What is a smart speaker?
It is first and foremost a voice control system that can understand the requests addressed to it and process the information in order to provide you with an answer, but also, thanks to the Somfy motorisation, to trigger an action within your smart home.
Rather a user of Alexa speaker, Google speaker or Siri voice? If so, then you'll be pleased to know that with our TaHoma® home automation box, our products are compatible and adapt to your favourite assistant. Somfy explains it all!
In recent years, smart speaker have found a place in our daily lives and Somfy knows it.
At Somfy we see your voice assistant not only as a device for listening to music but as one of the means of providing you with all the comfort you deserve.
With Google Home, Google Home Mini or Google Home Audio, your google smart speaker will answer all your questions, and more! With your Somfy smart home, your google assistant speaker can simplify your life by planning your return home.
All you have to do is tell it.
"Ok Google, turn on the thermostat."
Alexa speaker is your best friend when it comes to controlling your Somfy smart home by voice.
Start exploiring its potential by programming your scene on your TaHoma® app. All you need to do is ask Alexa to trigger the desired scene.
"Alexa, activate the wake-up scene."

"Hey Siri, close the shutters."
