What smart home platform should I use?
The three main smart home platforms are Amazon Alexa, Google Home, and Apple HomeKit. Alexa has the largest selection of compatible devices. Google Home works best for those already using Google services. Apple HomeKit offers the best privacy and works seamlessly with Apple devices. Matter, the new smart home standard, is making devices work across all platforms. If you are starting new, pick the platform that matches your phone and daily tech use. Stick with one platform to keep everything working together.
Why It Matters
Your platform choice determines which devices you can buy and how well they work together. Picking the right one avoids frustrating compatibility issues.
