Listen "Episode 11: HomeKit certification comes at a big cost for consumers and device makers."
Episode Synopsis
This week Apple disappointed the smart home aficionados at its WWDC conference by not mentioning much in the way of new HomeKit news and new devices. But Kevin Tofel and I discussed the challenges that Apple’s HomeKit partners faced trying to accommodate Apple’s security and hardware needs. This includes the Ecobee CEO’s response to criticism about his older thermostats not being upgradable to HomeKit.
The ring connected doorbell.
Since we don’t have a guest this week, we spent the rest of the show discussing a new, $1,500 oven from June and what the heck is happening with Wink. The Wink platform is for sale and Quirky, the product development group that created Wink, is getting out of the manufacturing business. Finally, we cover the Ring connected doorbell in our 5-minute review segment. Despite my enthusiasm for the connected doorbell, I learned that my doorbell isn’t in the right spot on the to make the device as useful.
Hosts: Stacey Higginbotham and Kevin Tofel
Not much HomeKit at Apple’s WWDC
We do get some cool watch features in the upgrade for the Apple Watch
Would you buy this connected oven?
What’s up with Wink?
