Fibaro Wall Plug Type E (Apple HomeKit)

Contrary to what is stated in the description for the Apple HomeKit version: "The Fibaro Wall Plug communicates via the Z-Wave (plus) protocol" it only works with HomeKit, so only via your normal WiFi and not via Z-Wave . Can not (yet) be used in combination with Fibaro HCL. With only a HomeKit connection you are quite limited in options at the moment. I should have looked at the Fibaro website first where it clearly states that there are 2 types, 1 for z-wave and 1 for homekit and therefore no combination of both. Coolblue, maybe update the description? They also sometimes lost connection with my WiFi and you have to remove the plug from the socket and plug it in again to get a connection again. This is not very useful if the socket is in a hard-to-reach place.

Nice toys in the beginning, operate the devices via the app, create scenarios to control entire rooms at the same time. But after a week the first plug stopped responding. Unplugged and re-plugged, removed from app and re-added, nothing worked. Just a factory reset. After 2 weeks, the 2nd in line was now also unreachable, and had to be reset as well. In summary: broken firmware on a product that could be fun, and has a hefty price tag. Unfortunately I made the mistake of buying additional plugs within the first week, so I now have 5 plugs that are potential trash cans

The plug does what it promises, but the software and app urgently need improvement. The software update has crashed.
