Build a Smart Home Control App

As smart devices become more common, a centralized mobile controller improves convenience and safety. This app development project introduces you to IoT integration, device APIs, MQTT/WebSocket communication, and real-time status syncing.

Users can control smart lights, plugs, locks, thermostats, and sensors. Features include scheduling, voice control integration, security alerts, and real-time device status updates across rooms or zones.

The app connects to smart home devices via Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, or cloud APIs. It allows manual control and shows live status. Device actions (like on/off or temperature change) are synced in real time and can be automated through rules or schedules.

• User connects the app to a home hub or device cloud account.
• The dashboard lists connected devices with icons and controls.
• Users can turn devices on/off, adjust brightness/temperature, or lock/unlock remotely.
• Schedules and automations run in the background based on triggers or timers.
• Alerts are sent for sensor events (motion, intrusion, etc.).
