How Do I Control My Smart Plugs and Switches In the SmartRent Mobile App?

In the SmartRent Mobile App, you have the ability to remotely control your smart plugs and switches, set schedules, and monitor their activity.

Controlling Your Plugs and Switches:

To control your On/Off (non-dimmer) switches and smart plugs in the SmartRent Mobile App, follow these steps:

  1. Under Smart Home (or Dashboard if you’ve added the device widget), scroll to Plug or Switch
  2. To turn on the device, tap On
  3. To turn off the device, tap Off

Activity and Schedules:

To view your switch/plug Activity or set a Schedule in your SmartRent App, follow these steps:

  1. Under Smart Home (or Dashboard if you’ve added the device widget), scroll to Plug or Switch
  2. Tap the three dots in the upper right corner of the device card 
  3. To view your Activity, tap View Activity 
    • This will open your Activity feed so you can see when your plugs and switches have been turned on or off
  4. To create a schedule, (i.e. turn my lights on every morning at 7 am), tap Schedule 
    • To make a new Schedule, tap +
    • Set the time and the days you want the Schedule to occur
    • Tap the checkmark in the upper right corner
    • Set what you'd like your plugs/switches to do at the scheduled time
    • Tap the checkmark in the upper right corner after reviewing your Schedule

Smart Plugs:

Always use your smart plug in accordance with applicable instructions. For safety, you should NOT plug the following things into your smart plug:

  • Surge protectors or power strips
  • Sensitive electronics (i.e. TVs, computers, etc.)
  • Personal or space heaters
  • Any device that requires more power than your model smart plug is rated for
