christmas"- You make them timers by creating a Routine that runs at a set time, with an action like "turn on the outlets in Christmas". Then you can add a voice trigger to that routine, like "Christmas on". Then you can manually operate the controls with "OK Google, Christmas on"- You'll want to set Google Home to run all the Routines on a fixed device, like a Nest Mini or a Nest Hub not on your phone.- As far as I can tell, the instructions to use the Nooie app on Android are correct. The rub comes when you set up a new outlet, and you have to follow the instruction to select the device type "Nooie Home" rather than "Nooie". I don't understand how this all works, so I can't say whether this is weird or normal -- you only need to do it once per outlet.I'll definitely be getting more of these rather than any traditional timer!

After shutting down the 5 Ghz router side, these FINALLY connected at 2.4 Ghz but had to do manually (i.e., not automatic connecting). After connecting the first Nooie plug in about one hour, the others connected fine and in much less install time (about 3 minutes each). Small size is great, leaving the other plug for other use. Have to be careful when unplugging not to hold down the re-set button on the plug's side. Used the Nooie app, which is a bit clunky but OK when getting use to it. Lot's of difficulty when meshing with Alexa (Dot Gen 3), but once it connects Nooie ---> Alexa it is awesome! BE SURE TO CONNECT USING NOOIE HOME, not just Nooie. We control 8 plugs in two groups, all controlling lights. I would definitely buy these again.

I used this product to put my bedside lamp and some dim interior lighting on schedules because I have no self-control or concept of time and I’m attempting to establish better routines for myself because #helth. Also, the plugs for the string lights were difficult to access to plug and unplug when I wanted them on or off. Overall, good value for price. However, I found setup to be difficult and could only connect one of the three that I used onto my wi-fi. The other two had to be connected via an alternate method, which may explain why they seem to be anywhere between 15min to an hour off on their schedule. Kinda defeats the purpose for which they were purchased, but I just go and manually turn on/off on app. Might mess around a bit more and see if I can remedy this. As far as Alexa pairing goes, I can’t speak for this since I do not own any Alexa devices. The remote control from the app is a bit clunky to access. I wish there were a more centralized location to control all devices as soon as you opened the app instead of having to navigate to the right tab. But, I’m sure this will be improved in future iterations of the app, and the schedule issue might be resolved with some more troubleshooting on my end. Overall a good value for price.

These are exactly what I needed. Unfortunately one of them did not work but I have seeds starting under grow lights and on heat mats and am using the plugs for timing those so I don't want to have my seedlings cold and dark while I mess with a return just because of one plug. Other than the one plug not working these are great and I still would probably purchase again. Just check to make sure they all work before you're using them for something you won't want to interrupt for a return.

Solo he probado 1 de 4, hasta el momento todo muy bien. Es pequeño y práctico, he tenido otros que son redondos y no puedes poner 2 juntos, pero con estos no existe ese problema.Fácil instalación y es compatible con el app Smart Life

La verdad que me han gustado mucho, son fáciles de enlazar y cumplen por completo su función, el precio es algo que los hace competir mucho más, el plástico es de muy buena calidad, el equipo de soporte a cliente es lo mejor, tuve una duda, contacte y supieron resolverme de forma rápida, pocos servicios te responden de forma personalizada

very easy set up, only took me less than 5mins. will buy again if I need more. no problem to connect to my router and google home.1 year later : not working anymore, very disappointed. Plug still show paired however no power went thru. Junk!

Muy buen producto, se ve de buena calidad incluso mejor que otros de mayor precio, es fácil de configurar. Hasta el momento funcionan muy bien configurados con Alexa o con la app del fabricante

El diseño es bonito, me gustó porque este a diferencia de los redondos no tapa el otro contacto, si no que caben dos juntos, al momento de querer usarlo la app que me indica en el instructivo no funcionó, pero con una app de terceros (la que uso en mis focos inteligentes) creo que se llama Home funcionaron a la perfección.
