Yep, the Kasa Smart Plug EP10P2 works with Alexa and Google Home.

So, if you've got either of those assistants doing the heavy lifting in your smart home, you're in luck. Based on what we found, setting it up is pretty straightforward. You'll just need to connect it to Wi-Fi using the Kasa app, and then you can control it with voice commands—super easy.

But there's a catch if you're using Apple HomeKit: this plug won't work with it. From what the manufacturer describes, this seems to be because the plug only connects via 2.4G Wi-Fi and doesn't have Bluetooth or Zigbee, which are needed for some HomeKit integrations.

If a seamless Apple setup is what you're after, you might want to keep looking for a plug designed specifically for HomeKit. Our research suggests folks leaning towards Apple's ecosystem often look for that compatibility.

Still, without HomeKit, a lot of people find this smart plug smooth sailing with Alexa and Google Home. One person even mentioned how easy the setup was without having to worry about HomeKit integration.

So, if you're all about Alexa or Google Home, this plug should fit right in.

But if you're an Apple die-hard, make sure to check out other options that support HomeKit. That way, everything gels perfectly with your Apple devices.
