Zuli: Control Lights and Appliances From Your iPhone

Your iPhone can not only make you more productive but can also make your home smarter with app-enhanced gadgets. Take the Zuli smartplug for instance. It lets you control lights and appliances from your smartphone. It learns from users to adjust settings to who they are, what room they are in, and how they prefer to use their devices.

Zuli communicates with your smartphone using Bluetooth. It offers on/off control for appliances, dimming for lights, location based automation, energy monitoring, and scheduling. The Zuli smartplug knows when you are away, so it shuts off unused devices for you. Just plug a Zuli smartplug into a standard outlet, connect your appliance, and download the companion app. You need at least 3 of them to form a smart network. The app organizes and groups your devices into rooms and helps you control them easily.

Zuli can make your life easier and save you some money. The full house pack is not cheap but worth considering if you are serious about home automation using a smartphone.
