The overall implication is that smart home owners would have even more options available to them to improve the way their house operates along with its ease of use.
As the experts in everything smart home automation related, we have gathered some of the most important advancements in smart home technology features to expect in 2021. We continually keep up with the developing trends to ensure we offer our visitors the best of the best. Let’s see what we can expect in the coming year and beyond.
The Internet of Things (IoT) which refers to the wirelessly controlled network of devices that is becoming a bigger part of our lives is the specific driving force behind the smart home technology.
The technology makes possible an advanced home network which acts as the central nervous system, integrating the different components of the automated system of the home so they work together hand in hands. The following are the most critical features of an advanced smart home for 2021.
More Ease of Control as Mobile Phones are to Replace Hubs.
It is now a common thing for most smart homeowners to centralize portal hub that controls their home various functions technology. In 2021, we would see more of a major move towards smartphones replacing hubs with easy-to-use apps. This would ensure a greater control of one’s home from anywhere inside it as long as one’s mobile phone is with one.
Smart Decor
The trend of décor-friendly smart home gadgets will explode in 2021 as the worlds of interior design and smart tech integrate further.
Aesthetics can be just as important as the functionality in the home.
Think about WIFI-enabled aroma diffusers that provide stylish LED lighting, aesthetically-pleasing smart hubs and even smart planters.
Remote access
This is an extension from the above. Much of what smart home really mean is nothing much more than having remote access to one’s home systems. Remote access lets you operate your home’s functions at ease of operation.
Depending on the customized operations that have been worked on it, remote access can let you access your home via video surveillance, turn on the entertainment system for that in-law who can’t figure out the remote, and even unlock the door to let the dog-walker in — and that’s just the tip of the iceberg. It gives you nothing but remarkable peace of mind on what goes on, goes in and out your property.
Advanced Security

Many smart home surveillance systems can send intelligent notifications that differentiate between welcome guests and strangers. The more interesting part is an advanced home-security system, as part of your home automation installation, is fully customizable to the needs of your specific security desires.
A More IoT Integrated Home Functions.

The Internet of Things will continue learning our daily routines, removing the need for triggered controls from us.
The IOT will continue to be more self-sufficient, making the operation of a smart home even easier than it is now. For instance, this could see the front door of one’s home unlocking because it recognises one’s face, or a thermostat, having known the time one is to do exercise because one has chosen the workout playlist.
It’s almost an integration of robotic engineering with the home.
Greater Degree of Privacy
