Sensibo Sky, Smart Wireless Air Conditioner Controller. Quick & Easy DIY Installation. Maintains Comfort with Energy Efficient. Automatic Wifi Thermostat Control App. Google, Alexa and Siri Compatible

I recently had an air con system installed and was a bit disappointed to find that getting the WiFi enabled model was about £250 more expensive per unit (which quickly adds up when you have more than one). I was researching ideas on how to handle this and came across Sensibo. The ad promised everything and I have to be honest I was a little skeptical on it's promise of compatibility but wow I'm truly impressed by this. It's a neat little unit on a USB charger that in essence acts as a remote control replicator with your device so it's truly plug and play and it took a little over 7 minutes to get it fully operational. I'm super impressed by how easy it is to use and the extended schedules and controls you get via the app. The alexa setup was a little bit trickier because I had to uninstall and reinstall the app but it's a super impressive contraption here and would highly recommend for anyone who wants to take control of their system!

So easy to set up and start using in a few minutes... Great product.

The Sensibo is essentially an WiFi Remote Control for your Air Con Unit. If you're expecting it to act like a thermostat, then it's not what you're after. Setup of the Sensibo is fairly straight forward. Install the app, scan the QR code and away you go, although I had a few issues and needed to make a few attempts before I got it setup. I've got it integrated with Google Home which works pretty well. Google Home see's it as a thermostat, so if you also have a Nest Thermostat and tell Google you're hot or cold, your AC will also turn on to whatever temperature Google Home has chosen for you. Whilst it works pretty well for the most part, it has a critical flaw that other reviews and posts have noticed. Sending the commands are temperamental. I've got my Sensibo mounted at horizontal alignment with the Air Con, about 5 meters away. 90% of the time, when I issue a command, it lights up and the Air Con does what it needs to. The other 10% of the time though, Sensibo lights up and nothing happens. At first I thought it was a signal strength issue, so I temporarily moved it closer and in front of the IR port on the Air Con, but I still ran into the same issue. Looking around, it seems others experience this issue too, so I dont think its anything to do with my placement of the device. Its stuck in a fixed position which works 90% of the time.. The only other thing to mark it down on is the app. Whilst it works, its not particular intuitive, and its quite ugly with a lot of wasted space! As I believe the unit also lacks a thermometer, don't expect any thermostat like controls or readings as to what the room air temperature actually is. It's a little underwhelming as a product to be honest, especially for the price. I'm pretty sure you can accomplish the same thing with Logitech Harmony devices. From what I can tell, all this device does is mimics your battery powered remote control. UPDATE: Sensibo reached out to me after posting this review, and have shown me how to change the remote type my device is using. Since doing this, my limited tests seemed to have resolved the issues with sending commands.

Basically a WiFi enabled remote control with an app. Works well but for what it is, it seems expensive. A ridiculous amount of basic functionality in the app is behind a paywall, which is unforgivable given the upfront cost of the product.

Connection is great and easy. Temp control excellent. Any problems with anything the customer service is second to none. Delighted with my purchase.

Nice little gadget that adds wireless function to my budget air con unit. Setup was very easy. I mainly wanted it so I can use it with Alexa, it does work but the functions are limited. I can't seem to find a list of commands that actually work, they don't advertise it anywhere on their website. I've marked it down a little because I will say "alexa turn the ac on" and alexa confirms the command but the sensibo led doesn't come on, usually have to ask it twice. My unit is placed 1 meter under the air con ir sensor so it's perfectly placed. The app is a little poor aswell. They have a function to set climate control and its great you can set "feels like" rather then actual temperature but thees no way in the app to see what the current "feels like" temperature actually is? So it takes alot of guess work to actually fine tune the settings. I think it's massively over priced aswell.

