Huge security risks and usability issues make these a non-starter.
You can make these work, but there are HUGE security and usability problems.While this product is branded "iSelector", the actual manufacturer is not identified on the product or packaging. If you have trouble, you are invited to email [email protected]. 163.com is written entirely in Chinese, with no English information about the company.To use the device, you must install an app called "Jimvoo Smart" , which is put out by an individual rather than by a company. Are you willing to trust Ping Kwong Yip with complete access to your home Wi-Fi network? By installing this product from an unidentified company and giving access to your network to an unknown individual in China, you are risking your computers and possibly becoming a vector for internet hacks.Using the Jinvoo app, I added a device fairly easily, but it was given a name in Chinese. After adding three devices and giving them English names, I tried to group then to control them together. But, the app could not properly create a group. When editing group members, only two of the three devices would be listed as available to be grouped. That is when I realized that there is absolutely no support for this product.I did not get around to making work with Alexa, because the security problems alone prevent me from keeping the devices.Amazon should NOT be selling devices which need unfettered access to home Wi-Fi network unless they are backed by a reputable organization with a US presence.

This is a Chinese spying product
This company will not let you register and use the product unless you supply a location.All I can say is that in my opinion it is a Chinese government spying operation.I have uninstalled the app and will be contacting Amazon for my money back as I do not want to support Chinese spying activities.

Great
I decided to buy these because I thought it was me that I could be able to control these away from home. They are lightweight and easy to plug in anywhere. I'm very pleased with my plugs they are great. I would recommend these if you are searching for the right plugs for your home to control while away.

It works good and hooked up to my Alexa
It works good and hooked up to my Alexa. I have my living room lamp hooked up to it and I also have it hooked up to my son room lamp. So it makes it easy to just turn on or off the light with the sound of my voice.

Works as it should
I now own six of these, they work as intended. Easy to set up, app is simple to use, and they do exactly what they're supposed to do. Only complaint is that they do disconnect periodically and need to be reconnected. Other than that, very happy with the product.

Easy to setup and use
Easy to setup! Would be 5 stars if not for the glitchy app. It shows things on when they aren’t and vis a versa!

Buyer should be aware of technical problems
If you turn it on or off manually while it is set to run automatically when in timer mode, the socket will have to be reset. Also, there is no provision for switching between daylight savings time and standard time. It has to be reset. Technical support is very lacking.

Jinvoo Smart App no longer runs in ios 13
The product and app worked well. Then ios 13 came out and the app no longer functions. It crashes immediately when you try to open it. Find another product that does not use Jinvoo Smart app.
