Hoping that Lights button at the top will enable me to turn everything off for Halloween. We’re going out and don’t want yard and porch lights on to disappoint trick or treaters. Normally, all come on at sunset. 

It’s just a filter on the view. You hit lights button and all other smart devices are hidden. You still need to scroll and turn off each light. Probably easier to say “hey siri turn off all lights”

Many contractors like doing that when it is wrong. The latch should pull the door tightly against the seal. NOT the deadbolt.

Biggest missing feature is multiple users. I can buy a surface or MBA and various family members can use it. IPad is tied to a single one of my kids appleid.

The poor support and bugs in August products are so abundant that it really should not be on a list like this. Unless of course AppleInsider is getting paid for pushing this; in which case I wouldn’t trust this list at all…

It’s really too bad they didn’t just put tvOS on these with a Mac display app in it. They could have even had a FaceTime app so the display could also optionally function as a stand alone device… and then use the remote or connected Mac to control it…

eventually once the APIs were stable, third parties could then implement their own “connected Mac” apps if there was any advantage/market for it.
