What are your favorite features? So far we've just used it for music, streaming, news, and a few gadgets. Smart home stuff will probably come next (lighting, thermostats, etc). Anybody have cool recommendations? And do you actually use yours or did it end up collecting dust?

Use it every day. Have a few smart bulbs, smart switches, and a fan hooked to it; basically all the lighting and the fan in the common areas.


I like being able to dim the lamps in the living room if I'm watching a movie, or changing the speed of the fan without having to get up.

Have a few lights in a schedule too which I like.

90% music for us. Alarms, timers, grocery lists, news, weather, traffic, etc. Make up the other 10%. It's powerful you can do a lot with it.

Never.
I don't want nobody listening when I'm in my house. It's prolly legal for it to rat you out to the coppers.

If I want music, I pull out da maganlite pots and the spoons and go at it.
