So let me just see if I can find my device right here Multiple socket. So this looks like this and actually I don't see mine in here So I'm gonna I'm just going to search for Device but it says So I have a feeling that I have to enter it into the power output and then turn on the Button, so let me just do that And then I'll come back to the phone Okay, so I'm going to input this into my power outlet and So right now Let's see what's happening here. So it's like slowly flushing. So let's turn this on It's supposed to flash Very fast twice per second, but it doesn't look like It's doing that yet. Okay, so Okay, I'll just hold on to it for a few second and let's see what happens here Okay, now looks like it's, you know, very fast flashing Search device. So it's searching for the device Let's see if it can find the device Okay, no, it's not it can't find it. So let me just See if I can choose this electrical outlet and then Search it this way Okay, so it looks like it found it device added successfully and I'm going to Name it differently. So smart socket and I'm going to just call it. Let's say light one I call it light one and Completed now, let's see what we get here Okay, so now it's just giving Me the option. So What I'll do I'll input my Light I'll power my light with this smart plug and I'll come back here to see if this works just one second Okay, so I connected this Device smart plug with my light. So if you like The light is on now and if I just I can turn it off from here So you can see the light right over there like there and see it's working from here But now it's time to set it up with Alexa, which I'll show you next Hello everyone, so you cannot add this smart Wi-Fi plug using this option at device or anything else So what you need to do you have to go to the skills and games section and then once you're there search for Smart life. That's the name of the app. So smart Life and then you will get a match smart life So if you go there then this is the smart life and I hit click on it and enable to use so once I do that is taking me to Enter the phone number or email and the password. So let me just do that Okay, so I entered my email and password that asking here that Alexa by Amazon will be able to receive your public profile control your devices over internet, so let's just authorize and And see what happens. Okay smart life has been successfully linked What to do next close this window to discover smart home device can control your Alexa Okay, so I closed it and let me see if Alexa can turn the light on Alexa Alexa turn on the light Sorry, I didn't find a device named light Okay, so I have a feeling that I have to tell her Light one because I named it light one. So let's try that Alexa Turn on light one Alexa turn on light one Sorry, I didn't find a device named light one Okay, so it looks like Alexa cannot find the device. Hello everyone So it took me a while to figure out how to connect Alexa to the smart Wi-Fi plug Once you are on the smart life app go to settings And then you'll see that you know after you're linking the account then it will show link and then Manage smart home devices. So if you click on there and then if you just Press your home smart home skills Then here you'll see an option which is enabled smart home skills so you have to hit on that which I already did before and Then that will enable the smart home skills now Alexa Turn on light one. Okay Alexa turn off light one. Okay Alexa Turn on living room light Sorry, I didn't find a device named living room light. So once you enable the enable the home smart home on The app Which was right here and I was smart home skills Then you can actually ask Alexa to discover devices, which I already did So if I tell her now, she's not gonna find anything. So if you don't say that Alexa won't be able to link the new device to your plug or the smart Anything so that's the portion or that's the part I was missing So you have to tell Alexa discover smart devices and then she will discover it And then you can actually start giving her comments. So for example, if I tell her now Alexa turn on the Light one then it will turn on Alexa Turn on light one Okay, so now she knows what is light one and what I noticed that when she was discovering the devices she actually Tell told me another word socket. So she knows this device as a socket too So I'm not sure what why is that but let's let's try it Alexa Turn off socket Okay, okay, so but she knows this device as I named it here a light one or you can say socket But you know once you tell her to discover the devices She'll give you the names of the new devices and then yeah, that's how I got the name So that's all for today I would say this is not it was not a like, you know, pleasant experience to set it up It was difficult and it took me a while Maybe it's for the first time or maybe the app and everything they're not that user friendly yet But hopefully in the future it will be a lot easier to set up small smart home devices So if you like what you see, please give it a thumbs up and subscribe because else there will be more videos coming up So I'll see you shortly.
