Your dream of a smart home is slowly becoming a reality. It may still be far in the future but at least we can have an initial experience with smartphone-controlled light bulbs. A couple of years ago, we saw the Belkin WeMo light switch with proper Android device support. Since then, more WeMo app updates have been released to better improve smart lightbulb management–the latest of which is IFTTT compatibility to the WeMo LED bulbs.
WeMo app for the WeMo smart lightbulbs was recently updated to finally work with IFTTT for LED bulbs. Account owners can set formulas to allow smart devices to interact with the said bulbs and some OSTRAM SYLVANIA devices. This means you can connect one device with another and then control them together, connect wirelessly to the LED bulb, and access the lighting solution collection.
WeMo Product Management Director’s Peter Taylor said that this one is the “most approachable entry point to the smart home and one of the most robust connected ecosystems on the market”. The company still continues to work on the platform and give more value to the consumers.
Taylor added:
“Adding IFTTT compatibility to the WeMo LED bulbs unlocks a world of new customization options for household lighting and helps users free up valuable time and energy, allowing them to live more fully in the present.”
Right now, the WeMo collection includes WeMo Switch, WeMo Motion, WeMo Maker, WeMo Light Switch, and WeMo Insight Switch.
