The Switchmate app allows you to interact with our full suite of Switchmate Devices!

Connect, Configure & Control Switchmate, SWMbright/Slim, SWMpower, Zip, Cube Camera, and our future devices all in one place. Setup, toggling, setting preferences like timers and Welcome Home, and more!

We are currently hard at work on a MAJOR ground-up rebuild (v4.0) and would love to hear your feedback, we're listening!

Features:

- Control your existing switches or power ports

- Timers: automatically turn your switches or plugs on/off at preset times

- Welcome Home: automatically turn on switches or plugs of your choosing when you get home

- View, Record, and Manage your Cube IP Camera

- Remote Control from anywhere with a Bridge Device (Power or Zip)

- Full Alexa Integration: "SimplySmart Home by Switchmate" Skill (Requires Power or Zip bridge) "Alexa, turn on my porch light"

- Full Google Home, Home Control Integration: "SimplySmart Home by Switchmate" Action under GH Home Control (Requires Power or Zip bridge) "Hey Google, turn on my living room fan"

- Google Assistant Integration: "Switchmate" action under Google Assistant Explore - Separate from our primary GH integration above we offer limited GH/GA functionality for users without a Power or Zip device! "Hey Google, talk to Switchmate"

- Updates: get over the air firmware updates for your Switchmate device(s) to make sure you have the latest/greatest

- Voice Control: Use the mic icon in the app to control your lights with your voice, see below for more details!

Some of the Features we're working on:

- Widgets: Add them to your Home Screen so you don't have to open the app to toggle switches or use voice commands!

- Grouping: Create & control groups of devices together.

- Timeout: Automatically turn off a switch after X amount of time!

- Android Wear: Because who doesn't want to use their watch to do all this?

- API & Tasker/IFTTT Plugins: Per your requests, we're still in the early planning stages on this one but we're working on it!

Voice Control Feature:

You can click the Microphone icon in the app and simply say your command - voice activation tries to first match by the switch name that shows in your list of devices (and you can change under Device Settings), but if it can't find that it will try to match to the location you selected when you first setup your Switchmate(s). And you can even use "all" to control all switches within range! Here are some examples:

"Turn Kenny's Room light off"

"Turn on my living room lights"

"Turn all my lights off"

"Bedroom on"

Permissions:

- Location Permissions are unfortunately required for BLE by Android - we're huge on privacy and unfortunately there is no way around not requiring Location to be enabled on Android because we cannot scan for BLE devices without it, and that is why the app will not function without it. Beyond that we do use location data only when Welcome Home is enabled so we can tell you're nearing home in order to optimize battery (so we're not looking for Switchmates all the time!). This data is often cached from other apps and we simply grab that data so in most cases we aren't making new location checks - and that data is NEVER transmitted off your phone/to us at all.

- Background Service & Waking your device permissions are also used for Welcome Home so we can ping your Switchmate to let it know you're home without the app needing to be open.

- Internet permissions are used for checking for firmware updates & sending us crash reports (via Google Crashlytics)

- Bluetooth & WiFi permissions are required for communicating with your Switchmate devices.

Requirements:

- Switchmate Device(s) of course!

- Android 4.4.4+ is required so we can use Bluetooth Low Energy in order to save a lot of battery!

Switchmate devices are currently only sold in the US and Canada

特征：

- 控制现有交换机或电源端口

- 定时器：在预设时间自动打开/关闭开关或插头

- 欢迎回家：回家后自动打开您选择的开关或插头

- 查看，记录和管理您的多维数据集IP摄像机

- 使用桥接设备（电源或Zip）随时随地进行远程控制

- 完整的Alexa集成：“Switchmate的SimplySmart Home”技能（需要电源或Zip桥）“Alexa，打开我的门廊灯”

- 完整的Google Home，家庭控制集成：“SimplySmart Home by Switchmate”GH家庭控制下的行动（需要电源或Zip桥）“嘿谷歌，打开我的客厅风扇”

- Google智能助理集成：Google智能助理探索下的“Switchmate”操作 - 与我们的主要GH集成分开，我们为没有Power或Zip设备的用户提供有限的GH / GA功能！ “嘿谷歌，与Switchmate交谈”

- 更新：获取您的Switchmate设备的无线固件更新，以确保您拥有最新/最好的

- 语音控制：使用应用程序中的麦克风图标用您的声音控制您的灯光，请参阅下面的详细信息！

我们正在开发的一些功能：

- 小部件：将它们添加到主屏幕，这样您就不必打开应用程序来切换开关或使用语音命令！

- 分组：一起创建和控制设备组。

- 超时：在X时间后自动关闭开关！

- Android Wear：因为谁不想用手表来做这一切？

- API和Tasker / IFTTT插件：根据您的要求，我们仍然处于这个阶段的早期规划阶段，但我们正在努力！

语音控制功能：

您可以单击应用程序中的“麦克风”图标，然后简单地说出您的命令 - 语音激活尝试首先匹配设备列表中显示的交换机名称（您可以在“设备设置”下更改），但如果找不到它会尝试匹配您第一次设置Switchmate时选择的位置。您甚至可以使用“all”来控制范围内的所有开关！这里有些例子：

“关掉肯尼的房间灯”

“打开我的客厅灯”

“关掉我所有的灯”

“卧室”

权限：

- 不幸的是，Android的BLE需要位置权限 - 我们在隐私方面很重要，不幸的是，没有办法在Android上启用位置，因为我们无法在没有它的情况下扫描BLE设备，这就是为什么应用程序不会没有它的功能。除此之外，我们只在启用欢迎家庭时才使用位置数据，因此我们可以告诉您即将回家以优化电池（因此我们不会一直在寻找Switchmates！）。这些数据通常是从其他应用程序缓存的，我们只是抓取这些数据，因此在大多数情况下我们不会进行新的位置检查 - 而且这些数据绝不会从您的手机传输到我们这里。

- 后台服务和唤醒你的设备权限也用于欢迎家庭，所以我们可以ping你的Switchmate让它知道你在家，而不需要打开应用程序。

- 互联网权限用于检查固件更新并向我们发送崩溃报告（通过Google Crashlytics）

- 与Switchmate设备通信需要蓝牙和WiFi权限。

要求：

- Switchmate设备当然！

- 需要Android 4.4.4+，因此我们可以使用蓝牙低功耗以节省大量电池！

Switchmate设备目前仅在美国和加拿大销售
