Smart home integration apps promise to automate daily tasks and save time, but I'm wondering if the setup and maintenance time outweighs the benefits. Every new smart device seems to require its own app, account, and troubleshooting.

I'm looking for smart home integration apps that actually create a cohesive system rather than a collection of disconnected devices. The ideal would be apps that work with multiple brands and create useful automations for daily routines.

Has anyone found smart home apps that genuinely save time and mental energy rather than becoming another tech support burden?
