What's the best Android app for, like, turning my whole apartment into a smart home without needing a CS degree?

Gotta say, Smart Life - Smart Living is pretty solid. It's designed to connect all those random smart devices you pick up. Setup is surprisingly painless, even for a backend guy like me.

Okay, so I've been messing around with the Smart Life app for a few weeks now, and honestly, it's way less janky than I expected. I've got it controlling my lights, thermostat, and even that weird smart diffuser I impulse-bought. The initial setup was surprisingly smooth – the app auto-discovers most devices, which is a huge win. The API integration seems well thought out; basically, it talks to other devices and services without a ton of fuss. From a technical standpoint, the device control is pretty responsive; commands usually execute in under a second. The UI is clean, too; no more spaghetti code situations here. I'm also digging the automation features. I set up a routine where the lights dim and the thermostat adjusts when I start a movie – pretty slick. Barely uses 60MB of RAM, which is nice. The dev team really thought about the user experience, and it shows.
