Smart lighting products, such as smart lightbulbs and smart light switches, are some of the most popular smart home devices on the market. 

 

These products connect to the internet via WiFi, Bluetooth, or a hub or bridge that usually comes in the box, so you can control them remotely via an app on your smartphone or a digital assistant such as Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant. You can also integrate them with other smart home devices to make them work together. For example, you can set all the lights in your home to automatically turn off when you arm your security system as you leave the house. 

Smart lighting allows you to do a lot more than program your lights to switch on and off. You can check from work whether your kids left the lights on (again!), and remotely turn them off to save energy. Or set the mood in a room by customizing color and brightness.
