At home
A smart home that is not annoying
The point is not switching everything from an app. The point is that the light switch still works.

What it is about
Smart home devices from different makers often do not talk to each other, and each brings its own app. After the third device it is less clear than before.
We bring the devices under one roof and make sure the important functions keep running when the internet connection drops.
What we usually work with
- Lights and sockets, with switches that keep working
- Heating on a schedule instead of by feel
- Cameras and doorbells, ideally without forced cloud
- One way to control everything instead of six apps
What we watch for
Before anything is bought we settle where the data goes and whether the device keeps working without the manufacturer. With cameras and doorbells that matters most.
