AutomationManager for IoT for Android
Connected my wemo in Delaware, came back to Maryland, it's logging on Google drive, shows up in my list as red, and I can't control it. Thought I would be able to control it from Maryland but can't. Would like a refund.
If you are even thinking of starting down the nightmare road with wemos and Belkin, spend a little more on this app and Mike will get you out of a bring. Fantastic app, lots of possibilities for iot expansion and support
Update, I've used this app for years and never had to reconfigure it, the many rules I set up years ago just kept working, through several versions of Android and several routers, it just works and you don't have to think about it. Thanks! :)
The brand apps have caught up in dependability and features, at least for me Can't see much value added. Uninstalled.
Just when I thought it couldn't possibly get any better, Mike pulls even more rabbits out of the hat! Thanks for version 9.2.0, Mike. With AutomationManager for IoT my WeMos never let me down!
Great solution and fantastic support from Mike. Don't bin your WEMO hardware you can get it to work reliably with this app.
Far more reliable than the official app. Took a while to set up, but I only use the official app for updates and adding devices now. Great work!
This is the only app that really works with WeMo devices, don't waste time on Belkin's app use this one!
This is the fix for all the frustrations of the WEMO app rules. This has faster response than the WEMO app, more reliable, more functionality. This is the fix and the extension for the WEMO app. It also has great support. It takes some reading to understand it but it is worth it.
What a fantastic app. 5 stars. I've set this up on a Windows server and it works well. Is there a way to adjust lamp brightness at all?
This 3rd party WeMo application works fantastic. Compared to the official Belkin software, this app is more responsive, lightweight, reliable, smooth and quick. Continuing onward, I'm looking forward to using this application instead of the Belkin one. The price of this application is more than reasonable considering what you get. The developer Mike is friendly, helpful, knowledgeable and provides excellent support. I’m very impressed with both the application and the support provided. In summary I highly value this app and can't say enough good things about it. I hope when Belkin releases their WeMo dimmer light switches this spring, the developer is able to support them.
Just been playing with it a few minutes and seems to be great. I didn't notice in the description that custom images were an option, very happy to see that they are!
A veritable Swiss Army Knife of functionality for the wemo hardware... the deluxe model with all the tools. And then there is the support - awesome.
I was in the process of looking for another remote plug device when I came across this app. Belkin's crappy app made wemos barely usable. With this app the wemo devices can be fully utilized to their potential. I strongly recommend this app if you have at least one wemo of any kind. Edit: The developer is very responsive and informative. If something isn't working for you, it's not the app... Just saying...
Installed this app last night before leaving on vacation. Worked at home but as soon as I got to the airport it throws a "socket exception" error. I want a refund! $8.99 down the drain!
not working
This is how the belkin app should be? I can't believe a third party app blows the official one out of the water. I can actually use one of my old android phones as a server which is much more responsive.
Intuitive and very easy to setup. Allows you to manage your wemo devices apart from the official wemo app and avoids giving belkin access to your home. Developer very responsive to questions.
This completely blows the Belkin app out of the water. It recognises devices that the native app can't see and the tasker integration makes it so useful. The widgets are just brilliant. Love it.
So much better than stock for the widgets alone!
Immensely powerful and stable, if not the easiest to use. Via integration with Tasker and Mike's DSC Server app, I have the kitchen light coming on automatically when the back door is opened if the alarm is set and it's nighttime. Try doing that with Belkin's app. (Actually don't try. Really.) P.S. Thanks for the sunrise/sunset intents, otherwise I'd have been looking for extra Tasker plugins.
this is too complicated and there is too many ways to do it. I don't understand how to use it. please help?
This has a far better rules engine, and data resolution than the Wemo app. Fantastic support as well. Very happy with this app.
Much better than the belkin app!
MikeP has introduced grouped widgets -An astonishing innovation along with lots of new triggers and actions in the rules . -Thanks, Mike! All this just as Belkin pulls the plug on its's loyal JellyBean users. Am I worried? No. Thanks to Mike's Automation Manager AKA Wemo Manager, we can all abandon the lumbering Belkin WeMo app!
Mike has made a truly wonderful app which puts the folks at Belkin to shame. No more bothering with clunky IFTTT routines which take forever to process. Love the multiple conditional rules as well! Could not be happier with this product. Well worth the investment. Fantastic support from the developer as well, even before I purchased the app.
Outstanding app! If you have bought into a significant portion of the Belkin WeMo ecosystem, as I have, you will find this app indispensable. The Automation Manager for WeMo is comprehensive and complete in all aspects of its use, particularly in creating rules of operation for your various devices. It offers a level of control well beyond the stock Belkin WeMo app and you will not be disappointed. As well, the developer offers excellent support and immediately returns any email inquiry you may have. With the companion app WeMo LEDs, both apps together provide you with easy and complete oversight and control of all your devices.
What a fantastic app. 5 stars. I would like one little extra feature though. The ability to create shortcut icon for a device - not a widget. I currently have a Wemo Maker hooked up to my garage. The majority of car dock UI apps don't support widgets but they do support adding shortcuts and apps. I'd love to be able to open the garage door from my phone screen as I pull into my driveway.
Any chance adding option to export rules and use them after the app is reinstalled?
So much better than the WeMo app and the developer is super helpful and quick to respond.
Functional and well executed App and with the Tasker integration a powerful tool for your WeMo devices !
not working
Seriously, you've spent at least AU$100 for your Basic Wemo (probably a lot more) MikeP's apps take things to the next level. Support is amazing, the apps do exactly what they say. Easily worth many times the asking price.
This app is exactly what I needed. I've always wanted to cut out the middle man and somehow control my light switches locally, and this app does just that. I happen to have an old phone lying around so it's used as my WeMo server.
I used this so that I could connect an Amazon Echo dot to my belkin wemo light bulbs. The out of the box Echo integration only works with belkin light switches. With this I was able to easily setup a REST interface for each light (and groups), and then connect this to ArmZilla (software philips hue bridge). Now my lights work natively with my Echo!.. Happy days, thanks MikeP!
Good work
Is it worth the money? Yes
Awesome app... I wish it could completely replace Wemo.
Very good!
