The good news: Geeni devices are cheap, and they run on Tuya, one of the largest smart home platforms.
The bad news: Almost everything depends on the cloud, so an outage stops app and voice control.
If you own Geeni devices
- Keep a regular switch or plug for important lights.
- Know that cameras need the internet for live view.
