The product comes with a booklet that gives you step-by-step installation instructions and directions on how to use the product to its fullest. It took my husband around 5 minutes to install (it’s in our hallway) and about 15 minutes to download and install the free app.
We have an older home and our lighting is pitiful throughout our home. Hubby installed our new Wemo Wi-Fi Smart Dimmer in our long hallway. After installing the app he set it up to automatically come on around 10 PM at night and to shut off around 5 AM in the morning…on the dimmer mode. Our hall light comes on and goes off during the set time and gives us just enough light to walk down the hall to go to the kitchen or to use the restroom at night.
During the winter season it gets completely dark outside around 4:45 PM and the sun doesn’t come up until 7:15 AM. It is nice to know that we can easily redo our settings as the seasons change. I like the idea of presetting the hallway light to automatically come on at 5:30 PM right before hubby gets home from work, this way he can see once he gets inside the house.
Another great feature is that he can turn the lights on and off and change the settings via his smartphone when we’re on vacation. I think that is a nifty feature that we will utilize when we’re traveling to make it look like people are at home. This should help to deter robbers and thieves from breaking in!

This would work well in the dimmer portions of any house and it would be nice to be able to easily change the settings.
I just got an Echo with Alexa. This would be fun to work together.
