What's a WiFi-connected, fully programmable, smart home compatible clock? It's LaMetric! (Boogie woogie, woogie!) LaMetric Time is a clock, yes, but this 2016 Red Dot Design Award Winner barely breaks a sweat showing you the hours and minutes of your day on its big ol' pixel display. Where the multi-talented timepiece truly impresses is in its abilities to provide at-a-glance readouts on anything from the weather to news headline to real-time notifications from your contacts. LaMetric Time can also connect to your home's lights and other smart appliances to give you control of them from anywhere you take your trusty digital brick.
LaMetric Time integrates with services and apps to track and display the information you tell it is important to you. It is compatible with:
- iOS
- Android
- Amazon Alexa
- Phillips Hue
- WeMo
- Nest
- Ring
- SmartThings
- IFTTT
LaMetric Time requires an iPhone or Android smartphone for setup and configuration only; after that it flies solo through WiFi. The interface is simple to use - left and right buttons to navigate between apps and a middle button for taking action once one is selected - and easy to read. With those ginorma-pixels I bet even my grandpa could see it. From heaven. RIP, Grampy!
