" ... Bought a 4-pack of these as my first foray into smart plugs with my Amazon Echo, and I have to say I'm very satisfied. ... I installed the Meross app on my iPhone, and you then run the app and plug one of these in. ... You name the plug anything you want (though I'd suggest unambiguous names if you're using Alexa) and then the Alexa app sees the plug and you can control it using the Meross app, the Alexa app (which offers more combinations with other devices) or with your voice using your Echo. ... And you can change their names later in the Meross app and Alexa just picks that change up. ... I've currently got two of these as well as three smart bulbs all in one "All the lights" group in Alexa so I can turn everything off with one command, and I can either turn things on one at a time or with other groups I've set up. ... It's pretty cool to tell Alexa to turn off all the lights and then have everything go off at the same time, no matter what happened to be switched on. ... And where this is all connected through Alexa, I can turn my lights (or anything else) on and off from wherever I might be. ... "
" ... "Hey google, turn on the water pump" and it comes to life! ... Saying "Hey google, goodnight" turns everything off! ... "
" ... Only reason i'm giving it a 4 star is because the meross app isn't as easy to use as other wifi plug apps i've used before. ... "
" ... Works fine with Google Home mini ... "
" ... Works great with the app, have short cuts on my phone to turn off my items. ... And I can always tell google to turn it on for me. ... "
