Belkin Wemo Smart Plug (Wemo Mini WSP080 and WiFi plug line)

Compiled by SmartHomeWorkflow Research · Belkin (Wemo) · Plugs & Outlets

State is 'ended' rather than 'bricked' because that is the precise fact: the SERVICE ended, and a unit already paired to Apple HomeKit before the cutoff keeps working locally. ⚠ For anyone buying one today the practical result is worse than 'ended' — with the cloud gone there is no way to complete first-time setup, so a plug bought now cannot be commissioned at all. That distinction is carried in theCatch and is the fact a buyer needs. ⚠ This axis had sat at 'unknown' with a null date WHILE the record's own theCatch already described the shutdown accurately in the past tense — the fact was known, written, and never landed in the structured field a freshness check can see. The Wemo cloud, app, and Alexa/Google integrations shut down permanently on January 31, 2026. Only units already paired to Apple HomeKit before that date still have smart control, and Belkin says new HomeKit setup is no longer possible, so a plug bought today cannot be set up at all.

EcosystemSupportThe catch
Amazon AlexaDoesn't workVerified: does not work with this ecosystem[5]Dead since 2026-01-31 — Belkin shut down Wemo cloud services as scheduled, and voice assistant integrations ran through that cloud. The only survivor path is Apple HomeKit: units already configured in Apple Home keep working locally, which does not restore Alexa control.
Google HomeDoesn't workVerified: does not work with this ecosystem[6]Dead since 2026-01-31 — Google Home/Assistant control ran through the Wemo cloud, which Belkin shut down as scheduled. Only units pre-configured in Apple HomeKit retain any control (locally, via Apple Home); nothing restores Google control.
Apple HomePartialPartial support — see the catch[3][8]HomeKit (not Matter), local only, and only for HomeKit-capable models (WSP080, WSP090, F7C063; WSP100 Thread) that were already configured before 2026-01-31. Belkin states new HomeKit setup is no longer possible after that date.
SmartThingsDoesn't workVerified: does not work with this ecosystem[7]Belkin's end-of-support notice says all cloud-dependent third-party integrations stopped when the Wemo cloud shut down on 2026-01-31; SmartThings is not named individually, but its integration was cloud-to-cloud and is covered by the blanket shutdown. No path to SmartThings control remains for the WiFi plug line.
Home AssistantInconclusiveWe researched this and the evidence doesn't settle it — the catch explains why[4][10]Home Assistant's official Wemo integration is documented as LAN-local with no cloud dependency, but Belkin's notice makes no statement about whether the device-local API survives the shutdown, and new devices can no longer be provisioned onto WiFi without the retired app. Still officially unanswered six months on, with two dated data points that narrow it. Home Assistant ships and documents the integration as IoT class Local Push in 2026.7.4, with no deprecation notice. And a Home Assistant issue opened 2026-07-27 reports Wemo devices that were being controlled until a 2026.7.4 update stopped responding, with the devices still on the network — which implies units configured before the shutdown were working locally months after it, and that this particular break is a Home Assistant regression rather than the Belkin cloud. One unverified report is not a compatibility verdict, so this stays unknown rather than becoming a claim that it works.

? Inconclusive means we researched that ecosystem and the evidence doesn’t settle it — the catch says why, and the sources are listed below. It is a statement about the available evidence, never a verdict on the product. A Setup Check researches your exact setup where the official sources don’t answer.

Maintenance reality[3]

Who it's for

A warning profile: no one should buy a Wemo WiFi plug new or used in 2026, because remaining retail stock cannot be set up. Existing owners: if your model is HomeKit-capable and was configured before January 31, 2026, it keeps working locally through Apple Home; Thread WSP100 units are unaffected; non-HomeKit models have no remaining smart function, and Belkin points in-warranty owners to its refund form and everyone else to e-waste recycling.
