Purchased the Switchbot blinds with hub mini.Here is my review. First after reading through other reviews I unpackaged the units and immediately charged the units for about 6 hours (much easier to charge prior to installation). Then I installed the unit, very easy to install. I didn't time my first installation but the second install to less than 5 minutes. The calibration takes less than a minute.The feature set is great. I originally just set a time to close on the first day and open them through the app in the morning, worked perfect. The second day I create an automation to open at sunrise and close at sunset - PERFECT. The feature set includes Time, Automate, close up, close down, light sensing, status of blinds (open or closed with percentage) as well as other features. The solar panel is a very nice touch and the app displays the battery status. One thing I would have like is a longer cable for the solar panel, I have a 3 to 4 foot overhang directly above the windows. I originally installed at the top of the window but didn't get enough light so I moved it down as far as I could, works better but I will just buy an extension cable to fix that issue. This is a great product. I was originally designing my own using an ESP8266 and a stepper motor. I would have spent more with less features so I bought this. THIS PRODUCT GREAT.Additional review of Switchbot motion sensor:Setup was simple since I already have a Switchbot hub mini. The sensor works well and has settings for short, medium, long distance and a light sensing feature which I am not using since my blinds are already dusk to dawn. The feature set is a little lacking. There are no unique tones so you have to use notifications from the existing ones on your phone. You can disable the sensor from the app but it’s buried a couple menus down and you have to turn it back on after it’s disabled, what I would have like to seen is a snooze button on the main menu where you could choose the interval ( 1, 2 ,3 hours.

The media could not be loaded. Was considering buying the Sunsa Wand and read about the Switch bot Blind tilt and decided to go with these instead. I’m so glad I did! They work great and were really easy to install! Our sheer curtains hide most of them, however, even on the windows where we do not have curtains they are pretty discrete and still look great. I highly recommend them. I have them setup to work with HomeKit so we can open and close all our blinds at once.

I've bought two of these kits now to cover 6 windows. They all work great! I use them primarily with Alexa. The first one took about 30-60 minutes to install, but the rest took about 10-15 minutes each. It is a very easy process that doesn't require removing your blinds from the window.I've loved being able to have them all close at night for privacy, and have it open in the morning to help me wake up. I love being able to close the blinds in the TV room (to prevent glare) with just my voice!

The product works great, but only 2 months in and 2 of the 6 I installed have stopped working already. I will be reaching out to support as these are not the cheapest and to be braking that early is a shame. I will update based on the interaction with their support.UPDATE:I reached out to support and they sent me some detailed instructions on sending them a video of the blinds and I ended up having them close the support with no help because I was out of town and couldn't reply in time. Fortunately they saw my review and said they wanted to offer a replacement separate from my support request. I sent my address and got them the next day. Everything works great now. I updated from 3 to 4 stars, I would give 5 but it was a bit disappointing they didn't initially help when I submitted a ticket. Ultimately I would recommend as the product is great and they did take care of me and back their product in the end.

I was skeptical at first, but the SwitchBot Smart Electric Blinds Tilt has completely transformed how we manage sunlight and privacy at home. Installation was straightforward and surprisingly non-invasive — no need to take down existing blinds or drill into the window frame. Within 10–15 minutes, it was up and running.The real magic is in the automation and voice control. I’ve scheduled the blinds to open with the sunrise and close at night, which not only helps with sleep cycles but also adds a nice energy-saving touch. It integrates perfectly with Alexa, Google Assistant, and Siri Shortcuts. Saying “Hey Siri, it’s movie time” and watching the blinds close on command feels futuristic. - need SwitchBot matter hub to integrate to HomeKit. Hub 2.0 will integrate to Alexa Google home and smartthings
