Wemo Controller: Local Control

Wemo Controller is a local Wemo device manager for compatible legacy Wemo smart plugs, light switches, and dimmers on your home Wi-Fi or LAN.

Control your devices, organize rooms and favorites, and manage schedules, auto-off timers, time windows, and Away Mode without a Wemo cloud account. Home rules explains what will change before you save.

The app discovers supported devices on the local network and controls them with local UPnP/SOAP requests. No Wemo or Belkin cloud account is required.

Features:

- Discover compatible Wemo devices on your home network
- Turn supported plugs and switches on or off
- View and adjust supported dimmer levels
- Listen for local device events while the app is open
- Add a device manually by local IP address if discovery misses it
- Organize devices with favorites, rooms, and custom order
- Use Android home-screen widgets for saved local devices
- View stored home rules in one place, with separate results for each device
- Create single- or multi-device schedules, auto-off timers, ON/OFF windows, Away Mode, and sunrise/sunset rules on compatible plugs, switches, dimmers, and Insight models
- Set scheduled brightness and fade transitions on compatible dimmers
- Review timing, affected devices, clock changes, and possible conflicts before saving
- Edit, pause, or delete individually verified rules created by this editor
- Keep private on-phone rules backups and use reviewed synchronization and recovery flows
- View device details such as model, IP address, last seen time, and status
- Remove stale saved entries from this phone
- Optional keep-screen-awake setting while using the app

This app is designed for local home-network control. Your phone must be on the same Wi-Fi or LAN as the Wemo devices. It does not provide control from outside your home network.

Compatibility and rule safety:

Support depends on the device model, firmware, and available local services. The editor supports reviewed schedules on compatible plugs, switches, dimmers, and Insight models, but available actions and execution behavior vary by model. Shared, unknown, and unverified existing rules stay read-only unless the review flow explicitly identifies a conflicting rule for replacement. Missing, unreadable, or divergent rules databases use guarded backup, synchronization, and recovery flows rather than being treated as empty.

Schedules run on the Wemo device, not on your phone. Execution depends on device power, its clock, and firmware. Saving may affect power immediately; use only with loads that are safe to switch. Pausing a rule does not undo the current power state. A rules backup is not a backup of power, brightness, or device time. Some legacy firmware may remove its rules file after the last enabled rule is stopped, which can prevent further editing or restore.

Optional legacy Wi-Fi setup is experimental and requires an explicit warning and opt-in. A displayed Apple Home setup code does not guarantee pairing. This is not a replacement for every feature of the original Wemo app.

Privacy:

Local device names, IP addresses, rooms, and troubleshooting details stay on this phone unless you choose to share diagnostics. The app does not send local Wemo device data to a developer-operated server.

The app contains Google-served ads. Ad and consent services may use data as described in the privacy policy. Basic local control remains free; ad loading does not block your controls.
