Description

If you're looking for a way to make your non-smart appliances smarter, then PlugMonitor for Android might just be the app you need. This entertainment software is designed specifically for the TP-Link HS110 smart plug, allowing you to monitor energy usage and receive notifications when your appliance has finished its cycle.

With this app, you can turn any non-smart appliance into a smart one. Simply plug it into the TP-Link HS110 smart plug and connect it to your wifi network. Then download PlugMonitor for Android onto your phone and start monitoring.

The app works by constantly monitoring the energy usage of the plugged-in appliance. When it drops below a user-specified level, a notification pops up on your phone letting you know that the cycle has finished. This means that even if you're not in the same room as your appliance, or even in the same building, you'll still be able to keep track of what's going on.

One of the best things about PlugMonitor for Android is that once monitoring has started, you can exit out of the app and it will continue running in the background. This means that even if you're using other apps or have locked your phone screen, PlugMonitor will still be working away behind-the-scenes.

Of course, there are other apps out there that work with TP-Link smart plugs - most notably TP-Link's own Kasa app. However, while Kasa is an excellent piece of software in its own right (and one we'd definitely recommend checking out), it doesn't make full use of all of HS110's capabilities.

That's where PlugMonitor comes in - while it doesn't offer all-encompassing control over every aspect of your smart plug like some other apps do (such as IFTTT), what it does offer is an easy-to-use solution for keeping track of when cycles finish on non-smart appliances.

Overall then, if you're looking to add some smarts to an otherwise dumb appliance without breaking bank or having to invest too much time into setting up complex automation routines then give PlugMonitor a try!
