      The Perfect Smart Home Controller Exists — But You Probably Can’t Buy It

      As much as we dislike admitting it, our smart homes require a universal remote control. The Ava Remote is the closest we've gotten.

      Main Highlights:

      • Ava Remote costs $1,300 and is only available through professional installation; it cannot be purchased off the shelf.
      • With just one app, you can control your entire house. Of course, you pay a high price and give up a lot of control in exchange for the privilege.
      • The Ava is the first Google Certified remote control, which means it runs the Google Play store.

      The Ava Remote is a dedicated smartphone for your smart home, but there is still a need for a remote control that sits on the coffee table, nightstand, or kitchen counter and is just there for home or music control. Because smartphones and tablets are meant as personal gadgets, repurposing them as smart home remotes do not function effectively. Furthermore, they only last a day before needing to be plugged in (or moving into someone’s bedroom as a personal gadget).

      Almost all of these difficulties are addressed in Ava. The device’s 2,200mAh battery could last up to six days on a single charge, according to a Swiss-American firm specializing in music streaming and home management. It includes a USB-C-powered magnetic charging station that is meant for one-handed operation, and it can be restricted to one app if you only want it to manage your Google Home or Philips Hue lighting. (It works with Google Play, so it won’t be an Apple Home controller, but it will function with Apple Music.)

      At that time, your phone is undoubtedly the greatest option. Do you have to produce proof that you are a senior citizen? That is more expensive than a high-end flagship smartphone.

(It works with Google Play, so it won’t be an Apple Home controller, but it will function with Apple Music.) The unavoidable reality is that today’s smart home is built to be controlled by your phone. It also includes a built-in microphone and speaker for voice control with your preferred voice assistant and as an intercom between rooms.

      There is no lock screen to fiddle with; simply pick it up to wake it up. There is no lock screen to fiddle with; simply pick it up to wake it up. With a quad-core, 2 GHz CPU under the hood, it can manage numerous programs at once, something your old repurposed smartphone or tablet may not be able to do.

      The lack of physical buttons on the Ava limits its usage as a remote for sophisticated AV systems. There isn’t a universal AV remote that can also operate your smart home since the Logitech Harmony is no longer available (Logitech discontinued it last year).

      Luxury smart home manufacturers like Crestron, Control4, and Savant feature tactile button remotes meant to operate your smart home and AV setup. To be fair, CEO and co-founder Raphael Oberholzer informs me that it isn’t intended to operate your TV system.

      It’s a smart home remote control. But it’s not the same without tactile buttons. However, if you have your AV system set up with Crestron or Savant — which many Ava customers will because it’s only available through custom installers — you can at least operate it with their respective Android applications. But it’s not the same without tactile buttons. (It’s unclear why Apple doesn’t offer a native Home app for the Apple TV.)

      If you are all-in on one ecosystem, there are several AV/Smart home options for the DIY smart home – the Apple TV with its slippery remote does a decent job, as long as your TV is constantly on and you trust Siri to receive all your voice requests accurately. (It’s unclear why Apple doesn’t offer a native Home app for the Apple TV.) However, neither Apple nor Amazon (and certainly not Google) have mastered the “managing my smart home on my TV” experience.

      The Ava isn’t a straightforward answer for everyone, especially at that price, but it’s a glimpse of what may be.

      It must have long battery life and be around $200 so that I may have one in each main room of the house. That is a portable, touchscreen smart home controller for everyone in my smart home that is as powerful and simple to use as a smartphone but is not one. It must have long battery life and be around $200 so that I may have one in each main room of the house. Furthermore, it must appear excellent when charging in my living room. I also want it to operate my TV, sound system, and smart house. Furthermore, it must appear attractive when charging in its charging station.
