Wemo Smart Mini Plug gains Apple HomeKit compatibility thanks to update

Apple HomeKit users just got a new device to connect into their ecosystem.

Continuing to expand its award-winning Internet of Things ecosystemWemo today announced that Wemo Mini Smart Plug users can install new software from the Wemo App to enable Apple HomeKit compatibility. With this software update, Wemo Mini Smart Plug customers can add their Mini devices to the Apple Home app and have Siri control their devices and what’s plugged into them.

Users can include the Wemo Mini into scenes and rooms to work with more than one hundred other HomeKit compatible products and access them while on the go.

The Wemo Mini Smart Plug is the first Wemo product to leverage Apple’s software authentication for HomeKit to enable compatibility without the use of other hardware.

“We have sold more than one million Wemo Minis and with Apple’s new software authentication of HomeKit, our customers can easily integrate their Wemo devices with the Apple Home app and Siri, to enjoy the full Apple experience of home control,” said Justin Doucette, senior director of product management for Wemo.
