If you ask Google Assistant to open the newest episode of a TV series you are watching right now, it will take you through all of the steps so you can watch the show without clicking or finding it manually.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b><strong>Siri <\/strong><\/b><\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Siri can handle simple questions and commands requested, but when asked a more complex question, its search engine has greater difficulty finding the right answer. There are instances where Siri appears to stop and lag momentarily before answering your question.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The short test found that Siri answers almost as quickly as Google Assistant, but most of its information comes from Wikipedia. This is not bad per se, but Wikipedia's depth of knowledge is unable to compete with Google's resources.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Siri also struggled with intricate command sets where, unlike Google, it could not record a video or launch the newest episodes of a tv series from Netflix. Instead, it only opened the app and stopped there, forcing you to manually find the episodes instead.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b><strong>Bixby <\/strong><\/b><\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bixby can handle as many questions and commands as Google Assistant. Bixby boasts a variety of impressive integrations, an area that Samsung has specifically sought to capitalise on<br \/>with its voice assistant.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bixby can follow intricate commands similar to Google Assistant, like recording a video or launching an app to watch a TV show. The only downside of Bixby is that it's solely available on Samsung devices, whereas Google Assistant can operate on a range of platforms such as Android, Chrome, Wear OS or through its app for iPhone and iPad.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b><strong>Alexa <\/strong><\/b><\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is ironic that Alexa was the first voice assistant in the market, but has struggled to keep up with newer competitors today.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Alexa was the first mover in the realm of voice assistants which is a merit in itself. However, when asked complex questions and to perform complex tasks like taking a selfie or starting a voice recording, Alexa did not perform as well as Google Assistant and in some instances, Bixby to perform the tasks.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b><strong>XiaoAI <\/strong><\/b><\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One of the newest contenders in the voice controller market is Xiaomi's Xiao AI. A product that has been ten years in the making, the voice assistant is currently only available in China but there are plans for expansion to the rest of the world.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Xiao AI is a great voice assistant as it works within the entire Xiaomi ecosystem. Xiao AI is not only able to answer simple questions but it can integrate with all Xiaomi home appliances (similar<br \/>to Alexa integrating with Amazon devices or Siri with Apple devices) and even clock in at work or translate something almost simultaneously.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b><strong>Languages<\/strong><\/b><\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you compare the number of languages supported by each voice assistant, Siri comes out at the top as it currently supports 21 languages, while Xiao AI comes in last place as it is currently only available in Mandarin.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For more details on the different languages supported by each voice assistant refer to the list below:<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b><strong>Siri <\/strong><\/b>currently supports 21 languages:<br \/>Arabic, Cantonese, Danish, Dutch,Finnish, English, French, German, Hebrew, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Malay, Mandarin, Norwegian, Portuguese, Russian, Spanish, Swedish, Thai, and Turkish<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b><strong>Google Assistant<\/strong><\/b> supports 12languages:<br \/>Danish, Dutch, English, French,German, Hindi, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Norwegian, Spanish, and Swedish.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b><strong>Alexa <\/strong><\/b>currently supports8 languages: <br \/>English, French, German, Hindi,Italian, Japanese, Portuguese, and Spanish.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b><strong>Bixby <\/strong><\/b>currently supports3 languages: <br \/>Korean, US English, and SimplifiedChinese<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b><strong>XiaoAI <\/strong><\/b>currently supportsonly mandarin.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b><strong>The Home A Genius Difference<\/strong><\/b><\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a style=\"font-weight: inherit;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.homeagenius.sg\/\" data-type=\"\"><b><strong>Home-A-Genius<\/strong><\/b><\/a> gives you the flexibility to use Google, Alexa and Siri all at once; allowing<br \/>different family members to use their favourite voice controllers in their respective rooms.

