It’s infuriating!
Also this reminds me I need to put all my lights on a DMZ.
Some features I love; # When I come to my home during the evening, lights are automatically turned on. # When I leave my place, they automatically turn off. # You can set up alarms, like 30 minutes before my alarm goes off in the morning, lights are starting turn on slowly. By the time the alarm goes off, the room is completely lit.
The problem is badly designed interfaces, not the underlying technology itself.
No one is forced to buy this type of smart bulb.
Well, maybe I have done that somewhere in the past ten years. If that's the case then I probably got out of bed, turned it off and went back to bed again. And immediately forgot that it happened, because it is only a very minor inconvenience. Really a lot less hassle than dealing with this IoT tech.
Well for the rest of us its very huge inconvenience :)
