Some of the best HomeKit gear for making life easier
H omeKit may have fallen behind Amazon Alexa and the Google Assistant in the home–automation market, but there are still enough HomeKit– compatible devices available to create a pretty impressive smart home setup.
The three top product categories in the smart home market are speakers, lights and security cameras. Apple does have a list of HomeKit–compatible devices on its website (apple.co/3WeNNrX) and this includes lots of other devices such as thermostats, controls for fans and air–conditioning systems, smart locks for your front door, and even remote controls for garage doors. However, many of these more complex devices require professional installation — and the last thing you want to do in the middle of the winter is to screw up your heating by trying to wire up a HomeKit thermostat by yourself!
