Smart plugs are the simplest and most affordable way to start automating your home. Plug one in, connect it to WiFi, and suddenly any 'dumb' device — lamps, fans, coffee makers — can be controlled from your phone or voice assistant.
Schedule your coffee maker to start brewing at 6:30 AM. Turn off all your lights with a single voice command. Monitor how much energy your devices consume. Set your holiday lights on a timer. The possibilities are endless and setup takes under 5 minutes.
Matter is the new universal smart home standard. Smart plugs with Matter support work across all ecosystems — Apple HomeKit, Google Home, Amazon Alexa, and Samsung SmartThings — without being locked into one platform.
