One of the perils of smart home devices is that they can reach obsolescence far sooner than their non-smart counterparts, as their companies decide that it's no longer worth the expense to support them.
Such is the case with about two dozen Wemo smart home devices ranging from coffee makers to smart light switches and plugs. Belkin, Wemo's parent company, sent out an email saying that it would no longer support the products, effective January 31, 2026.
"After careful consideration, we have made the difficult decision to end technical support for older Wemo products, effective January 31, 2026," reads the email.
After that date, the Wemo app used for these devices will no longer be supported, any features that rely on the cloud — such as remote access and voice assistant integrations — will no longer work, and Belkin will no longer offer technical support or troubleshooting assistance.

As you can see from the list, all of the products are at least six years old, but many should still be functioning well — I'm still using the Wemo CrockPot, for instance, and other Wemo devices have graced our best smart light switches and best smart plugs pages.
The email further states that, if the product is still under warranty as of January 31, you could be eligible for a partial refund.
Also, Wemo devices that have been configured to work with HomeKit should still be able to function as normal.
For more information, Belkin has set up a FAQ if you have any more questions.
