QUOTE(idoblu @ Dec 27 2016, 09:07 AM) like i said it will never be. internet can be down anytime. If only internet connection then still ok. I have been rely on internet for many other things, so far ok la.you are not going to use your smart plug to turn on some life saving incubator or whatnots....so dont worry about it What i worry more is the hardware or software immature nature kind of thing. |

QUOTE(prasys @ Dec 24 2016, 02:18 PM) Bought all xiaomi stuff Hi, can you provide links or some guide how you configure them to work with siri?Managed to get it up and running ! Now it works with Siri as well and it can control The app is in Engrish , but its a lousy app. Good for pairing and enabling developer mode. After that you can use homebridge + homekit + Siri to control and automate it Now I need to replace the light switch Also, did you manage to get google now working with xiaomi hub? Just starting to have interest on getting voice commands to work with automated device after seeing some videos people using tasker app and combo with harmony hub |

I saw this Sony Qrio Smart Lock at the Sony Building Ginza. It cost 18000 Yen which is about Rm700
Its very easy to install but unfortunately it doesnt fit my locks. My thumb turner is round instead of flat. And its is not convenient to take out smartphone to unlock doors as compare to conventional keys It has auto lock but no auto open. If only it can sense Im approaching and unlocks itself when it pairs with the smartphone But I like the idea of "sharing" the key with another person This post has been edited by idoblu: Dec 30 2016, 06:32 PM |

Depending how the nas is access loh, sometime maybe due to house pc downloading and got Trojan.
Back to so called smart hokes, Actually, smart home is overrated. Smart is not the word to use. Is just bunch of sensor operate base on the logic someone program inside. It should be called programed home, not smart. |
