To use the ORVIBO S20 smart socket in the UK without a working app, you can try the following methods:
1. ESP8266 as an Access Point: - Use an ESP8266 module to act as the access point for the S-20, bypassing the need for a router. - Configure the ESP8266 to communicate directly with the socket for control.
2. Home Assistant Integration: - Configure the S20 in Home Assistant by setting its IP and MAC address manually if auto-discovery fails. - Ensure the socket was initially set up using the HomeMate app before integrating with Home Assistant.
3. Alternative Control Methods: - If the socket supports local network communication, try using a third-party smart home system that can send commands to it. - Use a packet-sniffing tool to capture commands from the official app and replicate them using a custom script.
If none of these methods work, a factory reset and reconfiguration using the app might be necessary before attempting alternative control methods.
