iDevices Connected App Features

All You Need – iDevices products do not require an external hub or subscription fee and work right out of the box with a simple and straightforward connection process. There’s no need for users to even know their Wi-Fi^® password to get set up.

Siri – All of the new iDevices products support Siri, letting users control each directly from an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch using just their voice.

Access Anywhere – Stay connected to your home from wherever you are. iDevices products can be securely accessed and controlled from anywhere using the iDevices Connected app. For HomeKit features, such as Siri voice control, an Apple TV (3rd generation or later) is required for use outside of your home.

Create ‘Scenes’ – With HomeKit, users are able to group multiple products and actions together into what’s called a ‘Scene’. For example, telling Siri “Goodnight” could turn off a bedroom lamp and outdoor lights using the iDevices Switch and iDevices Outdoor Switch, while programming the iDevices Thermostat to a comfortable sleeping temperature.

Create Custom Schedules – Through the iDevices Connected app, users are able to design custom schedules that fit their lifestyle. iDevices products have the unique ability to remember events and make sure they happen even when the user is away.

Energy Reporting – By using the iDevices Switch, homeowners can save money on utility bills. The app shows current wattage draw of each iDevices Switch as well as an average usage per day, giving users the insight they need to make better energy saving decisions daily.

Controlling HomeKit-enabled accessories away from home requires an Apple TV (3^rd generation or later) with Apple TV software 7.0 or later).
