So, I want to make sure that this doesn't sound like trolling..but I'm genuinely interested. I really want to hear a cool idea or understand how this is useful enough for me to spend the money.. Im just not getting it.
How is everyone using homekit and all of these smart devices? Is there actually a use that I am not understanding?
I dont know why I would want color changing lightbulbs, or lights to turn on from my phone... Why do I need to have my thermostat change? I just set it at 72 when I moved in, and then never changed it.
I dont need to unlock/lock my doors when I am on vacation..
The most interesting idea seems to be maybe doing something with the siri plus and maybe the TV? and maybe using a smart plug to automatically turn on/off Christmas Lights like https://www.homedepot.com/p/Outdoor-Apple-HomeKit-Wi-Fi-Smart-Plug-iSP100B4C/303053363
Also, and kinda related, is that isnt a pain in the butt that Google, alexa and Siri are all competing and dont really work together?
Again, just dont know anyone who actually uses this stuff, and I want to hear some ideas from people that are actually using it so I can hear how its helpful.
