Today I made use of an old iPad Air that wasn’t getting much use by mounting it to my wall to serve as a controller for my smart home. This is a review and installation of the VidaMount On-Wall Slim Tablet Mount made by VidaBox.

I’m a big fan of Apple’s Homekit technology and am always looking for AFFORDABLE smart home options that work well with Homekit.

Ecobee3 lite is the HomeKit thermostat I use
This may sound wierd but…
I binge watch theese videos
Great videos- I like em! You earned yourself a new sub!
Out of curiosity, what security camera system are you using that you can constantly have the feed up? Thanks!
What cameras are you using? What app that shows the 4 cameras together?
Thanks a lot Shane,
It was a helpful video for me
Is the front camera still usable for face time?
Nice vids fella! Subscribed 👍🏼
Hey Shane, what are the cameras sending the feeds? Btw, i have Ecobee4 & room sensor but honestly at the end of the day in my home automation, i just need a smart capable thermostat. Keeping with your on a budget theme, there are just as a capable thermostats for much less. Is it cool that Alexa is built in… sorta however they don’t tell you that Alexa speaker can’t be part of a speaker group… so when i play music to the all speakers group, no Audio can be played on any of the 3 thermostats, 2 of which where i don’t have speakers in that area. I can’t use that speaker to announce when doors open or close, when the wife gets home etc.. like i can on all the other echo dots b/c it doesn’t show up an option. So I would suggest check the Honeywell Lyric Tstats.. they are about 1/2 the price & HomeKit compatible.
Hey Shane! I was looking for some homekits automation and then dropped by and just enjoyed it a lot. Rly!
I’m from Brazil and I’m looking for a way to automate my house and kinda liked ur whole setup… would there have any possibility for you to show us all ur stuff? I mean, like a tour…
thx for sharing with us so far 🙂
Just installed Ecobee in my house, and love it……it’s homekit compatible, and Nest is NOT
Awesome video! Just a heads up, I’m sure you probably know already, but a super cheap solution to adding a ton of “non-compatible” smart home products to home HomeKit is by using a rasperberry pi. These little devices cost no more than $30 and it’s made it so much easier to add a ton of non supported products like my nest, garage door openers, and my tp-link Kasa switches.
Fantastic video Shane!! Thanks for the shoutout. Your iPad setup looks really slick.
Shane,
For less than 200 subs your videos are top notch! The editing quality and content is great. I'm about to get into making my apartment Homekit enabled. I've been watching all your videos and just wanted to say don't stop!!! I'm so glad Apple opened up the requirements for smart devices to be Homekite capable. We're starting to see more and more companies hop on the Homekit train (except for Nest of course…).
Best video yet, Shane. Awesome solution. Feels like you just made an Apple-centric version of the Google Home Hub. Very cool. If you’re looking for smart thermostats, I absolutely love Ecobee … works with HomeKit too!
Awesome install! I would like to hear you opinion on either the Ecobee or the Sensie thermostat.
I think your research really paid off.📚 That’s a nice looking wall mount. … And having the Server on the opposite wall… bonus! 🛠
What a clean install! Nice vid!