For example, if you forgot to turn off your TV when you leave the house, a smart hub can do it for you. Similarly, if you're not home and someone else needs to use the TV, they can simply turn it on using the smart hub. This convenience results in less energy waste because TVs and other devices aren't left on standby mode when they're not being used.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"s-block-item s-repeatable-item s-block-sortable-item s-blog-post-section s-narrow-margin blog-section\"><div class=\"container\"><div class=\"sixteen columns\"><div class=\"s-blog-section-inner\"><div class=\"s-component s-text\"><div class=\"\"><div class=\"s-component-content s-font-body\"><p>In addition to conserving energy, smart hubs also help reduce <a href=\"https:\/\/news.un.org\/en\/story\/2022\/01\/1109322\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-type=\"web\"><u><strong>\"greenhouse gas emissions\"<\/strong><\/u><\/a>. For example, if you have a smart thermostat, you can program it to turn off when you're not home or when you're asleep. This helps significantly as it helps save energy and money on your heating and cooling bills. Smart hubs also allow people to recycle materials more efficiently. For example, if you have a smart trash can, you can set it to notify you when it's full so that you can take your trash to the dumpster instead of waiting until it's overflowing.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"s-block-item s-repeatable-item s-block-sortable-item s-blog-post-section s-narrow-margin blog-section\"><div class=\"container\"><div class=\"sixteen columns\"><div class=\"s-blog-section-inner\"><div class=\"s-component s-text\"><div class=\"\"><div class=\"s-component-content s-font-body\"><p>But, it is not as simple as just installing a smart hub.

How do they work? What are their benefits? These are just some of<br \/>the questions that we will answer in this comprehensive guide to smart locks.<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In this post, we will discuss the different types of smart locks available on<br \/>the market, how they work, and what their benefits are. We will also provide<br \/>tips for choosing the right smart lock for your needs. So whether you're just starting to research smart locks or ready to buy one, this post has everything you need!<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Smart locks are becoming increasingly popular due to their convenience and security<br \/>benefits. Smart locks use a combination of traditional locks and digital<br \/>technologies to provide users with unparalleled control over access to their<br \/>homes or business. With the right smart lock, you can grant or deny entry<br \/>remotely, set up automatic locking schedules, receive alerts when someone<br \/>attempts to access your property, and more.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b><strong>Gain Peace Of Mind By Locking And Unlocking Your Door From Anywhere<\/strong><\/b>\u00a0<\/p><p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/homeagenius.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Unlock-The-Best-Features-Of-Smart-Locks-1.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"267\" \/><\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Smart locks offer the convenience of being able to lock or unlock your door from<br \/>anywhere with a smartphone. All you need is a WiFi connection and you can use<br \/>an app on your phone to see who has entered and left, grant access to visitors,<br \/>and even receive real-time alerts whenever someone tries to access your<br \/>property.<\/p><p><br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/xeno.com.sg\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Xeno Smart Locks<\/strong><\/a> offer cutting-edge technology and sleek design, providing enhanced security and convenience for modern homes. With features like face recognition, fingerprint access, and remote control, Xeno Smart Locks ensure peace of mind while seamlessly fitting into your lifestyle. Experience the perfect blend of safety and <span style=\"background-color: var(--wd-main-bgcolor); color: var(--wd-text-color); font-size: 16px;\">style with Xeno.<\/span><br \/><br \/><\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Robbers would think twice if they know you have a smart lock with advanced security<br \/>features that would alert you of any suspicious activity. You can also set up<br \/>automated schedules that lock and unlock your door at designated times.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b><strong>Never Worry About Losing Your Key Again <\/strong><\/b>\u00a0<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Smart locks eliminate the need for physical keys, so you never have to worry about<br \/>losing yours or having it copied. You can also easily change codes and access<br \/>tokens as often as you like, providing even more security than traditional<br \/>locks. Plus, because smart locks are connected to your smartphone or another<br \/>internet-enabled device, you can get notifications when someone attempts to<br \/>access your home\u2014enabling you to take immediate action if necessary.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Smart locks also offer convenience, allowing you to unlock your door with just a few<br \/>taps on your smartphone. You can even create temporary access codes for<br \/>visitors or service providers so they can come and go without having to give<br \/>them a physical key. And, if you ever forget to lock the door behind you, many<br \/>smart locks have auto-lock features that will secure it for you.