apparently lamps is the primary use
Or to turn off an appliance or heating element (i.e. flat iron).
One of my smart outlets is specifically for the wife's flat iron and I have it set to turn off every day at 8 just in case she leaves it on when leaving for work.

My MIL is always worried about leaving hers on (and the oven, stove, etc), but the problem is she is retired so she uses hers at different times of the day. So I had the idea that smart outlets could be much smarter than they currently are, and also we should be seeing a lot more smart devices that make homes safer.
Remote control via app and setting timers manually is nice, but ideally the outlet itself should be smarter about detecting what is plugged into it, and being able to cut power on its own.
