⭐ 1 Star – Constantly Disconnecting, Not Reliable (Engineer’s Review)As an electrical engineer, I bought the Aziot Smart IR Blaster hoping to integrate it with my smart home setup using the Smart Life app. It seemed promising, and the ratings looked decent. Unfortunately, the actual experience has been extremely frustrating and disappointing.⚙️ Setup & Initial Impression:Device connected easily to 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi (Smart Life app).Powered using a genuine Apple 5W adapterThe device was placed just near to my router — full signal strength, no network congestion.Initially worked fine for a few hours, controlling IR appliances like TV and AC.❗ Core Problems:The device frequently goes offline in the Smart Life app, sometimes within hours of setup.Becomes completely unresponsive, requiring a manual power cycle to bring it back.There is no load connected — it only emits IR signals, so power consumption is minimal.I confirmed that Wi-Fi signal was not the issue — every other device near it stays online without problems.🔍 Troubleshooting Done:Verified power supply using different cables and adapters (all stable).Reserved a static IP via router DHCP settings.Changed Wi-Fi channels to avoid interference.Disabled AP/client isolation on router.Reinstalled the app, reset the device multiple times, and checked for firmware updates.After all of this, the problem still persists. The device continues to randomly go offline and remains unusable until manually reset.🛠 Technical Observations:Likely caused by firmware instability or poor memory management on the device.No local fallback or direct control options — fully cloud-dependent.Possibly overheating or stuck in a loop due to low-quality hardware components.No error reporting or logging options available, which makes troubleshooting a black box.📉 Final Verdict:This IR blaster is simply not reliable for everyday smart home use. Even under perfect conditions (stable power, excellent Wi-Fi, minimal device load), it fails repeatedly. If you rely on this for automation — like turning on the AC or TV remotely — it will let you down.⚠️ Recommendation:If you’re serious about a smart home setup, skip this device. Look for ESP8266/ESP32-based IR blasters that can run ESPHome or Tasmota, or consider brands like BroadLink which have better long-term stability and user control.Rating: 1/5Summary: Frequent disconnections, zero reliability, and very poor firmware. Not suitable for smart home use unless these issues are fixed.

I initially received a defective unit that wouldn’t power on, but the seller promptly replaced it within a day. The after-sales support was excellent.The product itself is impressive. It connects seamlessly to 2.4GHz WiFi via the Smartlife app. I’ve integrated it with an Atomberg fan, a Whirlpool AC, and a Panasonic AC. It allows me to control the on/off functions, temperature, fan speed, and cooling mode on both ACs. For the fan, it supports basic on/off functionality out of the box. However, to enable speed control, I set up scenes in the Smartlife app for different speeds and then used Alexa routines to trigger specific scenes based on voice commands. Now, it works perfectly.Overall, I'm satisfied with this purchase.

This smart IR blaster works well for basic remote control functions, but it lacks some options like timers and scheduling. It's easy to set up and use, but the limited features might not meet the needs who are looking for more control . Overall, it's a decent, but it falls short for those seeking more options or features

It was good and we have proper response from the technical team for any technical installation

The media could not be loaded. The AZIOT IR Blaster is a compact, user-friendly device that centralizes control of all your infrared appliances. Positioned centrally, it integrates seamlessly with smart devices via the Smart Life app and supports voice commands through Google Assistant and Alexa. This functionality allows for the creation of custom routines and automations, enhancing convenience. Traditional remotes often cost over ₹300 and require battery replacements, whereas the AZIOT IR Blaster eliminates these hassles by managing multiple devices from a single, secure location. Its learning mode further enables the creation of personalized remotes within the app, offering a versatile and cost-effective solution for smart home management.To enhance its versatility, incorporating compatibility with Bluetooth-based remotes would enable control over a broader range of modern devices, providing a unified solution for both IR and Bluetooth-controlled appliances.

Does the job as expected. Easy of setup and use.
