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

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

The service ended rather than the hardware failing: Wemo's cloud, app and voice integrations shut down on 31 January 2026, and a plug already paired to Apple Home before that date keeps working on your own network. For anyone buying one today the result is worse than that sounds — with the cloud gone there is no way to complete first-time setup, so a plug bought now cannot be set up at all. 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. Watch for this if you go looking at Belkin's own site: the product pages for this plug are still up, and they still say it works with Alexa, Google Assistant, Apple Home and IFTTT, with nothing on them about the shutdown. They were written while the service was running and none of that applies now. Belkin's end-of-support notice is the current word. There is also a detail here worth carrying to your next plug, because it decided who kept control: this plug had two setup routes, and only one of them needed Belkin. The Apple Home route asked for nothing but the printed code in the box, while the Wemo app route required a free Wemo account — and it was the app-paired units that went silent on the cutoff date while the Apple Home ones carried on.

Compatibility

EcosystemSupportThe catch
Amazon AlexaDoesn't workVerified: does not work with this ecosystem[5][17]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][17]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][17][20]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][19]Whether this plug keeps working in Home Assistant after Belkin's shutdown still has no official answer, six months on. Home Assistant's official Wemo integration is documented as working over your home network with no cloud, but Belkin's notice says nothing about whether the plug's own local control survives the shutdown, and a new plug can no longer be set up on WiFi without the retired Wemo app. Two dated signs narrow it. Home Assistant still ships and documents the integration as working locally in version 2026.7.4, with no notice that it is going away. And a Home Assistant bug report opened 2026-07-27 describes Wemo devices that were being controlled until the 2026.7.4 update and then stopped responding while still on the network. That suggests plugs set up before the shutdown were still working locally months after it, and that this particular break came from a Home Assistant update rather than Belkin's cloud. One unverified report does not settle compatibility, 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.

Protocols: WIFI[24]

Needs before it works: No hub or bridge. The plug has its own Wi-Fi radio and joins your network directly. Belkin's own documentation names no bridge for this plug, and nothing sat between it and the network in either of its two setup routes. Worth knowing if you have read otherwise about the brand: older Wemo LED bulbs did need a Wemo Link bridge, so "Wemo needs a bridge" is true of some Wemo hardware and false of this plug.[12][24]

Subscription reality[24][25]

✓ Works without a subscription: Yes.

Vendor account required: Optional — there is a documented way to use it without one.[26]

No subscription ever existed. Belkin's own overview and FAQ for this plug run through what it does — remote control, rules, schedules, away mode, voice control — and never put a price on any of it, and the account you could create was free. The cloud those features ran on was switched off entirely on 2026-01-31, so there is no plan to buy today and nothing a plan would restore.

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.
