Before you buy

What do you need to make it work?

No hub for the device alone

Choose a platform above for its connection. A hub can be optional for the device itself and required for a platform or automation.

Works standalone over Bluetooth LE: on-device display, app readings, alerts, and 68 days of local data need no hub. A SwitchBot hub is required for remote access, Alexa/Google Home/SmartThings/IFTTT, the on-screen weather forecast, and Matter; Matter specifically requires Hub 2, Hub 3, or Hub Mini Matter Enabled.[3][4][5][7][20][22]

SwitchBot Hub 3

Optional equipment is listed; its role has not been established.[3][4][5][7][20][22]

One device can provide more than one role. These are setup requirements, not a shopping list of separate purchases.

What could you do with this?

Put its functions to use.

Research, not hands-on testing

Start with a documented control or event. The selected connection shows what is confirmed for that platform.

Setup and sources

Apple Home

Via Matter bridging through Hub 2, Hub 3, or Hub Mini Matter Enabled — temperature/humidity exposed to Apple Home. Hub 2 bridges max 8 sub-devices (Hub Mini Matter Enabled: 4). Siri Shortcuts also officially listed.[14][19][23]

Google Home

Requires a SwitchBot hub; Google Home is on the official third-party services list.[9]

Alexa

Requires a SwitchBot hub; readings reach Alexa through SwitchBot's cloud, not directly.[9]

SmartThings

SmartThings is on the official third-party services list; requires a SwitchBot hub (cloud-to-cloud link).[9]

Home Assistant

Via Home Assistant's SwitchBot Bluetooth integration: local, no hub, exposes temperature/humidity/battery. Documented by Home Assistant, not by SwitchBot.[2][24][30]

Plans and ongoing costs[16][20][22]

◐ Works without a subscription: Yes. The maker also sells an optional paid plan.

Vendor account required: Not established — we have not sourced this yet.

The sensor keeps 68 days of readings on the device itself and 2 years of history in the app, and none of that costs anything. Everything you would use day to day is included: the live readings, the alerts, the voice assistants, the export to a spreadsheet. What SwitchBot charges for is keeping history older than two years, in its own words on the product's spec table: 'Storage beyond 2 years requires a payment for continued use.' ⚠ SwitchBot publishes no price for that, anywhere we can find — so the honest shape of this is that a charge exists, it arrives two years in at the earliest, and nobody outside SwitchBot knows what it is. Re-confirmed 2026-09-17 on SwitchBot's own US product page.

Maintenance and offline use[2][4]

Who it's for

Suits households that want an accurate always-visible temperature/humidity display first and smart-home integration second, especially those already owning a SwitchBot hub or running Home Assistant with Bluetooth.

The commitment, verbatim: "We will deliver an updated experience for you on a regular basis including updated security patches. The period of software update support is 2 years, see the table below for details." The table it points to contains exactly ONE row — "SwitchBot Floor Cleaning Robot S10 | 2023/10/16 | 2025/12/31" — under the headings "Product Name", "Launch Date" and "End date of software update support". The same policy publishes remediation targets rather than a support horizon: "critical and high-risk vulnerabilities will be fixed within three working days, high-risk vulnerabilities within 0.5 months, medium-risk vulnerabilities within one month, and low-risk vulnerabilities within four months", with reports to security@switch-bot.com. Rungs walked per method note 69: (a) no SwitchBot regulatory-declaration library (UK PSTI / EU CRA) could be located — a first-party search surfaced only per-product FCC "Safety and Compliance Information" articles, which carry no support period; (b) answered by this policy page; (c) the product's own page sits on us.switch-bot.com, a host our conduct register lists as refusing us, and was not reachable when this entry was written. — Read on the maker's own site, verified 2026-08-20
