Controlling your Wemo® devices with Siri® Voice Control

Siri® Voice Control is an efficient way of managing different accessories from anywhere on the interface through your voice.  After you set up your Wemo® devices and add them to the Apple Home app, you can ask Siri to turn ON / OFF a Wemo device.

Make sure that you have any of the devices below for Siri to function:
  • iPod touch®
  • iPhone®
  • iPad®
  • Apple Watch®
  • Apple TV® (4th generation)
IMPORTANT:  In the Apple Home app, make sure that you’re consistent with naming your Wemo devices and assigning them to rooms.  Otherwise, Siri can’t help you in identifying and controlling them.  

Below are few of the things you can ask Siri, depending on the accessories you have, their names, and your scenes:

 
"I’m home."
"Turn on the lights in the bedroom." 
"Turn off the lights in the dining room."
"Turn off the lights in my home."

You can manage scenes through Siri by giving commands like:

"Siri, turn off "Scene Name"."
"Siri, turn on "Scene Name"."

NOTE:  Several Wemo devices cannot be controlled by Siri when your iOS device is locked.
