Key Features
Bedroom Climate at a Glance
Big easy-to-read LCD shows temperature and humidity at the same time, with a smiley face icon that tells you instantly if you’re in the comfort zone.
Two Years of Historical Data
The SwitchBot app stores temperature and humidity history so you can correlate sleep quality with bedroom conditions over weeks or months.
Custom Alerts
Set thresholds, if humidity dips below 35% in winter or temperature climbs above 72° in summer, the app pings you so you can fix it before bed.
Triggers Other Devices
Paired with a SwitchBot Hub, the Meter Plus can turn on a humidifier, fan, or AC when readings drift out of range. Hands-off bedroom regulation.
Our Experience
We put the Meter Plus on a nightstand for two weeks. The first surprise was that our bedroom was running 73-74 degrees overnight despite the thermostat being set to 68, the upstairs heat trap most older houses have. The historical graph in the SwitchBot app made the problem obvious in a way a single thermostat reading never did.
After dropping the bedroom temp to 65 (sleep researchers’ sweet spot) and adding a small humidifier we triggered via SwitchBot routine, sleep quality scores on our Whoop went up two days later. The Meter Plus isn’t doing anything magical, it’s just giving you the data and the trigger system to fix bedroom climate without thinking about it.
