It’s all about distance.

SwitchBot Contact Sensors is made up of two components that are fixed close to each other on things such as doors and windows. With a detection range of up to 16.4 ft (5m), 90° horizontally, and 55° vertically, any movements that your door or window makes can be detected to help notify you when contact takes place. Just simply align the magnet area with the bottom of SwitchBot Contact Sensor’s main body, and you’re good to go.

Get notifications around the clock.

When connected to SwitchBot Hub Mini, SwitchBot Contact Sensor can push notifications to your phone when someone enters your home, when the window is open, or when your pet leaves its cage. Simply place Contact Sensor on any door or window, and your home security will be taken care of thanks to this helpful first line of defense that can alert you in seconds even when you are away from home.

Take advantage of voice alarms.

When connected to SwitchBot Hub Mini, your smart voice assistant can alert you of events such as when someone enters you home, or when a door is opened. Keeping you on top of things at home no matter whether you’re in a separate room around the house, or when you’re outside. Alexa and Google Home currently do not support Contact Sensor's light level sensor or motion features. However, this feature is currently supported by IFTTT.
