Short description

Shelly Plus Uni (the Device) is a small form factor smart universal module featuring two solid state relays with potential free contacts, pulse counter, analog and two digital inputs. It allows remote control of electrical devices via mobile phone, tablet, PC or home automation system. It can operate standalone on a local Wi-Fi network or it can also be controlled via cloud-based home automation services.

Shelly Plus Uni can be accessed, controlled, and monitored remotely from any place where the User has internet connectivity, as long as the device is connected to a Wi-Fi router and the Internet.

Shelly Plus Uni has an embedded Web Interface which can be used to monitor and control the device, as well as adjust its settings.

What are the differences between the different generations of Shelly products?

Each new generation adds more power, memory, and features:

Gen 1 offers basic control;

Gen 2 (Plus Series, Mini Series, Pro Series) adds Bluetooth, scripting, and better security;

Gen 3 improves performance, adds Matter (starting from firmware version 1.6.0 or newer) and advanced monitoring;

Gen 4 offers multi-protocol connectivity, featuring Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth, Zigbee, and Matter.

Can I control the device via Bluetooth?

No, the protocol is used only for device inclusion, allowing for quick and easy setup through the Shelly Smart Control app.

For bluetooth control it is required to have another Bluetooth device such as Shelly BLU Button or Shelly BLU Motion to interact.

Additionally, Shelly devices can function as a BLE gateway, bridging Shelly BLU devices to your Wi-Fi network.

Is it possible to use the device without a hub?

Yes, Shelly devices (except for Wave devices) operate independently without the need for a hub. They connect directly to your Wi-Fi network, and you can control them via the Shelly Smart Control app, web interface, or through integrations with platforms like Google Home, Alexa, Home Assistant and Samsung SmartThings.
