PowerSwitch can control your 433mhz power plugs using your smartphone. It supports multiple brands and models, e.g. Brennenstuhl, Intertechno, Elro, Mumbi, Pollin, Vivanco (but not Home Easy, as they use an encrypted protocol we have no access to).
The app supports multiple gateways, scenes, group switches, automation and works together with other apps like Sleep As Android, Llama, Tasker plus your Android Wear watch.
Anti-Features: NonFreeAdd(the application promotes non-free add-ons):
⇒ The app uses a Locale plugin for automation.NonFreeComp(the application includes non-free components):
⇒ The app contains libraries of Google Mobile Services and Google Play.NonFreeNet(this application promotes/depends a non-Free network service):
⇒ The app connects to Google servers (Play Store).
While you can download the APKs here directly, you should preferably use an F-Droid client so the app stays up-to-date on your device. Some clients have this repo enabled by default, e.g. Neo Store, Droid-ify, or, of course, the IzzyOnDroid client by Sunil. With others (like the official client) you'll have to add this repo manually (see the hint on top of the package list for how to do that).