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b><strong>Enable Guests To Enter Without A Key<\/strong><\/b><\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Smart locks provide a convenient way for you to give your guests access to your home<br \/>without having to be there. Instead of providing them with physical keys, you<br \/>can create unique access codes that they can use either once or over a certain<br \/>period. This way, you don\u2019t have to worry about losing the key or being<br \/>responsible for giving it back after your stay is over.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can also use smart locks to manage temporary access codes for service providers<br \/>like house cleaners and lawn care workers. This allows them to enter when<br \/>necessary and removes any potential security risks associated with giving out a<br \/>physical key.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b><strong>Get Notified When Someone Unlocks Your Door<\/strong><\/b><\/p><p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/homeagenius.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Unlock-The-Best-Features-Of-Smart-Locks-2.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"267\" \/><\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Most smart locks are equipped with motion sensors that detect when someone has entered<br \/>your home. This can be a valuable feature for peace of mind, as it allows you<br \/>to know who is coming and going \u2014 whether it\u2019s family, friends or service<br \/>providers. You can receive a notification every time the lock is unlocked and<br \/>check in on your property status from anywhere.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Additionally, some systems allow you to set up custom alerts that notify you if there\u2019s any<br \/>suspicious activity detected at your door is left open for too long or if<br \/>multiple failed attempts are made to unlock the door. This way, you\u2019re always<br \/>aware of who\u2019s entering and exiting your home.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b><strong>Monitor Who Is Coming And Going From Your Home, In Real-Time<\/strong><\/b><\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can also assign temporary passwords or use one-time codes for visitors such as<br \/>delivery personnel. Doing so allows them access without having to give out<br \/>permanent passwords or keys, giving you greater control over who enters your<br \/>home.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These features make it easy and convenient to monitor who comes in and out of your<br \/>home, giving you peace of mind knowing that your family's safety is secure.<br \/>Furthermore, many systems come with an app that helps you manage access from<br \/>anywhere using your phone. This makes it even more convenient to check who\u2019s at<br \/>the door without having to be right there in person.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b><strong>Set Schedules For When People Can Come And Go From Your Home<\/strong><\/b><\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Smart door locks also give you a great deal of control over who has access to your home<br \/>and when. With the right model, you can create specific schedules for each user<br \/>so that they can only enter at certain times. This is especially helpful if you<br \/>have children coming home from school or family members arriving at different<br \/>times throughout the day. You\u2019ll be able to rest easy knowing that everyone is<br \/>entering their home safely and securely according to your predetermined<br \/>schedule.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Scheduling access to your home is also useful if you\u2019re away on vacation or out of town<br \/>for an extended period. You can grant temporary access to someone by creating a<br \/>timed schedule so that they can come and go as needed while you\u2019re gone. You<br \/>can even grant access only once, so friends and family won\u2019t need to worry<br \/>about remembering a key when they drop off something for you. Smart door locks<br \/>make it easy to keep your home secure and manage who has access and when.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b><strong>Give Access To Family, Friends, Or Service Providers Without Having To Give Them A Key<\/strong><\/b><\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/homeagenius.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Unlock-The-Best-Features-Of-Smart-Locks-3.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"267\" \/>\u00a0<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another benefit of using a smart door lock is convenience. Instead of having to worry<br \/>about carrying around physical keys, you can easily unlock the door using your<br \/>smartphone or another connected device. No more fumbling around in your pocket<br \/>or purse trying to find that elusive key! Plus, some systems even allow you to<br \/>manage multiple locks from one central app so you don\u2019t have to install<br \/>separate apps for each lock. The setup process is also easy and many models<br \/>come with pre-programmed access<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b><strong>Control Access To Certain Areas Of Your Home, Like The Garage Or Pool Area. <\/strong><\/b>\u00a0<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Smart door locks can also be used to restrict access to certain areas of your home, like<br \/>the garage or pool area. This is especially useful for keeping kids away from<br \/>these potentially dangerous places. You can set up a separate PIN code for each<br \/>user that limits their access only to the areas you specify. That way, you\u2019ll<br \/>always know who has access to what parts of your home and when.