A typical home automation system connects controlled devices to a central hub or
gateway. The user interface for control of the system uses either wall-mounted
terminals, tablets, desktop computers, cell phone application, or a Web interface
that may also be accessible off-site through the Internet.

The most popular and regular approach to controlling the lighting in your smart
home is by using an app on your cell phone. Whether you
want smart bulbs, smart switches or smart outlets, you'll be able to control all of
these lighting variants using nothing but a free app and your phone as a remote.
