Features 8

  • Home Automation: The smart sensor can control GoveeLife intelligent devices in the same space and automatically turns them on or off when motion is detected. Ideal for areas such as bedrooms, hallways, and bathrooms where hands-free operation is ideal.
  • Detection Range & Trigger Interval: Sensing distance 16-19ft (5-6m), sensing angle 60. The device operates only within the detection range. The adjustable trigger interval (60-180 seconds) prevents unresponsiveness caused by false triggers.
  • Maximum compatibility: The GoveeLife Smart Motion Sensor supports most devices in the Govee Home app. You must own at least one Govee Home WiFi product to deploy your distributed gateway. Connect your devices to enhance your experience.
  • Anti-false alarm function: This device has a trigger detection interval function, which can be adjusted from 60 to 180 seconds (the minimum trigger interval is 60 seconds). This function can ignore your inadvertent movement and make your device run according to your wishes.

Great Addition to a Govee Smart Home Setup
I picked up this GoveeLife wireless motion sensor to automate a few lights in my home, and it's worked very well. Setup was quick through the Govee app, and pairing with compatible GoveeLife devices was straightforward. The sensor responds quickly to motion and has been reliable for automatically turning lights on when entering a room. The wireless range is impressive, allowing me to place it farther from connected devices without connectivity issues. Its compact size also makes it easy to mount discreetly without drawing attention. One feature I really appreciate is the ability to control multiple devices as a group. This makes it easy to create smart home routines without needing a more complicated automation system. Battery life has also been solid so far. Overall, if you're already invested in the GoveeLife ecosystem and want a simple way to add motion-based automation, this sensor is an excellent choice. It's easy to set up, responsive, and works exactly as advertised. ... show more

Another Great Product By Govee
Christmas sales started popping off.. already had a tiny bit of experience with Govee lightbulbs and home automation. For the price point (especially when on sale).. it was a no brainer. The sensor is fairly small, battery already installed… had done my homework and knew I needed the Govee Distributed Gateway in order to best utilize this device; picked up a pair of Govee smart plugs that also act as the necessary hubs. By combining the two, you are able to lint the sensor to the hub/plug and truly take advantage of configuring it automation capabilities. My first one was purchased during that Holliday Sale high… as a result of realizing that for whatever reason I continuously leave the bathroom lights on.. working from home; this means they can and will be on all day and all night unnecessarily. So, this kinda just fell into my lap and everything started sparkling and “Dreamweaver” was faintly heard… it was meant to be. Setup: super freaking easy. Open box. Open App. Hit the + in the app.. bam! Added the sensor and plug hub. Skimmed an article to make sure I understood how their “ Distributed Gateway “ works and how the UI for automation setup is configured. - so I set up the automation to trigger when you step into the bathroom; kicking the lights on automatically and also after a defined time interval turns them back off. Easy peasy.. and as an additional bonus: I now can wake up in the middle of the night or early in the morning and just walk into the Ian’s not have to worry about finding the light switch when I’m not even fully awake; definitely don’t have to worry about hitting the lights on my way back to bed either! Works so well, that I have purchased a second one and configured automation similarly to turn on and also kill the lights in my home office/studio/workbench/tinkering hobby lab. - as I am always busy and strive to take on every task that comes my way. Knowing that I have an extra pair of motion “ eyes “ without relying on cameras to do the same thing that might become a security risk had I gone with a completely different non-Govee solution. Would I or have I suggested this to any one I know OH YES I HAVE!!! *** would I purchase again? — ALREADY HAVE ( in under a 3 weeks) — Planning on picking up a couple more And the special extra I got out of the smart plug.. allows me to control them via the app as well as verbally;via Google Home Assistant. Can’t beat those collective multiple abilities…. And I’m already seeing a noticeable difference in my power bill. Thanks Govee!! For pick him up the ball when others have dropped it and building such an amazing larger ecosystem and GoveeLife. Bringing the larger vision of home automation and such a huge variety of great products and products that allow for such a a flexible application of your offerings and you just can’t beat how easy it is to get the hardware configured. Gone are the days of 15 minute setup per unit and all the frustration that came while dealing with very well known competitor’s products; which unfortunately are slowing all dying out in my home ecosystem. A very pleasant experience. Things work and are accepted openly when they do just one thing: exactly what it says it does with extremely easy setup. ... show more

