The Nest

You may never have to adjust your heat again! Use the Nest to regulate home temperature ranges that can automatically changed based on the time of day or from an app on your phone. The nest can even be integrated with your smart speaker for voice controls!

Robot Vacuum

The closest thing to the Jetson's robot that's readily available today is an automated vacuum. These handy guys can be programmed to run at the same time each day and eliminate the need to sweep or vacuum!

Phillips Hue

Set your lights on a timer, adjust the brightness/dimness, or turn the lights on or off remotely using your phone. These can even be integrated with your smart speaker for voice controls! The clapper is a thing of the past for good.

Food subscription service

Have mostly prepared meals delivered to your doorstep for a huge time savings each night. No more menu hunting, shopping, measuring, and crossing your fingers that it turns out well. These meals come with everything you need for hot dinner and delicious flavors.

Prime Subscribe and Save

Use Prime's subscribe and save to have your frequent purchases (like toothpaste, soap, etc.) delivered to your door. And, you can usually snag a great discount!

You may never be as productive as Steve Jobs and you definitely don't have that flying car, but these home automation ideas will have your house heated without thought, your floors clean without effort, and dinner on the table in a fraction of the time.
