Gets the job done
I installed this to control some Wiz lights I put into an overhead fan in my office. I used a 3M Command Strip instead of the sticky pad to mount to my wall, as I was afraid it would damage the paint if I wanted to move it. Beyond that, it synced right up and does exactly what it should. It's not customizable beyond which room lights it controls, so don't expect anything more than on/off and you should be happy. I can now more easily make use of my fan lights and don't have to fumble around with my phone or tablet anymore.

Great remotes! (and smart plugs)! In case you needed to know: These will work with wiz smart plugs.
Update: It seems that reviews for the smart plugs AND the wiz remotes fall into the same review bucket. Nice. Well, I bought 3 smart plugs and 1 remote. They work fantastic.i setup a few of these with wiz lightbulbs in the past and loved em! Right now, I don't have any wiz lightbulbs, so I was a little bit concerned if this remote would work with the set of wiz smartplugs I bought recently.Quick answer: YES! The on/off buttons work as expected. I suppose the rest is a little wasteful for now because I don't have any lightbulbs setup in my system, but that's ok. These remotes are a bargain for smarthome setups!

The wireless lighting control switch I've been waiting for!
The media could not be loaded. Quick review:This button does exactly what you hope it would do. It's easy to install via the 3M sticky tape on the back of the wall mount, so no need for drilling or holes! Programming it in the Wiz app (v2) was straight forward and took less than 2 minutes. A bit of technical knowledge is useful when programing, but if you're adding physical buttons to your smart home, you [probably] already know that. It also functions as a dimmer switch, as well as full-on, full-off single button presses.You can link this button to a single lightbulb, rooms, or even multiple rooms full of lights. It's nice that you can remove the button from the wall mount and use it as a mobile remote. Just place it back in the mount when you're done and the magnets will hold it in place until the next time you need it.Longer Review:If you're like me, you love the concept of smart home automation. And if you're even more like me, you refuse to pay Philips Hue pricing for lightbulbs and peripherals. This lead me to buying multiple Amazon deals and sale items over the years, which meant I had to have 3-4 different apps on my phone to run them all. Yes, these apps can all be managed in groups by Alexa, Google Home, etc., but the fact is, there was no overall device that can send a lighting cue to multiple different brands of lights via Google or Alexa (that I found, anyways). It's also a drag when people who are visiting, and perhaps a bit less tech savvy, want to turn lights on and off with no physical switch in the room. It's unreasonable to expect my 65 year old father-in-law to bust out his phone, which he barely uses, to open an app and fumble around looking for the proper lighting groups in the house.That's where Wiz has changed the game. They sell plenty of different lighting and outlet options that all link to a single app (a very well designed, user-friendly app, might I add), that you then link to your Smart Home service of choice. They are affordably priced and the build quality seems on par with what you'd expect. The colors of the lights are accurate enough, although not as rich as Hue lights. But I can buy 8 Wiz bulbs for the price of 3 Hue bulbs, so I can live with that.We have since converted nearly all of our smart bulbs throughout the house over to Wiz and it's been a dream. We use this particular wireless button to control 4 bulbs in our living room (see the video review), and some of their wireless remotes throughout other rooms in the house to control different sections as needed. I was initially shocked at how simple these were to pair and setup via the Wiz V2 app. As mentioned before, programming and setting these up isn't for everybody, but chances are you will find their instructions easy enough to follow along.It runs off of 2 AAA batteries, which I haven't had to change yet (purchased this about 3 months ago). And stays connected to my wifi with 0 issues.If it has any weaknesses at all, I would say that the magnets in the button and wall mount could be a tad bit stronger. I have knocked it out of it's mount by mistake, but that falls under "user error", in my opinion. Under general use with proper care, this switch should last a long time.All in all, my family and guests have been very happy to have a physical button to press when they need lighting control, and I would recommend to anyone who's invested in the Wiz line of smart bulbs in their home or business.

Worked for a while but stopped working after I moved
I loved this product, it's extremely useful and you can set the buttons to do practically anything, like turn on wakeup mode when you're up in the morning, without needing your phone. It's extremely helpful, useful, and well made.I personally purchased it because my previous location was a dorm and I couldn't connect my lights to my school wifi, so I originally used a hotspot to control them, but this allows for control without wifi.Unfortunately, mine doesn't seem to have lasted long. I moved to an apartment and was hopeful to use it again, though I now have a normal wifi connection so it's not quite as useful. However, when I press the buttons the light that indicates a successful action is very glitchy, dim, and it doesn't work or connect to the app. I replaced the batteries and there is no corrosion or damage, it just seems to have died. I'm hoping I can contact the company for a replacement and I'll update this if it happens.
