Switchy is an app that lets you control certain smart home devices called WEMO switches directly from your Apple Watch. Instead of pulling out your phone to turn a lamp on or off, you can just tap your wrist. WEMO devices are smart plugs and switches made by Belkin that let you control household electronics over your Wi-Fi network. Normally you'd control them through a phone app or a voice assistant. Switchy gives you a faster, more convenient way to do it by putting that control on your watch. The project works alongside a companion piece of software called java-wemo-bridge. That bridge runs on a computer or server somewhere on your home network and acts as a middleman, translating between your Apple Watch and the WEMO devices. Switchy itself is written in Swift, which is the programming language used for Apple platforms, so it's built specifically for the Apple Watch ecosystem. Someone who already has WEMO smart plugs around the house and wears an Apple Watch would find this useful. For example, you could turn off a living room lamp from across the room without reaching for your phone, or switch off a fan from bed. The README is very sparse and doesn't go into detail about setup, features, or limitations. There's no information on whether it supports multiple devices, scheduling, or any configuration options beyond basic on/off control. If you're curious about the companion bridge software, you'd need to look at its own repository for more context.
