Using one’s phone or voice to flip a light switch may be convenient since you don’t need to get up. For the author and other disabled people, this makes it accessible.
When it comes to smart home technology, what many reviewers and users may see as convenience, other people see as accessibility. In other words, using one’s phone or voice to flip a light switch may be convenient for you because you don’t need to get up. For me and other disabled people, this makes it accessible. The best illustration of this concept involves the AmazonBasics microwave. The Alexa-powered device was admittedly a bit gimmicky.
One downside to using HomeKit is that the Nest products we have — a Nest Thermostat E, Nest Protect smoke alarm, Nest x Yale smart lock, Nest Hello doorbell, and two Nest Cam IQ outdoor cameras — don’t natively support it. These are all older products that predate the Matter standard that ostensibly promises interoperability between smart home platforms. But we don’t want or need to replace it — however dated our Nest gear is, it all continues to work great, especially in the original Nest app.
