Fewer trips across the room, fewer dark hallways.

What tends to get in the way

  • Getting up to reach a light switch
  • Not knowing who is at the door
  • Stairs and reaching becoming harder

What actually helps

Lights on before you get there

Set a hallway light to come on at dusk and off at midnight. You never think about it again.

Step by step

  1. Replace one bulb with a Hue bulb.
  2. In the app, choose Routines, then Sunset.
  3. Or just say “Alexa, turn on the hall light.”

See the door from your chair

A video doorbell shows who is there on your phone or on the Echo Show. You decide whether to get up.

One phrase for bedtime

“Alexa, goodnight” can turn off every light, lock the door, and set tomorrow’s alarm at once.
