1. Send Music to Every Room in Your House

Multi-room music provides enjoyment to the whole family. Audio distribution with Savant allows you to centralize control over all the music sources — like CDs, streaming services, vinyl records, radio, and more — you and your family listen to at home. That means anyone in your household can use a smartphone or tablet to select their personal music preferences in rooms throughout the house. For example, use your Savant Pro mobile app for cueing up a Pandora playlist in the kitchen while you’re cooking dinner. Meanwhile, your daughter can use the tabletop touchscreen to select her own playlist in the living room, and your spouse can play a vinyl record in the home office. You can also send the same music to multiple rooms or every room in your house if you’re throwing a party or event.

 

2. Turn On/Off Multiple Lights with a Single Tap

Take control over dozens or hundreds of lighting fixtures in your home from a single interface. With Savant lighting control, you can use your smartphone, tablet, or wall-mounted keypad to turn on, turn off, dim, or change the color and intensity of multiple lights at once. For example, a “Bedtime” scene can trigger all the lights in your home to turn off, and a “Party” scene can brighten the lights in the kitchen and bathrooms while dimming fixtures in the living room and media room. 

 

3. Bolster Your Home Security

Smart home automation allows you to keep a watchful eye over your property and family 24/7. You can implement robust security in your home by integrating intruder alarms, motion sensors, surveillance cameras, video doorbells, smart locks, and gate access into your Savant system. Program the wall-mounted touchscreens throughout your house to display a live video shot of the porch when someone rings the doorbell, create unique door entry codes for everyone in your household, and schedule the doors to lock and alarm to arm every evening at 9 p.m.

 

4. Get Alerts When Something Happens

Your Savant system will let you know when something happens at home. With Savant, you can program your system to send custom notifications to your smartphone when specific events occur. Common examples include when a door, window, or garage is open for longer than 15 minutes, the surveillance cameras detect motion, or a door is unlocked in the empty house. You can also ask your home to alert you when the kids are home from school and when the housekeeper enters and leaves on weekdays.

 

5. Control Your Entire Home with a Single Remote

Since your mobile phone is almost always with you, the Savant Pro app is one of the easiest ways to control your smart home. But another great option for whole-home control is the Pro Remote X2, Savant’s universal handheld remote. The Pro Remote X2 offers you and your family a dual user experience: use the hard, tactile buttons to quickly activate your most-used scenes and functions, while the touchscreen interface can be personalized with custom screen layouts to display your favorite scenes, favorite streaming services, and frequently used settings.
