Tweet Now: POP to control your smart home with the new @Logitech Pop Home Switch.
Logitech Pop Home Switch is compatible with a wide range of lighting and smart home products including lighting, door locks, and
blinds from companies like LIFX, Phillips Hue™, Lutron, and INSTEON®, and you can mix and match product controls on an individual
switch.
Each switch can trigger three actions using different presses – a single press, a double press, and a long press. For example,
you can set individual switches to turn smart products on/off, adjust brightness and scene presets, or quickly access your favorite
Sonos music playlists and stations.
Setup is simple. The Pop app (available for Android® and iPhone®) scans your Wi-Fi network for compatible devices in the home.
Then, you can assign individual devices to a switch or combine multiple devices into a single trigger using Recipes -- simple
combinations of product controls you can set up using the Pop app. So, if you want to set the mood with lighting and the music
turned up for date night, you can do that easily with a single press of Pop. Or if your kids want the music tuned to a specific
playlist or the lights bright to help them concentrate when they’re studying, they can easily do that with another press.
Plus, pairing your Pop Home Switch with a Logitech Harmony hub-based remote expands the types of devices that Pop can control
exponentially with the addition of every entertainment product Harmony can control. The Pop Home Switch can be used to trigger
one-touch Harmony Activities, such as “Watch TV” or “Listen to Music”, combining both home entertainment and smart home devices
like lights, locks, blinds, and more.
“Sometimes you just want to set the mood for movie night without opening multiple apps to turn down the lights, turn on the TV
and the sound bar and draw the blinds.” said Renee Niemi, head of the Smart Home business at Logitech. “With Pop, you can do all
that with a press of the switch. It makes the smart home simple and accessible for everyone — not just the person with the
smartphone.”
Availability
The Logitech Pop Home Switch Starter Pack and the Logitech Pop Add-on Home Switch are expected to be available in the U.S. in
August. The suggested retail price of the Pop Home Switch Starter Pack is $99.99 and the Pop Add-On Home Switch suggested retail
price is $39.99. The Pop app will be free for both Android and iPhone users, and is expected to be available in the coming weeks.
