smart home technology

These days, you can truly do anything with the click of a button! You can turn off your home heat from your smartwatch. You can stream music from your tablet. So which apps should you use? Here are the three apps the experts at We Mount TVs recommend for getting the most out of your smart home technology.

#1 Lutron Home Control

Lutron allows you to control many different features within your home that you never had wireless access to before. Control the lighting, your shades, and even your heating and air conditioning, all from one app. With Lutron Home Control, you can customize all of your preferences. For example, you can create a “Vacation” mode that closes your blinds and turns off your lights. You can create a “Bedtime” mode that raises or lowers the shades and the lighting to your ideal preference.

With the app, you can now use voice control and even access it from your Apple Watch. You can schedule lights to turn on and off from a different city. For example, if you forget to turn off your air conditioning when you leave for vacation, there is nothing to worry about! You can access your smart home technology from your phone or tablet and adjust the settings wirelessly.

#2 SONOS

If you are looking for the perfect music app, check out this one because it is free and amazing! SONOS gives you full access to streaming services and endless music libraries. SONOS can truly revamp the way you use your whole home audio system.

With SONOS, you gain access to almost any song you want directly on your mobile device using various streaming sites like Pandora, iHeartRadio, and Spotify. Through the app, each room in your home turns into a “zone.” And each zone can play different music!

Take control of your home listening experience with SONOS smart home technology. Learn more about the SONOS app here.

#3 Savant TrueControl

Savant TrueControl is another free app that provides an incredibly easy-to-use interface. Available on all Apple devices, the Savant TrueControl app gives you remote access via Wi-Fi or cellular data to stream your favorite playlists in any room. Notifications from the app will keep you connected to your home in real time. You can create your own personalized moods like with the SONOS app, and you can allow each of your family members to have their own personal profiles. You can even give guest access to friends or babysitters. The possibilities are endless!
