Que Publishing Smart Home Guide for Seniors: Full-color, step-by-step tasks
🏆 Winner, Bronze Award, APEX 2018 and 2018 INDIES Book of the Year Honorable Mention/Health
Ever felt like technology's moving too fast? This full-color guide to the smart home slows things down, especially for seniors, with clear, relatable examples and print you can actually read (no squinting required). My Smart Home for Seniors isn't just about turning lights on and off with your phone—though that's pretty cool. It's about making life easier, whether that's keeping an eye on your front porch with a smart doorbell, not burning dinner thanks to a smart oven, or just telling your house to warm up without moving from your favorite chair. Voice commands, smartphones, or even just a button press—it's all covered.
Here’s the scoop on what’s inside:
- Colorful, step-by-step guides that don’t assume you’re a tech wizard
- How to chat with Alexa, Google Home, and Siri without feeling silly
- Setting up your gadgets so they actually talk to each other (because they should)
- A no-nonsense look at smart hubs—which one’s right for you?
- Keeping your smart home safe from nosy neighbors (and hackers)
- Control home lighting with smart bulbs and switches
- Enhance home security with smart doorbells, locks, and cameras
- Automate home temperature with smart thermostat
- Simplify cooking and cleaning with smart appliances
- Voice command and smart phone control
- Use IFTTT for device automation
- Security and privacy guidance
- Device setup and interoperability
- Comparison of smart hubs
- Voice-activated device usage
- Full-color, step-by-step tasks
