WHY SETTLE FOR JUST A ROUTER?? SMART HOME FEATURES Almond 15 is a smart home automation hub with a built in long range router. It is compatible with your favorite smart home devices like Nest, Philips Hue, Yale and all kinds of smart devices like lights, locks, thermostats, door sensors, motion detectors and flood sensors. RULES & AUTOMATION You can use the Almond app to create & edit- schedules and automation rules. It’s easy to create complex automation workflows featuring multiple triggers that in turn prompt multiple actions. Not to get too nerdy here, but this goes beyond simple commands. For example, a rule can be created- so when you arrive home between 6:00 PM and 9:00 PM on weekdays, Almond disarms the alarm, turns on the porch light for 5 minutes and sets the Nest thermostat to 68ºF. AMAZON ECHO If the convenience of controlling your lights and locks from your phone is too taxing, here’s an easier method: control your smart devices with voice commands through the Amazon Echo. For example “Alexa, tell Almond to activate Movie Scene”. So yes, in a manner of speaking, you are able to talk to your house. SMART WIFI That is just half of the things Almond 15 can do. Being a smart WiFi router. Almond app can be used to easily monitor and control your network by receiving push notifications whenever a new device joins your WiFI network. To remove any device you don’t want on your network, instantly block them with the press of a button. With push notifications to your smartphone and tablet, you instantly know who is entering and exiting your home. Curious when your house cleaner, kids, or in-laws arrived or left the house? With Almond, there’s one less question unanswered. PARENTAL CONTROLS Another free feature included with the free Almond app is Parental Controls. Now limiting your kids’ screen time is as easy as pressing a button. Program the same time limits every day or manually control it. For example, you could block Wi-Fi on school nights after 7 PM or decide as you go when to restrict their access to Wi-Fi.
