Having access to voice commands and programmable schedules makes it easy to control your blinds and optimize their performance. They also look incredibly stylish and come in a wide variety of styles. But how can you figure out which smart blinds are best for your smart home? Motorised blinds are worth it for those who value convenience and ease of use. They are especially useful for hard-to-reach windows or for those who have mobility issues. In addition, they can provide energy savings by allowing for precise light control. Although the initial investment in motorised blinds is higher than that of manual blinds, motorised blinds generally need to be replaced less often because they do not suffer from the same wear and tear associated with manual operation. In addition, automating the daily operation of multiple blinds could be considered a time and cost-saving, especially for businesses. Smart homes, which are full of internet-connected devices capable of being controlled remotely and performing tasks on-demand or at scheduled times, are now the norm. From a robot vacuum to your heating system, if you can’t control it with a remote control or your smartphone, you’re getting left behind.

Once I had the manual I was able to get the blinds connected to the Graywind App and then Alexa within 15 minutes. Once installed with compatible windows 23 inches to 74 inches wide, all of your main controls are handled by the Tilt MySmartRollerShades app. The iOS and Android apps connect via Bluetooth. Set schedules, enable sunrise/sunset functions for raising and lowering your blinds, and make adjustments all from your preferred mobile device. Keep in mind that because the app is powered by Bluetooth and not Wi-Fi, you'll need to operate your motorized blinds while at home. If you want on-the-go controls, there are several options.

Remote Control: One remote can control at most 5 blinds. The blinds connected to the same remote control can be opened or closed together or separately. The angle of slats can be adjusted by remote or mobile APP. Introducing our collection of electric vertical blinds - the perfect addition to any modern home or office.

According to Tracy Christman, executive vice president of product development and strategy at Budget Blinds, you'll want to consider several different factors when shopping for smart blinds. One important aspect to consider is the motor. More specifically, you’ll want to find a motor that’s built to last. HomeKit News is not in any way afflilated or endorsed by Apple Inc. or any subsidiary companies related to Apple. I’ve been looking at a few smart blind motor options; from motors connected directly in the blind tube & other external blind chain motors. This blind motor seemed the best and most flexible option available. I bought one blind motor at fist, but have ended up buying 6 so far… But this was after sorting out a few ‘user manual’ niggles (the instructions should say ‘Set Up the Chain Motor First’ including the ‘OPEN & CLOSE’ settings. ONLY set up the SMART APP and CONNECT the Blind Motor after you have set up the Chain Motor to work through the buttons on the motor unit. Apart from that niggle everything has been fine setting up the Smart Blind Motor. The only thing to be aware of is that you will most likely have to ‘cut’ and re-join the blind chain, as the Chain Motor needs the blind chain to be ‘tight’ to work. But the ‘connectors’ to reconnect the chain together doesn’t go through the chain motor ‘cog’ (or the main Cog of the blind, might be different with the blind you have)- I have tried various chain ‘connectors’. So to get over this problem, I MELT the blind chain beads; joining one to another. This works fine. If a little fiddly. BLIND MOTOR POSITION: I tried various positions for the motor. on the wall I found straight down 3-4cn from top of windowsill the best place. My blinds are inside the window space. SMART/WIIFI – Every easy, and works well, I use the ‘automation’ so blinds close at sunset and open at sunrise and the blinds work well with ALEXA and Google Home. Plus the remotes you can buy separately work easily.

Other factors that can impact the price include how complete the set is (does it include just a motor or the blinds themselves too), how customized the blinds are, and the type of window coverings included. The latter tend to be the most expensive.
