I recently wrote about some WeMo devices I have at my home. Since I moved house last November, I have been using some WeMo devices from Belkin that I have had for a while, but hadn’t used for a fair few years in my last place. These were smart plugs and smart bulbs.
I wrote that Belkin are going to stop supporting WeMo devices from January 2026. So, in the longer term I will need to either remove them or replace them.
I also mentioned that I thought a recent update to the app killed the devices for me, so much so I can’t even access the app, so I can’t control my smart plugs or smart bulbs.
However, then the app did start working again. By this time I had unplugged everything. So I had to spend time reconfiguring and setting up the plugs and light bulbs.
It doesn’t always work, but I eventually managed to get it all working again.
Still going to replace them though, as I don’t have a choice.
