Collection: SMART WIFI PLUGS & ACCESSORIES
What Are WiFi Smart Plugs?
The WiFi Smart Plug is an intelligent device that can be attached to any socket and smarten up even the most basic appliance. If you’re looking for an easy and straightforward way to automate your household, the WiFi Smart Plug is a must-have.
Whether it be revving up the coffee machine from your bed, switching your lamps on and off, or keeping your family’s TV usage in check, once plugged into an outlet, you can remotely control whatever device the Smart Plug is connected to.
Take control of your daily habits with ease and have some fun with it, too!
What makes the BAZZ WiFi Smart Plug so innovative is its ability to interact with the appliances you already have. You’re simply transforming your existing outlet into a smart one!
How Smart Plugs Work as Home Automation
Getting the best out of your Smart Plug is quick and easy; connect the Smart Plug to one of your outlets and plug in a household appliance. Simple!
From here, you will be able to control the connected appliance’s power supply using commands sent from the BAZZ app. If you have a smart home assistant (Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant), you can instruct your Smart Plug using voice commands.
Here are just some of the many uses of your Smart Plug:
- Turn on your coffee pot from your bed.
- Control your AC unit or heater before you arrive home.
- Turn on lamps while you’re away from home to deter intruders.
- Turn off the hair straighteners you accidentally left on from your workplace.
How to Use Smart Plug with Amazon Alexa
Connecting your smart devices with Alexa is an easy task.

- Tap ‘Devices’ on the bottom right of the screen.

Factors to Consider Before Buying Smart Plug & Accessories
1. Voice Assistant Compatibility
If you want to incorporate a Smart Plug with your existing smart home assistant, make sure it is compatible. Not all Smart Plugs work with Alexa and Google Assistant, so double-check the spec so that you can get the most out of it.
2. App Control
The main reason people buy Smart Plugs is for the ability to control the device through a smartphone app. This convenient function allows users to control anything plugged into the Smart Plug from anywhere in the world.
3. Energy Monitoring
Certain Smart Plugs can monitor the energy consumption of your devices, helping to curb energy costs. Through the partnering app, you can see how much energy your appliances are using.
4. Can It Schedule in Advance?
Most Smart Plugs can create schedules that automatically turn devices on or off at certain times. With this feature, you can create a schedule to turn on your coffee pot at 8 am or start your air conditioning in time for your return from work. This is a standard feature, but you should make sure your Smart Plug has the option for extra convenience.
