YoLink SpeakerHub - Smart Home Speaker Hub, Plays Tones/Alarms and Your Text-to-Speech Custom Messages, Voice Announcements, Audio Voice Alert, Spoken Alerts, LoRa-Powered ¼ Mile Range, WiFi Required

This is the central hub required for all YoLink products. Pros: - Plays tones, alarms, and custom text-to-speech messages - Excellent LoRa range (1/4 mile) - Voice announcements and spoken alerts work great - Easy to expand coverage Cons: - Needs WiFi for full function I added a second one for my 5 acre property and now have the whole parcel covered. Can even use a sensor with a neighbor on his property for joint projects. The whole YoLink ecosystem is rock solid. Would I recommend? Yes, 5 stars.

I’ve had a look at a few other products like this one, but none of them quite hit the mark. It seems to have been crafted by someone who really gets it and knows what they’re doing, which sets it apart from the others. Plus, it sends you a notification about any movements right to your phone, no matter where you are.

I just bought the Speaker Hub along with the door sensor. I wanted this for my mailbox. Every day I go to get the mail and it's not there yet. Hopefully this will tell me when the mail person delivers the mail. I will say that the instructions on this are VERY VERY CONFUSING. I contacted support. they responded right away with step by step instructions. Made all the difference. I still have not yet tried to items in the mailbox but will tomorrow.

I used this hub with yolink freezer sensors. They were very easy to set up and already helped me prevent spoilage when a breaker tripped and my freezer turned off. Only minor complaints so far: 1. Sometimes it'll update every 30 seconds and other times it won't update for up to 30 minutes at a time. There's no indication in the app what causes this. Is it a connection issue? It's not based on stability of the temperature. 2. This one is user error, not the device's fault. You have to set the alerting thresholds lower than you'd expect to avoid false alarms. The devices capture all of the normal temperature variations throughout the day and happily alert even if nothing is actually wrong.

Audible & text alert are instantaneous. Email alert lags quite some time behind. It's a minor thing and all in all a good product. Beware, connecting to network can be q bit quirky and stubborn at times during initial setup but after that smooth sailing. Can't comment on leak detection because I unfortunately purchased this after my water heater ruined part of my floor. Same with battery life. I simply haven't owned this product long enough.

The SpeakerHub announces when a sensor has been triggered. This has tremendous value when you are within hearing range of the hub and 1) cannot receive or see your phone for SMS or email notifications or 2) you are not a user of the YoLink App. For example, you have gate sensors on your property but it is night and your are asleep. The SpeakerHub would alert you to an intruder. It will speak the description of the sensor and optionally sound an alert tone. It can be repeated up to 3 times with a volume level you set. It can also be programmed to do this during a time window you set. Another occupant, e.g., your wife, a guest, your kids, etc., who don't have the App on their phone, would hear the alert. This could apply to a gate sensor or water leak sensor or any other YoSmart sensor. I bought two if these for my home. I have one in my living room/kitchen area that is always enabled. The other is in my bedroom enabled on a schedule during sleeping hours. I live on an acre with multiple entry gates. If someone is on my prop, especially during night hours, they are probably up to no good. I'd rather know before they can do harm. BTW, to use two or more SpeakerHubs, you will need to program the "Automation" feature in the App. This is not difficult. YoSmart has a video tutorial for this. I recommend watching all the video tutorials that apply to you equipment and setting up everything in front of you before you install. Label the sensors so you can keep track of which is which. YoSmart is the first company, after years of looking online, to offer an outdoor, waterproof, gate sensor with truly long-range wireless communication. Not only am I on 1 acre but my prop slopes downhill from my house. The gate sensors 150' away and down the hill communicate consistently with the YoLink Hub. I use Energizer lithium batteries (2 AA) in the gate sensors because they don't leak and are much longer lasting than any alkaline AA battery. The variety of sensors made by this company is extensive. Where I don't already have in-place sensors and Apps by other companies, I will now consolidate by using YoSmart sensors only. There are some YoSmart leak detection sensors in my future.

Saved us a house flood from dishwasher line. Alarmed at 4 am when the Flood Preventer brand supply line that was a year and a half old, started leaking from the flood prevention cylinder. They don’t even warranty their line but 1 year. This device uses built in alarm and the hub can alert smart phone and e-mail you. I bought this one for a new shower remodel. The 1st hub didn’t work and Yosmart sent another after troubleshooting. It lasted 2 years then no notifications temp sensors offline. Bought another and everything working.

I was having difficulties configuring the YoLink speaker alert. I contacted YoLink customer support and they walked me through the configuration parameters to resolve the problem. They helped me resolve the problem in less than 10 minutes. Very satisfied!!!

This is one of several products I’ve bought from Yolink. I have several water sensors and thermometers as well I use thermometers outside in temperatures that go as low as -30. Over the course of 2 years none of the sensors have malfunctioned and they still have more than 3/4 battery charge. I had a speaker that started glitching after a1.5 years and I when I contacted the company through email they instantly responded and promptly sent a replacement. Highly recommend them

works perfect, easy to setup. batteries been in for over 12months and still going strong. best on market

No se le conecta el detector remoto de la misma marca. Un engaño. Servicio postventa que se desentienden.

This is a high quality product. It works every time. The connection is great. I recommend it to everyone.

Returned another manufacturers device due to it missing remote connectivity. Purchased a YoLink hub and temp sensor and am amazed at the distance based on LoraWan Technology and the functionality including Alexa integration and alerts. It is working thru two metal clad walls reliably for us and very impressed. Only drawback is the fixed length of cord which cannot be disconnected and unsure how long battery will work. The hub is a bit confusing to setup and could be simpler.
