For $29.99, the TP-Link Kasa Smart Wi-Fi Plug Mini lets you control anything electronic —from your lamps, to your coffee machine, to your air conditioner —straight from your phone. It also offers voice control via Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant, as well as integration with other through and Nest compatibility. Surprisingly, it also works with Microsoft's Cortana voice assistant, but it lacks support for Apple's HomeKit. It works as advertised, though the offers a broader range of third-party integrations and stronger scheduling options for the same price.

To control the Mini, you need to download the free Kasa app from the Apple App Store or Google Play. On the main screen, you'll find a list of your connected devices. There's a plus button in the top right corner, which you can tap to add devices and view instructions for setting up third-party integrations. At the bottom of the screen you'll find tabs for Cameras, Scenes, Smart Actions, and Activity. The Camera and Smart Actions tabs aren't relevant unless you have a Kasa camera or smart home router. The Scenes tab is where you can create custom schedules for multiple smart devices.

For example, you can create a scene for specific activities such as coming home, which will automatically turn on any connected lights. The Activity tab is basically just a record of actions you've performed.

From the main screen, you can also tap on a specific connected device to view more details about it. Elcomsoft distributed password recovery v2.99.445 incl serial. You'll see the type of device it is, how long it's been on, and a power icon to turn it on or off. If you tap on the day's total run time, you can access a more detailed breakdown of how long you use a particular device per day, week, or month.

However, unlike the iDevices Switch or the, you don't get data on how much energy you're using. You can also create time-based schedules, set up timers, and activate Away mode. While those first two actions are pretty self-explanatory, Away mode is a special preset that lets you simulate occupancy in your house while you're on vacation or at work by turning connecting devices on and off. Setup and Performance Setting up the Mini is a breeze. Once you've downloaded the Kasa app, you'll be prompted to create an account and verify your email address. After you've done that, it helps to make sure your phone is connected to a 2.4GHz network, as the Mini does not support 5GHz Wi-Fi.

Plug the Mini in, and the Wi-Fi indicator light should alternate flashing between amber and blue. You'll then be prompted to open your phone's Wi-Fi settings, connect to the plug's own Wi-Fi network, then return to the Kasa app to enter the password for your home network. The whole process should take less than 10 minutes. Pairing the Mini with Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant, and Microsoft Cortana involves a few extra steps.

In each case, you have to enable the TP-Link Kasa skill and link your account information in the individual apps you want to use for voice control. From there, your voice assistant of choice should be able to identify the plug and you can use voice commands to turn it on or off. Cortana is a notable feature here, as most of the plugs we've tested typically feature Alexa, Google Assistant, and/or Apple Siri (via HomeKit), but support for Microsoft's voice assistant is a rare and welcome sight. Using IFTTT is also easy.

All you have to do is load up the IFTTT app and search for (or create your own) Kasa applets, which will enable you to use the plug with other devices. For example, you can create an applet in which the plug turns on or off based on your phone's location. And if you have a Nest device, you can connect it directly through the Kasa app's Add Device menu. Doing so will allow you to automate your plugs based on whether your Nest product detects that you're home or away. The Kasa Mini delivered solid performance in testing.

I set up multiple schedules and scenes, and in each case, the plug responded accordingly with negligible latency. Voice commands also worked without a hitch.

Conclusions The TP-Link Kasa Smart Wi-Fi Plug Mini is easy to install, simple to use, and for $30, offers a good variety of scheduling features and smart home integration. In addition to Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant, you can link it up with IFTTT and Nest products. It also stands out as the only smart plug we've tested that works with Microsoft Cortana.

That said, it's not the best choice for Apple-centric homes, as it lacks HomeKit support. And while you get some energy usage metrics, they're not detailed enough to give you a true sense of how much wattage you're using or how much you can save. If you're looking for HomeKit support and better energy monitoring, the iDevices Switch is a solid alternative. If you can live without energy reporting, our Editors' Choice remains the iHome iSP6X SmartPlug, which works with more smart home devices than any other plug we've tested.
