11 months agoI will present an answer different from most of the other responders of how I was able to integrate automation in my home.
While I am pro-automation, my spouse was less excited. So I started small. I already had an echo dot in a room with the main light switch in an inconvenient place. Using a smart plug activated by voice command was accepted by her as an clear improvement.
After a year, I installed smart bulbs into my garage lights. Again, the original physical switch was in an inconvenient location so the activation by voice was accepted.
I have since replaced many bulbs and setup routines. My spouse only uses voice, and will not use the app.
Don’t forget the garage or attic.
