After setting up my smart home, I wanted to share some of my experiences and tips with the community! ![]()
Lights & Ambiance
I’ve been using Govee lights for my home in Kansas City and now in my apartment in Hawaii. The mix of Govee, Twinkly, and Moonside lights has completely transformed my spaces. I’m really hoping Govee releases their Christmas lights this year—they’d be perfect for the holiday season! ![]()

Security & Monitoring
I’ve been experimenting with Wyze cameras and their offline recording feature. While the cameras store data locally, I’m curious if there’s a way to centralize this footage without relying on internet connectivity. Any suggestions from the community would be greatly appreciated! ![]()

Temperature & Humidity Sensors
For my second home in France, I’m looking into wireless temperature and humidity sensors. I stumbled upon Wireless Tags, but I’m unsure how to integrate them with my SmartThings setup. If anyone has experience with this, please share your insights! ![]()

Smart Lighting Automation
I’ve set up motion sensors in my living room, but I’d love to disable them during movie nights. Does anyone have a clever workaround for this? Maybe a custom mode or scene? ![]()
