    That’s a very good point but could you also tell me why do you need a smart home? I don’t understand the point of it

      Same reason a remote control is handy for a TV — convenience.

      Motion or presence sensing. Timers. Virtual buttons. Physical buttons in places I wouldn’t normally have them. Garage door opening automagically when I pull in the driveway with a specific vehicle. Etc.

      Plus I get to check in on my kitty from far away.
