According to Oberlo, in 2023, over 60 million U.S. households are using smart devices. This figure represents over 46% of the total number, meaning almost half of all families have adopted smart technology. That is genuinely remarkable, considering the technology only dates back to 1975. 

Why the astronomical rise? Smart devices offer convenience and efficiency and enhance a home’s design. Some of the most popular devices are smart light bulbs, video doorbells, and smart thermostats, each controlled via their own apps. A smart device, however, is much different from a smart home. 

As a home automation contractor serving Scottsdale, AZ, since 2006, Wipliance has witnessed the incredible advancements and immense possibilities today's intelligent home brings. We're proud to be a part of this exciting industry, bringing our clients best-in-class technology that’s easy to use.
