As people add new smart devices, they’re encountering a new form of digital fatigue. They have to toggle between five different apps to get through the day: dimming lights, locking doors, or pulling up Netflix. Each requires a new interface. This disjointed approach leads to frustration and wasted time.

Instead, what you should aspire to is a system that brings everything together under one roof. That’s what a Control4 control system does. Not only do you unite all the technology in your Denver, CO, home, but you get to choose what you manage it all.

A Smart Home Catered to Your Preferences 

Normally, people associate smart devices with mobile apps. Those are great for some situations, but they shouldn’t be your only options. While the Control4 app is particularly useful when you want to access technology when away from home, the company offers other ways to adjust lighting, AV, and more: 

• Touchscreens: These feature the same interface as your smart home app but are either table or wall-mounted for easy access in certain rooms. 
• Keypads: These replace wall switches and let you manage multiple fixtures at once. Some also incorporate shading, climate, and AV controls. 
• Halo Remote: Ideal for tactile controls in media rooms, it also includes a small touch screen to access lighting, climate, and shade controls.  
• Voice Control: Use your voice assistant of choice to issue natural commands to adjust your technology as needed. 

Dedicated Scenes for Your Go-to Applications  

Do you have a standard morning routine? Do you have a reading nook in the family room you like to relax in after work? Both instances could benefit from preset scenes that pull up your favorite settings. These could happen automatically or be triggered by commands. 

• Good Morning Scene: At your usual wake-up time, the shades open, lights slowly adjust, and a relaxing playlist or newscast plays through your in-ceiling speakers. 
• Reading Scene: Press a button on your keypad to lower overhead lights, close the shades, and turn on a desk lamp by the couch. 
• Away Scene: This one can be activated by schedule or using a keypad at the front door. It automatically closes all shades, locks the doors, turns off lights, and sets your alarm. 

Stick With Your Favorite Smart Devices 

A lot of people think home automation platforms like Control4 force you into rigid environments. But Control4 plays nice with over 14,000 devices. So stick with those beautiful third-party shades or your Sony receiver if you’ve grown to love them. 

Since Control4 is hardware-agnostic, it’s easy to add new devices down the line, too. We’ll advise you on which products work best with your system. Sometimes sticking with what you like is best, but sometimes we recommend better options. It’s all part of our process.
