100% agree on this. There are very few things I want to do on a daily basis from my phone instead of from a physical switch. One exception is controlling my bedroom lights which I do with Hue lights from my bed.

The other thing I want to automate is music to start playing when I enter the bathroom, to give me privacy in there when my girlfriend is home. And that’s the startup I’m working on: https://Loodio.com since there are no other solutions for it out there (that aren’t crap)



Just get a battery powered rotary smart switch and mount it on your nightstand! Game changer


My phone is always with me so it’s just a voice command with Siri of top down swipe to access switch on the phone “dashboard”
