I used the wallet card! And let me tell you, it has been an amazing experience with it. I recently forgot my wallet at a grocery store and if it not were to the switch bot wallet card, I would have never found my wallet. The experience with this was amazing.

Really handy to be able to control my switch bot devices. App is easy to use and is logically setup, so you don't have to spend ages hunting around to do actions. I've bought a number of switch bots because they work so well and pairing with the app is so straightforward

I had switched from aqara to switch bot. Aqara failed many times to auto lock door and also using the remote to open the door, failed miserably. After switching to Switch Bot Ultra, most of my issues had been resolved. There are very few occasions where I unlocked the door and closed it immediately, Switch Bot Ultra is unable to react immediately to lock my door. I had to manually press it to lock my door. However, I think this can be resolved by some software upgrades. Lastly, I made a right switch

I regret buying switch bot. Many months later and no change. I bought the matter hub, and it states only 8 devices can be added to matter in the switch bot app, yet it gives an error trying to add more than 4 devices to matter. What am I supposed to do with the rest of my devices? Throw them away? The app constantly fails to connect and update devices too. Edit: a year later, no improvement I've replaced my switch bot devices with son off snzb-02d

When switching to a new phone all my historical data is gone from my sensors. Also, quite ridiculous that the app takes up around 500 megabytes. And syncing a sensor over Bluetooth takes 5 to 10 minutes for a week of data and the app has to be in the foreground all the time. Why is there no background syncing?
