But look on the bright side: There's one day left of Amazon's Prime Day sale, and the most onerous of President Trump's tariffs have yet to take effect.
Belkin stopped selling some of these Wemo products several years ago, but the company continued to operate the servers they depended on. After January of next year, however, you won't be able to operate them at all using the Wemo app or with any third-party services.
These recommendations are based on my assumption that you'll want to replace your Wemo devices with something equally simple, so I won't get into every alternative, including some that might be more appealing to smart home power users. I will, however, help you minimize the brands you buy into, so you don't need to juggle lots of smart home apps.
There are some cases where that won't be possible, however, because I'm recommending Lutron products as my top picks in many categories, and Lutron doesn't make smart bulbs or indoor smart plugs that can handle small appliances. Lutron also doesn't currently support Matter, if that's important to you (it's not to me).
If you're using Amazon Alexa, Apple HomeKit, or Google Home, using more than one app isn't all that onerous once you've set up a given product and perhaps set up some on/off schedules, because most of your interactions with it will involve using voice commands. You'll find you won't need to rely on those apps all that much.

This power bank is incredibly versatile, featuring not one but two built-in cables. One of them serves as a handle, while the other is retractable so you can pull it out whenever you need it. To top it off, there are two ports—a USB-A and USB-C—on the side of the device.
The retractable cable extends up to 2.3 feet, while the strap-style one measures just under a foot. It delivers a total output of 165W when both USB-C ports or cables are in use. It also supports up to 100W single-port charging, which is perfect for pretty much any laptop. The small display on the power bank will tell you exactly how fast each port or cable is charging.
Frankly, what are you even waiting for? This 25K power bank is ideal for any situation and is easy to carry around, so snag one for $94.49 while deal is still around.
