07.12.2020 by Somfy Team Just ask and it is done With TaHoma® switch, you have three ways to control your devices: the smart control with two scene launcher buttons, with your TaHoma® app, or with your voice thanks to a compatible voice assistant! TaHoma switch is Somfy’s latest innovation, the first smart control to centralise and connect your smart home devices. By adding a touch of connectivity to your home, you make your life easier. TaHoma switch and your voice command are perfect allies By its very nature, the smart control with its two scene launcher buttons is ideal for when you are leaving the house for the day or coming back home. Place it near your entrance. As you walk out, switch your house in one touch. Your electric shutters close for example, the lights turn off and the connected thermostat lowers to ‘eco’ mode. When you get home again, switch your house back with the other button. Your home welcomes you with raised shutters and heating and lights on. For the rest of your smart home products and your other scenes, it can be more practical to control them with your phone, both when you’re at home or away, and with voice control, using a smart speaker or your phone voice assistant, at home or in your car. The Ultimate in Comfort and Speed Say for example that you’re comfortably settled on the couch, reading a story with the kids or working on designs for the new kitchen. You all of a sudden realise that the light is getting a bit weak and would like to adjust the blinds. With another small body or reams of paper on your lap, it’s hard to get up. And your phone… is somewhere… This pocket? On the coffee table? Rather than fumbling around, you can use your voice. TaHoma switch is compatible with the three main speakers on the voice assistant market: Google Assistant , Amazon Alexa and Apple Siri* . You can easily control by voice one device, several, or even launch a scene. When your hands are full, you’re too comfortable where you are, or your phone… is somewhere… Speak up! You command, Somfy product executes. Compatible with Your Preferred smart speaker Whatever your preference, whether you’re a loyal Apple fan, more than OK with Google or true-blue to Alexa, all are compatible with TaHoma switch. Create your scenes and you will quickly discover how easy and convenient it is to launch them with your voice. Google Assistant With Google’s connected speakers that have Google Home or Google Assistant, you can control one or several pieces of equipment, or launch a scene, both when you’re at home or on the move using your Android or iOS compatible smartphone or tablet. Say you left your house and forgot to close the electric roller shutters to keep your house fresh on a blazing hot day. Just say, ‘Hey Google, close living room shutters.’ When you drive home later, no need to look for your remote control. Just ask Google to open the gate and garage door for you. Amazon Alexa Alexa is just as simple, and also controls one device, several, or launches a scene. The kids’ homework is done and you’ve cleaned up the kitchen… Hmm, all that’s left to finish the weekend is a movie together! From your couch, you give a voice command, ‘Alexa, launch the movie night scene!’ Your electric blinds lower and the lights go down as you start choosing what to watch. The next morning to start the week right, you say, ‘Alexa, turn on good morning,’ and the motorised blinds open while your Amazing Monday playlist starts. Apple Siri Siri’s help is no less precious. Out on your terrace, you’ve got friends over for a barbecue, but the sun starts to get a bit strong… ‘Hey Siri? Close the awning,’ and the good summer vibes continue in the shade. Or you could be pulling away in your Apple car on a beautiful winter’s day. Ask Siri to open your blinds for you, and let the sun naturally heat your home. From your couch, your car or your terrace, controlling your smart home system with your voice gives you perfect comfort in seconds. Product compatibility with Apple Homekit may vary per country.