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The pool area can seem dangerous to children, but with smart locks, you can give them<br \/>access to the pool area when you feel they are supervised. This way, you don\u2019t<br \/>have to worry about unwanted visitors or accidents around the pool.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Garages also pose a safety risk for children, and smart locks can help keep them out of<br \/>potentially hazardous areas. You can set up specific PIN codes for each user so<br \/>that only those you trust have access to the garage area.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b><strong>Help Keep Your Home Safe And Secure With Features Like Tamper Alarms And Video Surveillance. <\/strong><\/b>\u00a0<\/p><p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/homeagenius.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Unlock-The-Best-Features-Of-Smart-Locks-4.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"267\" \/><\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tamper alarms are great to have in your home if you\u2019re worried about intruders. These<br \/>tamper-proof sensors detect any attempts of forced entry and alert the homeowner<br \/>or police right away.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Video surveillance is also a great way to keep an eye on your property without having<br \/>to be physically present all the time. With Singaporean CCTV cameras, you can<br \/>monitor your home from anywhere with an internet connection. Smart AI video<br \/>analytics can even identify unusual activity and send alerts directly to your<br \/>phone.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This provides an extra layer of security when you\u2019re at work or out of town. You can<br \/>take comfort in knowing that tamper alarms, video surveillance, and other<br \/>features will help protect your family and possessions from intruders or other<br \/>safety threats. You can also use these features to watch over pets, monitor<br \/>family members, or keep an eye out for strange activity in your neighbourhood.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In addition to the peace of mind that comes with reliable security systems, there<br \/>are also financial benefits. Some <a style=\"font-weight: inherit;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.valuepenguin.com\/2019\/03\/smart-home-insurance-worth-it\" data-type=\"\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">insurance companies offer discounts<\/a> on homeowner\u2019s policiesif you have a monitored system installed. This can help offset some of the<br \/>costs associated with maintaining a safe home environment.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b><strong>Enjoy The Convenience Of A Smart Lock \u2013 There\u2019s Nothing To Install!<\/strong><\/b>\u00a0<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you are interested in a smart lock, book a showroom visit with us today!

smart home ecosystem is a system where every device works together, and devices can be added or removed without disrupting service. It is treated as a software system that coordinates products from multiple categories.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Essentially, a smart home ecosystem is a platform that allows you to control your connected devices from one central location.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b><strong>It All Starts With a Smart Hub<\/strong><\/b>\u00a0<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A smart home ecosystem starts with a hub, which is the brain, coordinating all of your smart products together. The hub connects to your devices wirelessly and gives you the ability to control them using your smartphone or voice commands.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Most hubs also come with a mobile App that lets you add new devices, create rules, and automate your home. Some popular hubs include the Amazon Echo, Google Home, and Apple HomeKit.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019re just getting started with smart home technology, a hub is a great place to start. That is because you can add devices to it over time and slowly build up your ecosystem.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b><strong>Can I Do Without a Smart Hub?<\/strong><\/b>\u00a0<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you do not want to use a hub, there are some stand-alone products that do not require one.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For example, the Philips Hue light bulbs can be controlled with your voice using Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant. However, if you want to use the Philips Hue app, you will need a bridge.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While it is possible to use an app on your phone in place of the hub, you would be missing out on some features, convenience, and accessibility.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b><strong>Factors To Consider - Choosing The Right Smart Home Ecosystem<\/strong><\/b>\u00a0<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b><strong>(1) Your Preferred OS<\/strong><\/b>\u00a0<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another thing to think about is what operating system you use for your phone and other mobile devices. For example, if you have an iPhone or iPad, then Apple Homekit is a good choice.