What a great device for automating your IR AC or Fans, I have these working to control my Delonghi AC, Dyson Pure Cool and regular Dyson Fan, the Dyson Pure Cool did not work when purchasing the Sensibo as this does not use the same remote as the regular Dyson fans, but after contacting their support, they managed to do a recording session with myself and programmed the remote control, I can now confirm this is fully working with the Dyson Pure cool, the support team answer all queries very quickly, they are even updating the regular Dyson fan control so when adjusting the temp this will control the fan speed instead, this will make it much easier to control via Alexa. The device itself is very easy to set up, just plug it in, open the Sensible app, scan the barcode, then point your remote at the Sensibo so it can discover your AC model. Great product with great helpful support.

Really impressed, I've used a Broadlink RM mini to control my AC unit for some time, this was buggy, slow, unreliable and struggled to control the fan speed properly and timers were next to useless. This unit was a piece of cake to set up and just worked, the app is easy to use and does more than I expected, the price seems high for the hardware but it the backend and software that make it well worth the money as a bonus it works pretty well with Google Home / Google Home Hub

So I've had this for about 3 years using it with a window air conditioner can't tell you the brand off that my head it works quite well occasionally the IR broadcast doesn't make it to the air conditioner but that's very few and far between and tends to be when adjusting the volume up or down so it might be off by a degree on occasion it's easy to fix just switch it back to Fan adjust up or down so that the app matches the device and then continue using schedules work great climate react Works quite well I have the issue where my window air conditioner will let it get quite hot in my room if it's cooler outside but I'm allergic to cut grass so sometimes I still need the air conditioner on even when it's nice out so the climate react can help prevent it from getting overly hot in the room when it's set to auto on the air conditioner which is a lifesaver sometimes on top of that if you do pay for the subscription there are a lot of very interesting and potentially useful add-ons I personally I don't use it but I have in the past and since I used it and they have added a lot more capability however I'm not sure how many of them would actually function with my air conditioner which is pretty old it's 10 years old or so but basically as long as it has an infrared receiver this device will work with any air conditioner maybe even heating unit. It'll also keep track of how long the device has been on and when the built-in filter to your air conditioner should be checked which is quite nice to just get a notification on the phone because when my air conditioner it's a little orange light that unless you're standing right in front of it you're not going to notice at least I don't. One last thing I don't have a Lexus I can't State how well it works with that however Google Assistant Works quite well the only issue I have is that you can only set it with Google Assistant to heat cool and fan you can't set it to the auto setting and I don't know if that's the restriction from my air conditioner or if it's because of Google but to be honest it's not the end of the world either and if I need to turn it on remotely having it set to cool is fine and then when I get home or when I can pull out my phone or something I can adjust it.

Paket erhalten, ausgepackt, angeschlossen, läuft. Was soll ich noch mehr dazu sagen? Per App verbunden, WLAN eingerichtet, alles innerhalb einer Minute. Fernbedienung gegen gehalten power gedrückt, fertig. Meine Klima (Tosot) wurde sofort erkannt. Einfach super, nun kann ich von Unterwegs die Klima steuern. Nächster Schritt ist die Einbindung in meine Homematic.

The product is perfect, save me being worried especially in summer in this part of the region (Middle east summer time) However only one problem, it is expensive if am going to buy one for each unit. However, the installation was easy and i like the product.

100% worth it super-friendly apps and easy to installed it.Just plug and play, and it is done. You just need to download the apps from the Play Store to start using the controller. Just follow the instructions from the apps, and it will only take 5 minutes to complete the process. So far, I don't even need to choose which brand of air conditioner I am using; it is just automatically configured and can be used immediately after you install it. The item was very small, and Compaq is half the size of my phone. The controller has a lot of functions and features that you can try to use, but in the meantime, I just set a few functions on the apps.One of them was that they had a graph where you could see how much you were using the air conditioning either day, month, or year. I'm thinking of getting another one soon because it is much better than the one I had from a third party, which should be compatible with my air conditioner but somehow gave me a lot of issues with connection and always crashed.
