HomeKit your Blinds!

The Tilt2 is an awesome way to add HomeKit control to your existing blinds. Although not “Apple” certified yet they control does pair nicely with HomeKit. The ability to set scenes to have you blinds open in different configurations is nice. We have them shut automatically at 11pm and open at sunrise to a 60% setting. Around 3pm when the sun is beating down we have them close to around 80%. Integrating with Siri works well too. The only real downside is the size of the motor but after a while it blended in and most guest at our home don’t even recognize that it’s there. We will be adding the Tilt2 to all of our home blinds!

Awesome Blinds!

I really love my new SOMA blinds. They were simple to hook up and connected with Alexa easily. I had a slight issue with connecting during a period in which their server was down, but their customer service was wonderfully responsive and reassuring. I have upgrading about 75% of my current blinds to SOMA blinds and will complete the process for my entire house soon.

Smart Shades 2 and Connect

One of the best home automation investments. Easy to install, worked as documented. My shades now operate on a schedule and can be operated via voice command to my Google mini. Highly recommend!
