It is also easy to secure your home with, for example, cameras or smart doorbells. With the smart devices, everything in the house is seamlessly connected.

Control from a distance

You experience the ultimate convenience when you can control devices from a distance. Want to know which devices you need for this? We will tell you.

Everyone has probably heard of the voice control programs Alexa from Amazon and Siri from Apple. In 2016, Google also launched its own voice assistant called: Google Assistant.

The Google Nest mini is a smart speaker with built-in voice control. Through Google Nest Mini, you can perform searches, control lights and thermostats, control music, make appointments, send messages, make calls, access apps and much more from a distance.
