- Written by Rebecca Smith

Tech is ever-developing and changing lives and how we do things. From the office to home, new gadgets are entering the market that can make your work easier. You can now carry out various tasks at home without having to worry about moving from point to point all the time - like dialing a TV tuner to search for a channel.
When thinking about furnishing, renovating, or decorating your home, you should think about tech improvements. New home technology gadget installments can improve your everyday life and achievements. LG’s knock knock fridge eliminates the need to carry a spotlight and open your fridge often to check what is inside.
These are the top seven smart technology gadgets you may want to consider for your home upgrade.
1. Alexa from Amazon
Alexa is the most common home smart device among many people. But how techy and smart is Alexa? With Alexa, you can control your home gadgets, listen to music, create and execute a shopping list, and stay up-to-date with the news.

On Amazon Echo, you can listen to your books on the go or while resting at home. The smart speaker uses Alexa’s intelligence system to read from a set of your book subscription on Amazon. You need to organize your content on your Amazon account and give Alexa access so that it can read the books to you whenever you want.
Alexa app allows you to connect and control your devices at home from wherever you are. You only need to call Alexa on your smartphone and give the voice commands for things you need to do. You can check the status of your home devices and monitor your home with the Alexa home security cameras right from your phone.
2. Google Home

The technology giant, Google, provides you with an all-inclusive solution for your home automation. We know all the services offered by Google - Google Assistant, YouTube, Shopping deals, Google Pay, YouTube Music, and so much more. You can store all your information in one place and personalize your experience across devices by logging into your account.
Google Home unifies your tech gadgets at home and sets up home control and security devices like cameras, lights, and Chromecast. This technology also uses your mobile device to connect and manage other home devices like WeMo, Samsung SmartThings, and Philips Hue.
The Android app allows you to set up shortcuts on your device to access various functionalities with a single tap. Control all your home speakers, cameras, lights, and devices at the tap of a button.
3. Vivint Smart Home
When you need a simple yet powerful home smart solution, you should think about Vivint. The mobile app converts your smartphone into a complete home security control device that monitors and controls almost everything at home from a simple interface.
Use the app when you want to manage your smart thermostat, door sensors, security lights, and smoke detectors, among many devices. You will no longer need to run multiple apps for various home services. The application also eliminated the use of physical switches to turn your devices and lights on and off.
4. Samsung SmartThings
We know Samsung to be one of the loved tech companies globally. With high-end smartphones, fridges, tablets, and so much, you can trust the company to deliver when it comes to quality. SmartThings from Samsung is a home technology system that makes it easy and simple to entertain your guests, monitor your home, and improve the general livelihood. The system can connect to and manage devices from various brands.
5. Apple Home

Apple is another giant company with a substantial user base. We know that Apple employs its unique approach to create durable and quality products - both the hardware and software. Settling for Apple Home can be one of the most satisfying experiences of your life.
This smart home automation system kit allows you to control your house accordingly. For instance, you can use the “scenes” feature to manage several devices and features with a single tap on your iPad, iPhone or Macbook. The kit and app are also compatible with various home smart technologies you might be running.
6. Wink Hub
It is common knowledge that some people buy the “best” or most affordable devices for their homes without the need to observe brand loyalty. Not every smart system can operate various smart devices from other brands.
Wink allows the mainstream consumers to run automation from other vendors for their daily needs. Manage your home devices - including kitchen appliances - from a single system. You can also use their app for home automation when you are out.
7. Sonos One
When all you need is voice command and audio integration for your home, then you need a simple system to automate your devices. Sonos One employs both Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa to automate your audio systems running on other Sonos speakers.
Summary
Smart technology for homes is a must-have for most homeowners that need automation to make running errands easier. Choosing the appropriate system for your home may not be easy, but you can decide on the automation service to get according to your preferences, budget, and current needs.
