Keep it flexible
As the smart home market grows, more and more companies are adding support for the most popular virtual assistants, but some accessories don't always play well between platforms. If you like to switch between Android and iOS, your smart home accessories need to be just as flexible to ensure that you can dim your lights or change the temperature remotely.
For smart lighting, we love the Lutron Caseta Wireless Smart Lighting Dimmer Switch Starter Kit as it not only works with Alexa and HomeKit, but it also works with the Google Assistant for even more flexibility. Lutron's Caseta lineup also happens to be one of the fastest responding, most reliable, smart home systems around, and this kit provides everything you need to get started.
Want to take things even further? Then check out the ecobee SmartThermostat. This smart solution works with all of the major smart home platforms, and it even has Alexa built-in! It gives you another handy location within the home to control your accessories with just your voice, and it can work with HomeKit's powerful automations to make your heating and cooling schedule completely automatic.
