Why You Don't Need a Smart Speaker to Control Your Lights

Why You Don't Need a Smart Speaker to Control Your Lights

Smart speakers like Alexa or Google Assistant promise convenience—but in reality, they often create new problems. From privacy concerns to unstable WiFi and complicated setup processes, many people are beginning to wonder: is there a simpler way to control lights with your voice?

The Frustration with WiFi-Dependent Smart Switches

  • They require stable internet. A temporary WiFi outage? You lose control of your lights.
  • They depend on apps and smart speakers. Not everyone wants to link their phone—or their home—to cloud services.
  • Privacy concerns are growing. Always-listening devices aren’t for everyone, especially families or older adults.
  • Setup can be overwhelming. Download the app, register, pair, troubleshoot… sound familiar?
