Zimi

I have invested quite a lot in Zimi products over the last 3 years - and they are not cheap. A smart product is dependent on a smart app. The last update is seriously flawed: it often shows incorrect On/Off status of lights and power outlets, often does not respond ,or is so slow it is easier to flick the switch manually. The Zimi concept is fantastic, but the app is simply not good enough.

Won’t connect and when it does it takes forever. Useless.

Worse product ever used. Overpriced and never connects via Bluetooth, can’t find switches constantly. Not much hep when searching for troubleshooting.

Electricity consumption reading doesn’t work since last update. Zimi support is aware of it but doesn’t provide patches. This is quite disappointing for anyone who bought their devices for this feature.

We just had a bunch of these installed in our place and so far it looks and works as expected. The two things that immediately seemed like “a miss” for me were the ability to create custom “lifestyles” (I can only lock unused power points and turn off all lights) and the ability to link a switch button to a lifestyle. With two little kids our hands are always full and it would be awesome to be able to link one spare switch button to the “turn all lights off” lifestyle, for example. The only work around I found was setting up an action through GoogleHome, but that required me to add every single switch independently and it is also extremely slow to respond. Hopefully something like this will be part of a new release.

App is simple and easy to use. Easy to set up with Google Home and start voice commands. Love it! Favourite one is the garage door controller! Well done on the improvements. Keep ‘em coming!

Very simple to use and great format

I’ve had this app and a garage door opener for 2 years now. No issues opening the door via the app and it’s very convenient to use. Great for someone like me who often locks himself out of the house. I’ll definitely buy more Zimi products in the future!

The timers are really helpful. Helps me to setup tv watching controls for the kids. Christmas lights turn on and off at the required time. Integration with google home allows hands free operation of dimmers , lights, switches and garage door.

We have Powermesh in three rooms at home and the Zimi app is amazing for all our controls, timers, schedules etc. just Love it!
