Why Smart Plugs Are the Simplest Form of Home Automation ; _technical_01

Developers automate workflows, scripts, and infrastructure—but home automation often starts with a much simpler concept: controlling power.

WiFi smart plugs allow users to:

Schedule device usage

Remotely manage appliances

Integrate voice assistants into daily routines

By abstracting hardware control into a mobile app, smart plugs turn legacy devices into semi-smart systems without modification.

This reflects a broader tech trend:
👉 Incremental automation beats complex systems for mass adoption.

Smart plugs are a reminder that good technology isn’t always flashy—it’s useful, reliable, and easy to deploy.
