A smart home goes wrong when it starts with ten gadgets from ten brands. It goes right when it starts with one hub and one annoying problem you want to solve.
Pick the hub first
The hub is what lets devices talk to each other without the internet. The Nestwise Sphere speaker has a Matter and Thread hub built in, so anything with the Matter logo will pair with it.
Start with light
Lighting gives the fastest result. The Nestwise Glow kit is three bulbs that work over Wi-Fi with no extra hardware. Put them in the rooms where you spend evenings and set them to warm up after sunset.
Then the front door
A video doorbell shows who is at the door on your phone and on the kitchen display. It runs on a battery, so no wiring is needed.
Three scenes worth setting up
- Leaving home: lights off, thermostat down, camera on.
- Evening: warm light at 40% an hour before bedtime.
- Someone at the door: the hallway light turns on and the display shows the camera.
If you would rather not do it yourself, book a setup visit with us: it takes about two hours.
