NanoleafSense+ Smart Light Switch with Built-in Motion & Daylight Sensors, Matter Early Access, Exclusive for Nanoleaf Smart Lights, Dimmer, Wire-Free, 2 Configurable with Up to 6 Custom Actions

I have a few different Nanoleaf products in my home and one day when I was playing around in the app creating some new scenes, I started clicking around the app and noticed a section for “control groups” which said that you can connect lights with Sense+ switches together. I looked it up and for the price I decided to try it out, and honestly this switch has been a fantastic addition to my lighting system because it allows me to be more hands-free but still get what I want. First things first: Installation? What installation? The back of the switch holder comes with double-sided tape or two strong magnetic pads for a renter-friendly option, and the switch connects to the app very easily by scanning a little QR code on the back of it. Once you select which devices you want to connect the switch to, you get a quick tutorial on the basic functions and from there you get to customize what the side buttons do and you’re done. Two features I have really been enjoying are the motion and daylight sensors. The motion sensor has changed my morning routine - I can walk into my kitchen in the very early morning when it is still dark in my home and get a gentle, sunrise-y glow going while I am making my coffee without having to even care about where my phone is or press any buttons, it really helps me wake up in the morning. The daylight feature plays into this routine perfectly, because I don’t even have to think about turning my lights off to conserve energy during the day and turning everything back on at night, I just go about my day and Nanoleaf does the thinking for me. If you have a few Nanoleaf products in your home, I highly recommend purchasing the Sense+ switch. Such a little device makes such a big impact in allowing you to think less and do more!

i love that it sticks to metal surfaces, so I just put it on my kitchen fridge and it stuck there very securely. i use it for the motion sensor to turn on my kitchen lights when i walk in, and it turns the lights off when no one is there. I haven't touched my light switches in a couple of weeks now! my kids like to play with the switch and change it to multi colored scenes for impromptu dance parties, so that's been a nice added bonus feature that I was not expecting. So far it's been a great addition to my home, might get another one for my bathroom so I don't need to fumble for the light at night.

I’ve been adding more Nanoleaf products to my home, so I picked up the smart light switch to tie everything together. Setup was a breeze, no wiring, just stick the mount to the wall with tape or magnets, and scan the QR code to connect it in the app.I love how the motion and daylight sensors work seamlessly. My lights now turn on gently when I walk into the room early in the morning, and stay off during the day if there’s enough sunlight. The customizable buttons are super handy, letting me control quickly. It’s a small device but makes a big difference in convenience.

5/6/25:I ended up getting the Aqara Wireless Mini Switch and the Aqara Smart Hub M3. Together they work great! Easy setup in Aqara's app and in Apple's Home app; the switch is quality; button clicks control my Nanoleaf bulbs quickly and reliably.4/16/25:Promising, but fundamentally flawed. The switch pairs quickly with the Nanoleaf app, but it won't allow me to control any Nanoleaf bulb.To do that, in the app you have to create a group that includes the switch and your bulb. When I try to create that group, I keep getting an error message that the switch can't be found, even though it's right there in the app, paired nicely, and able to be configured through the Devices screen in the app. I have tried resetting and re-pairing the switch multiple times with the app, but it always gets stuck when creating a group. Something must be broken.A workaround was adding it to Apple Home and configuring the two side buttons to turn a Nanoleaf bulb on and off, but you can't use the on and off button on the switch to do that; you have to use the side buttons. So weird and complicated. And it only added itself to Apple Home once. Subsequent attempts only spun forever at "connecting".I think there's something wrong with the device's firmware or the app. It doesn't feel like a hardware problem because the switch works well when I managed to navigate the labyrinth to get two buttons working.Speaking of hardware, this remote feels cheap. The buttons float around in their place and the click feels unsatisfyingly cheap. If you remove the battery in the back (not obvious how to do that and no instructions) and replace it, it often pushes the buttons on the front side out of place until you position the battery just so. Lutron makes quality switches. This ain't that.Disclaimer: I've been in tech for many years and have a solid, reliable, fast thread network at home. I know what I'm doing with smart home gadgets.I'd steer clear of this remote for now. It feels like a rush job, despite being in the making for a few years. Such a shame. I expected quality from Nanoleaf.Seems any wireless thread/Matter switch as of April 2025 is flaky and doesn't perform reliably. The only reliable one I've found is Lutron's Pico remote. Rock solid. But it has zero Matter/Apple Home integration. Switchbot has a Matter one, but it's terribly slow to respond. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I have this paired with my floor lamp and when I walk into my room the lamp automatically lights up, but if the room is already bright then the lamp won't turn on. Always great when you feel like Tony Stark for a second.The remote plate uses double sided tape, there are screw holes if you want to screw. The remote uses magnets to stick to the plate. Very simple, no drilling necessary. There are settings in the app to modify what each button does, and if you want the motion sensor on or not.The potential this little thing can bring... I need to buy more lights

I’ve tried a handful of smart home devices, but this one takes the cake for ease of use. It didn’t require any technical know-how and connected with my other nanoleaf devices like magic. It’s great how customizable the actions are. But the best part is that it’s battery powered and can be placed anywhere. The motion sensor makes it so that the lights turn on without having to touch anything. It’s made my space feel way more high-tech with minimal effort! Love it!
