Wemo timer software for mac update#
Thankfully, starting today, Wemo begins rolling out a software update for its Wemo Mini Smart Plug that makes it work with Apple HomeKit - no bridge needed! Unfortunately, the prior generation Wemo Smart Plug (not 'mini') will not get this update.
The problem? That bridge can cost $30 or more - ugh, who wants to pay extra? Recently, Wemo released a special bridge dongle that made its devices compatible with HomeKit - Apple's smart home solution. Thanks to Alexa support, I can control my lighting by voice too! I can say 'Alexa, turn on the living room lamp,' and like magic, it does! For instance, mine are connected to lamps, so using my phone or tablet, I can easily turn on/off the lights using the Wemo app - even remotely. If you aren't familiar, these are devices that plug into a power outlet. One of my favorite smart home devices, however, are my Wemo Mini Smart Plugs. I have a couple of Echo Dot voice assistants, a Nest smart thermostat, several Wi-Fi security cameras, and I am even in the process of testing a smart sprinkler from Rachio. This probably won't surprise you, but I am a huge 'smart home' proponent. We also boast an active community focused on purchasing decisions and technical aspects of the iPhone, iPod, iPad, and Mac platforms. MacRumors attracts a broad audience of both consumers and professionals interested in the latest technologies and products. With the Wemo Bridge, you can use the Apple Home app to easily set automatic schedules for lights and appliances connected to your Wemo smart plugs and light switches. I’ve used the other wemo-emulation code for the esp8266 that you mention, but I like the library approach used here. 202 thoughts on “ Emulate a WeMo device with ESP8266 ” Pingback: “Alexa, Make My ESP8266 Do Something”| Hackaday.
