As technology continues to evolve, turning your home into a smart haven has never been more achievable. The fusion of smart devices, IoT technology, and the power of your Apple Watch has given rise to an exceptional level of convenience. With Apple’s Home app acting as your virtual control center, you can effortlessly manage many HomeKit-enabled accessories, from lights and locks to thermostats and cameras–all from the tiny device on your wrist.

Your Apple Watch is more powerful than you think!

Let’s dive into the power of your Apple Watch to control your smart home and touch on the importance of a fiber-fast Internet connection, like the one offered under PLDT Home Fiber Plus Plans, in ensuring a seamless experience.

Step 1: Get set up

On your iPhone, open the Home app where you can create a home, set up rooms, and add devices. Whatever you set up here shows up on your Apple Watch.

Step 2: Make use of Siri as your home assistant

Siri makes it easy to control your smart devices using your voice. Just say things like “Turn off the office lights” and watch the magic happen.

The Home app shows what you need when you need it. It might show your coffee maker in the morning and your lamp at night. Tap to control them. If you need to adjust the settings, tap "More" for options.

Moreover, you may also use the “Cameras” option to see live video from your security cameras on your watch. It’s just like having a mini control room on your wrist!

Step 5: Switch between homes

Got more than one home set up? No problem. Open the Home app on your Apple Watch and pick which home to control.

Your Apple Watch transforms into a control hub, making life simpler wherever you are–and with high-speed Internet, your smart home becomes even smarter. So, whether you’re turning off lights with a simple command or checking on your home from miles away, your Apple Watch and speedy Internet make it all happen.
