No separate app or hub required. Install the switch, and power on. Open the Alexa app, tap the Devices icon, and click the + icon to get started.

Control From Anywhere

To use your device with Alexa, just say phrases like “Alexa, turn on first switch”, “Alexa, set brightness to 50%”, or “Alexa, dim the light”.

Scheduling & Routines

Use the Alexa app to create routines for your smart switch that make life easier. For example, set a routine that turns on lights at sunset.

Single Pole Smart Switch Installation

Are neutral wires required?

Yes, neutral wires are required for installation (present for most US homes built after 1978). To check, turn off power at the circuit breaker and remove the existing switch. A pair of white wires should be present. If unsure, consult an electrician.

What if I’m having issues installing my smart switch?

1. Verify you have NEUTRAL wires

2. Verify if the switch is wired correctly. The LED blinks green when installation is complete

3. Consult a licensed electrician if you have additional questions

What if I can’t connect my device to Alexa?

1. Verify your Alexa device and Alexa app have the latest software version

2. Make sure your Alexa device and switch are connected to the same Wi-Fi network

3. Verify your paired device is within 30 ft (9m) of your switch

4. Reset your smart switch

How do I reset my smart switch?

To reset your smart switch: Press and hold the on/off switch for 10 seconds; release the switch once you see the status indicator blinking green and red; once the indicator blinks green only, reset is complete and the switch is ready to set up
