Both my home and office turned into Philips Hue for lighting and introduced control with Amazon Echo and Home Kit and it passed for a while. If you become accustomed to releasing from a physical switch, such as voice control, automation with time and position information, remote control, etc., noncompliant home appliances feel annoying.
Especially air conditioning Confirmation of forgetting or inconvenience that it can not turn on / off from outside ....
The other day, I was informed that the temperature of the office was high by indoor monitor alert, I noticed the forgetting to turn off the heating, but there is no way to turn it off ... There is no knowing, but I wish I knew it To return to the office to turn off the air conditioner ...
By saying "Remo mini" introduced. The air conditioner can now be controlled remotely in a few minutes from opening to setting, remote control registration. I also set Amazon Echo's skills, so I can operate it with voice as well.
Here, as it is control so far from the exclusive application because it is not compatible with the Home Kit, it is convenient. I got a remote control.

The office monitor camera was also changed to "Omna" for Home Kit.
