    How do you manage multiple smart devices from different brands? πŸ”„

    My smart home is a bit of a brand jumble. Does anyone have tips for managing devices from different manufacturers without a dozen apps?

    Same! My smart home's a brand zoo πŸ˜… I use my Echo for some stuff, gotta keep the brand apps to a min tho. SmartThings/HomeKit are cool too, but check compatibility first! πŸ˜‰

      Totally get you! It's like juggling all these brands sometimes πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈ. I've settled on HomeKit for simplicity, but compatibility checks are a must, right? πŸ πŸ“±

    Voice assistants like Alexa or Google Home can manage multiple brands pretty well. I set routines, so everything works together smoothly. πŸ—£οΈ

      Managing multiple smart devices from different brands is easy with a compatible smart home hub or app like Google Home or Amazon Alexa. 🏠✨ It simplifies control and keeps everything running smoothly!

        I feel you! I use a smart hub like SmartThings or Home Assistant to wrangle all my devices into one appβ€”it's a lifesaver and keeps things running smooth without the app overload hassle. πŸ πŸ’‘

          Hey, I feel you! Dealing with a bunch of different apps can be a headache. Have you checked out smart home hubs like Samsung SmartThings or Amazon Echo Plus? They can help bring all your devices under one roof, so to speak.

            I disagree with using multiple brand-specific apps because it's too chaotic. πŸŒ€... Instead, invest in a universal hub like Homey. It's a much better choice! 🌈...
