Kool Tools: Fibaro HomeKit-Compatible One-Touch Scene Controller

Fibaro is shipping the latest product addition to its existing HomeKit-compatible device ecosystem: The Button. Previously available in a version with Z-Wave technology, the award-winning wireless, battery-powered, control device is now available as a separate version compatible with Apple HomeKit and can be purchased via Apple’s online store in 23 countries worldwide, including in the US, Canada, and multiple EMEA countries.

The Button is unique within the HomeKit ecosystem of products in that it does not require a gateway, hub or bridge to connect. At less than 2-inches in size, The Button is one of the smallest and handiest home control devices that can be mounted anywhere, including on the wall or tabletop in any room. Available in multiple colors, The Button appeals to users of any age, and can complement or disappear into the décor of any room. With its familiar and intuitive design, users of any age – ranging from kids to seniors – can easily activate a device or scene with a simple press.

Recognizing up to three different actions, the HomeKit-compatible Button can be programmed to turn off the lights with one click, lock a smart door lock with two clicks, or trigger a customized scene by holding it down. The Button can activate scenes, synchronized actions involving several devices, such as a “goodbye scene” which closes the blinds, locks the door, turns off electrical devices and sets your lights to away mode, or a “good morning scene” which opens the blinds and turns on the lights when pressed. The Button is also equipped with a buzz feature that provides audible confirmation of a proper click with one buzz, two buzzes or a lengthened buzz. This feature can be turned on or off depending on user preference.

The Button is available now in red, white and black for $59.95 from Apple.com as well as from Amazon.com.
