👋, I am trying to figure out something whilst I am working on a problem. What is the biggest problem you have with smart homes right now? (Devices etc)

@bogomep I would love for you to help us shape the future of smart homes, we’re still in the early days and this research will help us understand the problem better. https://forms.gle/PGJRcqyvLQ8wYVscA
You depend 100% on each ecosystem you are using so personalization at a very specific level is harder!

@daniel_leal oh okay. So do you feel if everything is in one place it will make personalisation better? Do you use loads of smart home devices?
@imran_razak I do use Alexa and smart outlets so I can try to turn on and off stuff when I need it! Been looking for more things to add

@daniel_leal Do you feel that if things connected better together that would help?
The mix of ecosystems and in some cases the inability for them to talk to each other

@maxwellcdavis do feel that because devices cannot talk to each other they’re not creating an unanimous connection hence breaking down the connectivity?

@imran_razak It's the unanimous connection. It's the old Google/Apple/Amazon issue
There are too many smart home devices that do not simplify, but complicate the use. Also, some things are not always as effective as they are made out to be. I am satisfied so far only with smart light switches from evvr.io, which give me a great experience in controlling home lighting from my smartphone
