Description
With the Wemo App, you can control all of your Wemos from anywhere in the world on your iOS devices.
Wemo is the simple way to a smarter home. Download the Wemo app and control your lights, appliances, or a whole room from your couch, coffee shop, or the Caribbean.
HELLO HANDS-FREE CONTROL
Pair your Wemo Mini, Light Switch, Insight, or Switch with Amazon Echo or Google Home and you can control your lights, your appliances, or a whole room without having to lift a finger.
NEVER COME HOME TO A DARK HOUSE
You can schedule your lights to be on during specific hours, or simply sync lights and devices to the sun automatically.
LOOK LIKE YOU’RE HOME EVEN WHEN YOU’RE NOT
Enable the “Away Mode” feature and your lights will turn on and off randomly, making it look like you’re home even when you’re not.

What’s New
Version 2.0.4
In this update we made some improvements to work with the latest version of iOS 17. The minimum supported iOS version is now 13. Wemos should now be found during Wi-Fi or HomeKit setup through the Wemo app. The power button on certain Wemos in the device list should stay put when toggling edit mode. Opening an Insight's power details drawer should no longer cause a crash on iOS 17. Certain offline device icons should no longer cause a crash.
Ratings and Reviews
Not happy
Wemo in the UK does not offer HomeKit. Which has been a pun but fair enough.
But to only make the Wemo app work only if you have a Wemo HomeKit enables set up is ludicrous. I switched routers, and now Wemo fails to work. And you can’t make it happen by adding the devices again.
Given how long it took Bellini to get onboard and they’ve clearly abandoned their UK user base, I have plugs that are no longer smart because of this change.
The app had been fine until this change.
It’s clearly wasting time sticking with Bellini and I look forward to Philips bringing out plugs which I know “will just work”.
Create account password manager still not fixed
When creating an account in the password field there is still no “use suggested strong password” feature that is part of iOS. The email field in the create account flow also doesn’t suggest your email as an autocomplete item. Pretty much every other app requiring an account has this very useful feature, but not Wemo.
It really is pathetic you guys haven’t fixed this yet seeing as the only way to create a Wemo account is on a device (no way to create an account on the web). You really should invest time making the account creation flow more robust, particularly by making it easy to use strong passwords - something that has been part of the iOS developer apis for absolutely ages now.
If you can’t be bothered to do the above, then why not allow the user to create an account using Sign In with Apple, sign in with Facebook / Google, etc?
Not working on IOS 13
Useless on IOS 13. Devices disappear randomly. IOS 13 has been around for a while now and your latest version even says it’s upgraded to work on IOS13. Well it isn’t. Just ordered a few Dlink devices today to try them out. Belkin and Wemo are really letting others lead the way now. No uk support, no new products available here. Maybe the Wemo bridge would help? But I can’t buy one in UK. Last week the motion detectors stopped sending triggers to the switches, I assume you had server issues? It took days to be rectified. I have 10 units which I can’t trust anymore. I will not be buying any more.
