Troubleshoot Connection Issues
- Ensure that your mobile device is connected to the same Wi-Fi network as your Wemo devices. Wemo relies on local Wi-Fi for connectivity.
- Restart your Wi-Fi router to refresh the network connection. Sometimes glitches in the network cause issues in app scheduling.
- Power cycle the Wemo device by unplugging it and plugging it back in to reset its network settings.
Update the Wemo App
- Check the App Store or Google Play Store for updates. An outdated app version may cause scheduling problems due to compatibility issues.
- If there's a new version available, update the app and restart it to see if the issue is resolved.
Check Time and Date Settings
- Ensure that your mobile device and Wemo device have the correct time and date settings, as this can affect scheduling tasks.
- Set your device to automatically update the time and date settings to avoid discrepancies.
Review Schedule Settings
- Open the Wemo app and review the schedule settings. Ensure that the times and days are correctly programmed for each Wemo device.
- Delete incorrect or unused schedules to avoid conflicts. Then, attempt to create a new schedule to test if the app processes it correctly.
Reset the Wemo Device
- If other solutions fail, consider resetting the Wemo device: Use a paperclip to press and hold the reset button on your device for about 5-10 seconds.
- Follow the setup instructions to reconnect the device to your app and Wi-Fi network, then try setting up the schedule again.
Consider App Permissions and Software Conflicts
- Check that the Wemo app has the necessary permissions on your mobile device. It should have permission to access Wi-Fi and run in the background.
- Ensure no new apps or updates conflict with Wemo. Temporarily disable or uninstall recent additions to see if the problem persists.

- If the problem continues, contact Belkin support for expert help. They can provide specific advice based on the device model and issue you're experiencing.
