Easy to install, works great but.......
This switch took me about five minutes to install and about the same to set up on WiFi, activate and link to Alexa and IFTTT. I’m a diehard WEMO user but since they don’t offer a motion sensing smart switch, I figured I’d give this a try. Quick install, quick set up and everything works as desired. I’d give this a full five stars if there was a way to shorten the delay in turning off. 60 seconds is a lot longer than I need but hey, I can click the switch if my hands aren’t full (hence the motion sensor) or bark at Alexa to turn it off (hence the WiFi)UPDATE: It’s been installed for a week now and it seems the switch sensor is not 180 degrees but more like 360 and can sense motion through walls. Whenever I enter the room on the other side of the wall that the switch is mounted, it turns on when I get within 10 feet. Not really what I was hoping for. Knocked 2 stars off because I don’t really need a switch whose sensor goes through walls.UPDATE TWO: It’s been installed for two weeks now. I discovered last night that this thing likes to turn on the light without any reason. It turned on three times without cause. Flipped it to manual and will return for warranty replacement and try again.....UPDATE THREE: Requested a return, it was immediately accepted and a replacement sent the same day. Very impressive. Received the replacement, installed it and bammo, this switch operates as expected. No more sensing through the walls or uncommanded energization. Alexa integration working as desired as well. Still wish the time delay was adjustable but no worries, back up to 4 stars! Well done on the customer responsiveness Eoce, well done.

Works PERFECTLY if you need to have a motion sensor able to control other smart switches.
I got this to resolve an issue with a hallway light, as oddly as can be a light switch was placed in the hallway in the perfect location to be a motion sensor for the hallway light... but the switch there was for the laundry room (located in the hallway); the hallway light itself consisted of a 3-way switch with both locations in unideal locations for installing a motion sensor (both spots would be able to see OUT the hallway into the rest of the house, but NOT down the hallway itself towards other bedrooms that SHOULD trigger it)Ultimately, this worked perfectly to solve my problem: using another "smart life" light switch is necessary (smart BULBS apparently can not be linked with this in smart life); I went with a "moes" brand switch, I also ordered an Eoce brand one too but that arrived second and the moes switch did what I needed it to do, so that's what I ended up going with.After using the "Smart life" app for some time now it seems apparent that if one device using it works a certain way, pretty much every other device of that same type is going to work the same way, so I would ASSUME that any smart switch that uses "smart life" should be able to pair/sync with it.So now, whenever the eoce switch which I have replaced my "laundry room" switch with, automatically triggers the "hallway light" moe's brand switch, the result is instantaneous, one goes on and the other goes on, one goes off and the other goes off, within less than 1 second every time.This is a MUCH smarter and better solution overall than the only other option I thought I would have, which was a wireless lutron motion switch but they wanted over $100 for the motion switch itself! This way not only do I have a motion switch paired with another light switch, but they're also smart devices so I can turn them on/off manually through voice commands, AND this switch is better than Lutron's in that it has a simple switch on the front to switch between working as a normal on/off switch, working as an auto motion sensing switch, or being an on/off switch with an always-on night light LED, no need to disassemble it to get to buttons behind the wall plate or anything!

Way too sensitive
I Installed this in my laundry room on a switch that faces the garage door. My laundry room is basically a pathway to the garage with a door on both ends. The intention was to allow it to detect when we walked in from the garage and turn on the laundry room light automatically so we could see to get to the other door. But even though the sensor is facing toward the garage it clicks on the light whenever anyone walks down the hall that's behind the switch. Even with the door closed. So the sensor is somehow picking up "motion" behind it, through the wall, even when there is no possible way it's actually "seeing" anything. My only guess here is that it's actually heat sensitive and the sensor is not properly shielded to only pick up heat in the direction it's facing. So the motion portion is useless, which is the whole reason I bought this in the first place.Unfortunately I bought it over a month ago and just now got around to installing it, so I can even return it.
