How to make a smart home for $200

When u said google play this it stated playing music

Can you please edit out when you say "hey google"?!

Why wouldn’t u just buy it

The chart is not correct. You can also use wifi repeaters, zigbee doesn't have a higher range than wifi.

mouses.

Great! Now can you tell me how to make one for $20? 😭

Been looking for a video like this. Thanks

home assistant is excelent for a sort of cheap integration with some tech savyness required

Question if I get a smart plug can i plug in a surge protector to it to control my tv and my ps4 and my stereo system.

pls dont do this go buy some lights on aliexpress they are the same quality and only 5 bucks a piece

If you want to make your lights smarter, don't just jump out and buy these smart bulbs immediately. There is a smart light switches you can buy, including one from SimplySmart Home that just fits over your existing light switch (models included for both switches and toggles) so you can use your Google Home or whatever to turn on your lights that way. And with the money you saved, you can also buy smart plugs that basically fit into your existing plugs already that you can set up (separately if you wish) to control your fan or your humidifier or whatever buy just leaving them on, and using Google or Alexa to effectively shut the power to those devices.
And both one light switch and one plug (fits both plugs on your standard outlet) costs only $40.

Hi your a tech master

Your smarter than Google/Alexa

Does the Google Home Mini still work if the WiFi goes down?

I have several devices installed in my home, including Hue lights, smart outlets, Harmony remote, chromecast, chromecast audio (3), several Google home devices (GH hub, GH, 3 minis) and kind of a mish-mash of umbranded devices. I am finding it a challenge to manage all the apps for the devices, however. While the Google Home app will, ultimately, control all the devices, setup is a bit of a mess. For example, I recently upgraded my phone and some of the devices needed to be reinstalled through their specific app, to return to full function. Once installed, I do not return to the app, as Google takes over, but, might there be a 'universal' app which might provide an interface for a more broad control? I've tried IFTTT with some success in setting up specific tasks or events.

While a good video, it's way out of date. The Verge needs to update.

You’re a smart person, why are you ok with google listening in on everything you say in your house, it’s been proven that they are listening to you, that’s not something you should just “get used to”

You are so sweet

GooooooooooD Job

People are lazy and want easy access to everything, I don't want them in my house. I only want cameras to see who is approaching and hanging around my home before they enter. I don't need an invasion of privacy because hackers are perverts want to see or hear you coming out of the shower. cover your tv cameras and computer. Lucky me I have no tv and I really don't want one. I prefer those old that I don't have to worry about people coming into my room from outside gadgets.

I have the nest and its great but too many notifications of cats and my neighbors going for their hose all the time. I want to see strangers, not cats

What happened to audio sir?

Sorry I found my audio in blue tooth.

why did google remove the chromecast audio

omg you guys, my favorite thing about this video is the b e a u t i f u l table that record player is on. It looks rustic, as if made by some craftsman

Me: getting a Mi Smart Bulb for 15€

Good video , i have 10 TP-Link smart plugs , three TP-Link smart switches and an Ecobee smart thermostat in my home , i also have four Echo devices and an Echo Show Eight and every runs very well .

In 2021 the echo show 5” is also 49.99. Totally more useful and easier than the google without a screen 🤙🏼👍🏼 you’re welcome.

The NSA loves this guy.
