This Switchmate only works with rocker switches
I gave this product five stars based on the model I used for years. I have a toggle switch for my porch light and used the Switchmate toggle version for years. It was flawless. Turned my light on and off exactly based on my schedule. Set it and forget it. No wiring, great app. It just magnetically attaches to the faceplate. Unfortunately, switchmate no longer makes one for toggle switches. 😢 I ordered this by mistake and returned it because it only works with rocker switches. I have searched all over the country (literally) for one that works with toggle switches with no luck. I can’t fathom why Switchmate no longer makes or supports a device for toggle switches. I can’t be the only home that has no rocker switches. If anyone from Switchmate reads this — please help a guy out and replace the toggle version.

Awful
Don’t waste your money. Doesn’t work regularly. Drains batteries frequently. Poor customer service responses.

It works!!!
After reading so many negative reviews I bought this thinking that it would be an immediate return, especially considering that this item seems designed for a single switch scenario and my switch panel has three different switches. Well, Im happy to report that I was wring. I am amazed by this thing! It took literally 1 minute to set up and there it is, I have automated my outdoor lights. I still need to test to ensure that the timer works even when the phone is out of range, but so far I am beyond happy!!! To note, I don’t use nor need Alexa integration which seems to be an issue for most people. I just wanted a way for my lights to be switched on/off automatically and this does it!

Kind of disappointed
Easy to install. You need Alexa to work with. Without Alexa it’s useless. No remote on and off.

could be a 4 1/2
Takes some playing with to make screws match up and hold unit to light with. I've had one that would not sync and got refund. Don't buy used one to save $ because chances are first attempted install screwed up syncing signal or name.

Great Product!
A bit of a hassle to set up, but after it’s all set up, it works perfectly and is a really nice product! It’s so convenient to be able to control the lights from across the room, and i ended up buying one for all the switches in my apartment!

Functions terribly
The installation is amazing. No tools, magnetic, so simple. That's all I can say is good about this product. You need to download the Switchmate app to use it. Bluetooth and location must be on (which I hate because it'll drain your phone battery). After all that and figuring out how to connect it, it'll disconnect as soon as you walk away from it. When I try to turn it on/off, I just get this message. The only thing that works is completely disconnecting and reconnecting it.This product has a great concept and horrible execution. I was so excited to get it and now I'm just so disappointed. I have my whole room hooked up to wifi controlled switches and I was hoping to have my ceiling lights hooked up as well without needing to replace the light switch completely. This doesn't connect to wifi. It only connects to bluetooth on its own independent app that's rarely functioning as intended. Don't buy this.

Satisfied so far
This is a pretty useful tool for lazy people or people who prefers convenience. Very quick and easy installation. The magnets in the back are surprisingly very strong and secure. But it does give off a whirring sound when operating. Not convenient for a sleeping baby. The Bluetooth connection feels buggy sometimes. Either wait a moment or restart the app usually fixes the connection. I still haven't quite figured out how to connect to Alexa or Google yet. Will need to check YouTube for that.
