PowerView® Compatibility

Home Automation

Whether you are a home automation enthusiast or just getting started with connected devices, you can create a personalized whole-home connected experience by integrating PowerView® Automation with compatible smart home systems.

The PowerView® Hub integrates PowerView® features with some of the most popular systems on the market. Each home automation control system has a unique path to integration. Reference the specific usage guidelines and requirements below to integrate PowerView® with compatible home automation systems.

We support the following:

Amazon Alexa

Amazon Alexa is built in the cloud, so it is always getting smarter. Ask Alexa to play music, hear the news, check weather, and now, control your Luxaflex® window treatments. PowerView® Automation with Amazon Alexa allows you to activate your PowerView® Scenes.

Just Ask Alexa to “Turn On Good Morning,” or “Turn On Dinner Party,” and activate your Scenes hands-free.

Please note: A PowerView® Hub, Gen 2, is required to enable the PowerView® Skill in the Amazon Alexa App. You can still connect PowerView® with Amazon Alexa through IFTTT

Apple Homekit

Apple HomeKit technology provides an easy, secure way to control HomeKit-enabled accessories, including your Luxaflex® window treatments, using the Apple Home app and Siri on your iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, Mac, and HomePod. After installing your PowerView® system, enable HomeKit in a few simple steps directly from the PowerView® App. Once enabled, PowerView® Shades can be controlled using the Apple Home app and Siri with your other HomeKit enabled accessories from your iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, Mac, and HomePod.

Please note: A PowerView® Hub (Gen 2), updated to the latest firmware, is required to enable HomeKit. App versie 2.4 and iOS 10.0 or later is required.


Google Assistant

Powered by Google Home, the Google Assistant makes it easy to activate your PowerView Scenes and control your shades with your voice.

Google Home can distinguish your voice from others in your home for a more personalized experience and understands your voice commands. Simply say “Ok Google, turn on Good Night Shades” or “Ok Google, activate I’m Home” to get hands-free help for all the PowerView® Automation shades in your home.

IFTTT

IFTTT is a service that lets you create powerful connections, also called Applets, with one simple premise: if this then that.

You can create Applets, between many different applications, called Channels, including Amazon devices, Google Home and others. IFTTT works with PowerView® Automation so you can create a smart home with just a few swipes and clicks.
