Which device do you use the most for controlling your smart home?
Just stumbled on your videos when looking for a review of the new Echo dot. In addition to the great reviews I love your humor in your videos! As a father of 4 I can definitely relate to the iPad that is filthy. Thanks for the app recommendation Home Assistant! I am going to try this to manage the plethora of smart home devices in my home in 1 place instead of multiple apps
Hey what’s that led light cube called @8:14
Awesome definitely going to get the Samsung watch . Not much info out there on if you can control a smart home with a watch. Thanks!
All right, I don’t take the best care of my technology, but a thick layer of grime on the screen? That is disgusting!
Can you please do a complete video on making your home smart with home assistant. Like the things you need, step by step to set it up and link everything. I have zero knowledge on this stuff. How to put everything on the tablet to control everything and how to link everything up. Can you please do that or link me to a channel of someone who has that in debt video from A-Z
Your tip with the fingerprint is awesome! I checked that and it works perfectly for me. Thank you.
I can give you my tip. Level up the fridge. If you do that correctly it should always close itself so you don't have to check if left open anymore 😉.
Can you scan Home Assistant NFC tags with the Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 as well?
Do you have a video on how to start using Home Assistant ? Ive seen videos that require raspberry pies and i am not trying to go that route. I want to use my tablet. Not sure how to start
That Home Assistant joke was hillarious!
Yeah yeah google is watching you AF
With 2800 entities this app on a Galaxy watch crashes the second you start it. This smart wear app is buggy as shit
the title made it sound like your house is an employee. Smart homes should stand up for more autonomy and show they don't need a manager!
Hi Paul, can you do a video for what you would recommend for Assisted living smart homes, for the physically disabled, or for emergency works? for example, a fire alarm linking to google home/alexa "there is smoke in the kitchen" all the lights turn on, the extractor turns on, and power is cut to ovens.
I am currently juggling devices on the Alexa app, Smart Life, SylvaniaSmart, Ring, Lepro LampUX, Cloud Intelligence, Yi Home, UltraPro, Monster Smart, Hello Fairy, and DuoCo StripX. God I wish I had known how involved things would get and and been more careful while peace-mealing my setup together. If it wasn't for the Alexa App reigning almost everyone in one one platform I would go nuts. Also, why the hell hasn't Amazon written an Iphone widget for the Alexa App yet?
You are the best brother…the best home automation channel so far
Which platform did you use to install Home Assistant? Raspberry pi?
What's the secret to getting the tiles to show up on the Pixel 6 Pro? I just set one up but it doesn't show up when I swipe down to see them.
Great video! I've been really close to buying a tablet several times and haven't been able to pull the trigger. I already have a large phone, the S21 Ultra, so it's been hard to justify a tablet for me. You covering how much you use yours may have just put me over the edge.
Absolutely yes for the camera gear video.
hi! lol Paul voice! hahah. One question, where do you have HA installed? PC or Raspberry?
