Do you have connected smart devices in your home?

I wonder about this, the concept now being “smart devices”. A smart device isn’t just connected, it knows when it should be connected, The coffee pot knows to wake up when you wake up, brew coffee and perhaps get the news. Then, when done shut off completely until tomorrow. Do you have smart devices in your home?

I don´t and I don´t need them. But my youngest daughter has a smart pot that starts dinner while she is on her way from work.

They work really well but I do understand not needing them!

@marguicha I can program my oven, but it's not smart, I program the timer and it bates at the desired time.

I prefer to be the only smart device in my home, the "robots" obey to me.

@Alphakremlin I do not even have a smart phone, I have an old dumb phone.

@DocAndersen I bought an automated vacuum cleaner and brought it back after one week. Old style vacuum cleaners still work A LOT better.

Someday that may change - automated vacuum cleaners work really well.

It is an interesting time, I believe the tipping point lies a bit yet in the future.

@DocAndersen Yes, very true! Also they are probably expensive so price is a big deal in buying anything or not.

I just have an Amazon Echo Dot 2 at home. It is a cool device. I use it for entertainment. It is more like a personal assistant which can remind you to do your schedule. It is fun to have it.
