Vokes reunites with head coach Gareth Ainsworth, who he worked with for two years at Adams' Park and reached the League One play-off final in 2022.
"It's great, it's exciting, and I am looking forward to pre-season getting underway," Vokes told the club's website, external.
"I spoke to the manager a few times over the summer, we know each other well. Being right and ready to go on that first game is what it's all about now."
Vokes began his career at Bournemouth before moving to Wolverhampton Wanderers and has also played for Stoke City in a career spanning 19 years.
He made his debut for Wales in 2008 and represented his country at Euro 2016, scoring in a 3-1 win against Belgium.
Smith made 12 appearances in all competitions on loan from Hull last season.
