Benefits of App-Controlled Blinds and Shades

Beyond the usual benefits of having window treatments such as light, temperature, and privacy control, there are many benefits to app-controlled window treatments, including:

• Convenience: Apps make opening, closing, or scheduling your shades and blinds incredibly convenient. Schedule your system to open in the morning and close when it gets dark, or control them with your voice or the press of a button.
• Safety: With app-controlled blinds, there are fewer cords for children and pets to get tangled in, making them safer for your entire family. Plus, you can schedule your window treatments to adjust automatically, making it look like someone is home and deterring break-ins even while you're away.
• Home Value: Whether you plan to keep your home or sell it, app-controlled window treatments add value to the property. This is perfect if you plan to sell the house soon or if you want to make the space your forever home, because it adds a subtle hint of luxury to the property.
