Lights. Security. Comfort. Now they’re all connected through a single app, so you don’t need a different one for every product. Simple controls allow you to monitor and manage everything in your home. This means it can do more for you, and you can do less. Finally.
Wink brings the best brands together in a single easy-to-use app so you have flexibility and control when it comes to your smart home: Bali, Cree, Commercial Electric, Dropcam, Emerson, GE, GoControl, Honeywell, Kidde, Kwikset, Lutron, Leviton, Nest, OSRAM, Pella, Philips, Quirky, Rachio, Schlage, TCP, and more partners are added frequently.
Wink makes setup clear with step-by-step guides and videos. If you ever need help with anything, you can talk to a real human at 844-WINK-APP or [email protected].
Wink is free to download and doesn’t charge any fees for use.
Many products work directly with the Wink app. Other products use the Wink HUB to get connected. The Wink HUB allows your diverse collection of smart products to speak the same wireless language so you can control them --and customize their interactions-- from the Wink app.
SHORTCUTS: In-app Shortcuts allow you to control multiple smart products with a single swipe. Like turning on your house in the morning or setting the mood for moving night.
ROBOTS: In-app Robots let you customize the way products talk to each other. You can have your smoke detector turn your lights on automatically if smoke is detected so you can see to safely get out.
ACTIVITY: Wink gives you the power to know exactly what’s going on in your home. Easily keep tabs when the door was opened or when the temperature was adjusted.

Not worth the money
panepintojohn
I bought this one because a friend told me about it. I works ok with little problems. It started of as a free app and now they want to charge you per month to use the app remotely. Just not worth it.
You serious? A subscription?

Everything was already very “meh” Maybe 8 years ago subscription would work but in this time when i can control my coffee maker remotely for free you want me to pay for this? Screw you wink. Never again will I buy a product from you.
Bait and switch

Like others I purchased products over the years only to have them all rendered useless unless I sign up for a new paid subscription. The development and functionality has been steadily decreasing for quite some time and now the products don’t work. Stay away and let this company die off.
Do not buy !! it is a Scam

All of a sudden after investing on wink sevice and things used to work. all of a sudden wink app is promoting for subscription for 5 bucks a month to go to any thing in the app . On the website they say local setup and control of devices does not require subscription but it’s a lie it requiring me subscription for me to even navigate the menu items in the app . This app is holding all your investment hostage and asking for ransom. Do not buy any wink products anymore. Also there web site presents chamberlain product as one of the branda they integrate with but the scam is they are lying. they have discontinued the integration since May 2020. I just bought “wink hub 2”. And the app won’t even let me add the device. It’s a easy fix I am taking it back and getting my refund to invest on something worthy. Mark my words with this business model and the midst of pandemic more people staying home. Wink will go under by end of 2021 3rd quarter
Stay away from wink

Used wink to control my aros air conditioner, then they decided to charge for the app, doesn’t seem worth it for 1 appliance. The aros didn’t come with a physical remote so now it’s rendered our air conditioner almost useless since it’s not in a place that was easily accessible. Going to look specifically for appliances that do not use wink in the future.
This company is DEAD

don’t waste your time, not worthy!! Not to mention that now you have to sign up for a subscription and they don't even say that on the description of the app.
Pay for service and still terrible quality
Bladergang414
Switched to pay for monthly service and quality is still terrible. Wink hub is down more often than not and it’s not because of my internet or WiFi. It just stops working
Server connection lost
app now useless
App update that was supposed to fix issue has now completely crashed app. Just keep getting message server connection lost. Can’t control anything!
Wink disappeared
Joeldor
I have a full wink integration of hubs 1 & 2 with most of my light switches automated. All functionality has gone. I can’t log in, my hubs aren’t connected to the server and I can’t even pull up their website to email or call them.