It just works if you have it turn off the lights after 15 min.
Works well for my need. I was able to set it up to auto turn on lights when I enter the room, I extended the timeout to about 15 to turn off automatically. I wish the app supported iOS proximity so when I enter an area via gps it would turn on like I have with my iHome plug bar. Outside of that you need a subscription to ITTT. This filled that void and allows me to have something that will turn on the lights when I enter the room, and sitting next to the sensor, it doesn't turn off the lights throughout the day until I leave at night. It connects via Wifi with no issues and is very easy to getup. There are a lot more options, but I just needed it to keep the lights on while I'm in the room and it works well for that. I've not had it long enough to understand the battery life, but being able to disable it firing for 15 min should extend the battery life. Its a great value for the money cause it just works. ... show more

Buggy
Works fine within the Govee Home app... but for the life of me I CAN NOT get this to work with Alexa, even though I have other devices linked between the two apps. Idk wtf is wrong with just this motion sensor

great, if you know how it works.
I have a few motion detectors around my house form Hue and SwitchBot, this one from Govee being so much cheaper than the others caught my eye. I tried to look for more info but couldn't seem to find it, but being I own numerous products figured I'd take a chance. Here are my thoughts- 1) if you're not sure if you have a Govee Distributed Gateway, you can do a search within the Govee app to see if you do. 2) this is a Bluetooth only Motion detector, it won't work if you're trying to create routines within Amazon as it's not exposed via WiFi. 3) Once you ubox it and hit the "+" tab on Govee's app, it found it pretty quickly. My main issue was I had to move closer to one of my distributed hub for it to be added. Once I did that it was fine. 4) I set this up quickly once I had it on the app with a set of Govee LED strips in a laundry room. I had no issue getting them to work together. 5) As other's have mentioned unlike routines with Amazon, you'll create a 2nd routine within your initial motion routine. Mine is to turn off the lights 5 minutes after motion was detected. If you already have Govee product and just want to add a motion routine to the lights, at this price it can't be beat. It's roughly half the price of the next well known motion sensor from brands like SwitchBot. ... show more

Works and is very easy to set up
But... It is very laggy. I got two to control the new strip light Pro that i'm placing up the side of my stairs as a night light but as I say, laggy! So easy to set up but it isnt instant on but I do love Govee! I just ordered the plug on ones hoping they react more quickly.

Great addition to Govee specific smart home devices.
This sensor from Govee is a great accessory for smart home devices. Setting up the sensor was very easy. I used double sided, wall safe 3m tape to stick it to the wall in the bathroom above the closet door. It's large enough to be noticeable but small enough to be more discreet depending on your preferred mounting location. It's easy to adjust the angle to point wherever you need it. Using the Govee app made it easy to connect and configure. The battery lasted me almost a year with daily use. NOTE: If you are buying this with the hopes of easily integrating it into another existing smart home setup (for instance, if most of your devices are controlled by Alexa) you will need to know that this sensor is not a standalone sensor for use with other hubs. You must use the Govee app to set up and configure it and it will only control the devices that are connected in your Govee app. I was unable to find a workaround to make it control other non-Govee smart home devices. ... show more

Great product.
This things so easy to use and makes anything possible with smart homes. I set this up for my bathroom to have my govee air cleaner to turn on because my friends stink up the bathroom without turning on any fans, lol. But like i said, super easy to use, hasn’t died and i’ve had it for a while, it’s super small and not visible. You can put it anywhere you want. It also triggers ASAP and is super quick to start up the air cleaner. ... show more
