Apple pointed me to what I’ve come to call a smart home starter kit. It’s a smart plug that lets you control lamps, heaters, fans and other devices from your Home app. To be clear, the iHome smart plug is also compatible with Nest, Amazon Alexa, and Smart Things. Peep the video at the top of the page for a glimpse at what it’s like to live in Apple’s version of the smart home.
Apple is racing against Amazon and Google to try to get the masses to adopt the smart home. Unlike Amazon and Google, Apple isn’t manufacturing its own devices — with the exception of the Apple TV that acts as a hub. Instead, it’s mostly relying on third-party manufacturers to make their devices compatible with its HomeKit system, and then unite all of those devices through a deep integration with iOS via the Home app.

Personally, I would really appreciate a smart home and office and car! I love apple. I think they need to host their own products, apple everything from stoves to toilet bowls. A smart vacuum and garbage removal. Apple personal robots. I'm in the future ages ahead of some people. Click the links to support this page.
