Control almost everything in your home, from ACs to TVs.
SwitchBot has launched a unique piece of tech capable of controlling smart home devices and infrared appliances. And the best part is you don’t need to connect it to a smartphone or to the internet as it functions perfectly offline.
Aptly named the SwitchBot Universal Remote, it has large spacious buttons, a navigation wheel in the middle, and a 2.4-inch LCD at the top. The company states in their announcement it sought to create a “user-friendly design” that everybody can understand.
Now, you can’t just point the Universal Remote at a device and then push a button to issue commands immediately. According to Android Central, you must first choose what you want to control, which can be done by pressing the center red button. Pressing the main button will let you change which group of smart home devices to control.
Classifications include air conditioners, house lights, Apple TV streaming boxes, and Fire TV screens. Selections appear on the LCD screen at the top and you can scroll through the menu via the navigation wheel.
