CUSTOMER NOTICE

Merry Christmas & Happy New Year
WIFIPLUG 1, WIFIPLUG 2, WIFIPLUG MINI, WIFIPLUG POWER, and the brand new WIFIPLUG HOME will all be controlled from the spanking new app – WIFIPLUG
“Wait, why do I care?” Well we are removing WIFIPLUG1 WIFIPLUG2 WIFIPLUG GLASS and WIFIUPLUG POWER from all app stores, so you really need to get on board otherwise you will be left behind on outdated versions.
The New App will have IFTTT & ALEXA ready to go- so if you have older plugs then today is your lucky day!
In Q4 of 2016 we attended:
Also, if you missed our Black Friday Deals this weekend then don’t worry! Cyber Monday deals are running all day today and will expire at midnight!
All the best,

We were fully aware of the issues some of you were having and we would like to thank you greatly for being patient with us while we got this sorted.
As of right now, the new firmware update is rolling out to every WIFIPLUG and it contains some pretty exciting features:
Automatic reboot: In the event that your WIFIPLUG goes offline, the WIFIPLUG will reboot itself and reconnet back to the app without you even noticing it had gone in the first place!
Stability increase: We have heard that it does sometimes take quite a few seconds for the WIFIPLUG to respond to the action of switching it on remotely so we have managed to increase the stability of the plug to make it faster and therefore better!
WIFIPLUG resurrection: The new firmware update doesn’t just fix performance bugs and increase stability but it has also managed to bring previously deemed faulty plugs back to life and working order!
That’s not all, the new firmware update is optimised ready for the brand new WIFIPLUG POWER app so that your WIFIPLUG’s and the new app will work hand-in-hand.
To apply the new update, make sure that the plug is currently online in the WIFIPLUG POWER app and currently transmitting power through it. Once this has done press the plug icon (blue or green by default) to the left of the plug in the app and simply press “Update Firmware”. The process usually takes around 1-2 minutes and the plug will click and restart once it has successfully completed. Your plugs will automatically reconnect as soon as possible and will now be running the new and updated WIFIPLUG firmware.
WARNING: New firmware update not compatible with WIFIPLUG2, works only with WIFIPLUG POWER and WIFIPLUG MINI.
As always, we thank you greatly for your support, feedback and any suggestions, improvements or even general ideas are always appreciated!

We know we know, it’s not quite Siri but we thought you might like to know we have enabled a pretty easy hack for those of you who use Amazon. All you need is an Amazon account or a Dot, Alexa or Echo app.
Simply sign into Amazon, create the rule on IFTTT and bingo – You can command Alexa to turn ON/OFF your WIFIPLUG.
Simple and customisable quotes such as:
* “Trigger, turn on my coffee machine”
* “Trigger, turn off the living room lamp”

Take a look at some of the practical uses for the GLASS and make your next smart purchase a GLASS purchase.
Security: Leaving your house unattended at night? Worried about being burgled while you’re away? The GLASS has you covered! Create up to 99 timers with the GLASS so that you can have your overhead lights switch on or off at intervals through the night so that the common thief will think twice and look elsewhere. And with IFTTT functionality coming soon, setup your GLASS with other smart home appliances to keep your house and your belongings safe!
By the way, did you know that 1 Million household burglaries were reported in 2015, with over 50% of them being opportunistic thieves. Eliminate the possibility of this happening to you with the GLASS wifi light switch!
Convenience: Having a lazy day? Feeling ill? With the GLASS you can carry on your lazy day or keep up the recovery without having to get up to go to the switch. Simply load the GLASS app up on your smartphone or tablet and with the click of a button, voila, you can alter the state of your overhead lights just like that!
Style: If you’re the tech savvy person that has all the latest and greatest gadgets and gizmo’s that all work together to make your home look as if you live in Google’s headquarters then the GLASS is right up your alley. With its unique, simple yet effective design you’ll stand out from the crowd with your new touch sensitive light switches. Then astonish your friends and family when you take it even further and switch your lights on when you’re nowhere near the switch!
These are just some of the endless possibilities of the GLASS. Make it yours with the link below!

For the last couple of weeks, we have been testing a our latest firmware update for the WIFIPLUG’s to steady performance, increase stability and automatically put them back online in the unlikely event that they disconnect.
The testing update period is due to close this week (27.05.16) and the update will be rolling out to you shortly afterwards.
Also in development is a new update for the WIFIPLUG POWER app. We are fully aware of the little bugs and glitches in the current WIFIPLUG POWER app so we have re-built the app from the ground up. The new updated app looks better in every aspect, is more fluid and minimises the chance of anything going wrong during the setup process of the WIFIPLUG’s and beyond.
For those of you that are still awaiting the shipping of your GLASS order please be assured that we still have your order and we will be shipping it as soon as we receive the next batch of GLASS units. Due to a supply issue, the batch has been delayed and we sincerely apologise for the wait but we thank you greatly for your patience. We will be shipping the remaining GLASS orders as soon as we receive the next batch which is due to arrive Mid May.