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, keep in mind that many of the HomeKit products do not work well with Android phones. On the other hand, many popular smart home products are not compatible with Apple's ecosystem but can be used with an iOS device.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b><strong>(2) Which Is Your Favourite Voice Assistant?<\/strong><\/b>\u00a0<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The next thing you need to think about is which voice assistant you want to use. If you want to use Amazon's Echo devices, then the Alexa platform will work well for you.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you're an iPhone user, Siri is probably your best bet. Google Home users will obviously want to use the Google Assistant.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The three major smart home ecosystems- Apple, Amazon, and Google- each have their own<br \/>assistant; Siri, Alexa, and Google Assistant respectively. The exception to this rule is Samsung SmartThings which does not support any specific assistant.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, with improvements in technology, customisation can easily be achieved. You can easily use all different products together - For example, you could use HomeKit forwall visualization on your iPad in the living room while using an Amazon Echo for voice control in every room and a Google Nest in the kitchen.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Although Nest is not compatible with HomeKit, you can connect it to a bridging system. By doing this, you are essentially creating a bridge between the two that uses the iOS API platform. This will give you access to almost any other product on the market.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At Home-A-Genius, our eco-system allows the android or apple user to use all the different \"conflicting\" products all at the same time.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b><strong>(3) Compatibility For Other Products <\/strong><\/b>\u00a0<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wheneveryou choose an eco-system, you would also want to consider if it is able to sync all of your desired smart products.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b><strong>(4) Consider The Ecosystem Of The Company<\/strong><\/b>\u00a0<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Lastly, it is important to consider the ecosystem of the company you are thinking about purchasing from. Factors to think about are: security, reliability, and after sales support.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b><strong>Your Options<\/strong><\/b>\u00a0<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b><strong>Amazon Alexa<\/strong><\/b>\u00a0<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Alexa ecosystem is one of the most prevalent and widely used on the market, with a range of compatible devices that include thermostats (Ecobee4), lights, TVs (Fire TV Cube and Fire TV Editions), and more.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some devices have Alexa built-in, while others are compatible with Alexa. Once you enable the skill for the device, Alexa can identify and control it.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b><strong>Google Home<\/strong><\/b>\u00a0<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Google Assistant offers a unique and unmatched experience of being able to control your smart home with just your voice. All Android smartphones come with Google Assistant built-in, which can do everything from playing music to getting news updates, taking calls, sending messages, and controlling smart home gadgets.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The main reason for Google Home's success is that it is the voice assistant app already installed on Android devices, which make up 80% of the smartphone market. With people already familiar with how to use Google Assistant, it has an advantage over Alexa. The Assistant also works in cooperation with the Google Home app on any Android or IOS device.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b><strong>Apple HomeKit<\/strong><\/b>\u00a0<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">HomeKitis an Apple technology platform that acts as a convenient, secure way to control various aspects of your home-- from the lighting and door locks, to the thermostat and more-- all from your iPhone, iPad or other Apple device.An even better feature is that everything connect can be controlled by simply using the Home app on any iOS, iPadOS or macOS device. Plus, it works with Siri for added convenience!<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Home App is divided into three sections: Home, Rooms, and Automation. The home section lists all your smart devices with selected favourites at the top. The rooms section groups devices based on their locations in your house. Lastly, the automation section allows you to automate certain behaviours for your smart devices.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">HomeKit has fewer compatible devices than Alexa or Google Assistant, but new products are being added to the list constantly. HomeKit is a protocol that all devices need in order to get access and work with Apple products.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, Apple has teamed up with Samsung, LG, Sony and Vizio to make sure their TVs are HomeKit supported.
