Next-level automation designed to simplify your life

This month, we spoke with Kenny Kim, Vice President of Product Management at Snap One. Kenny shared insights on the exciting new X4 platform upgrade and how it is transforming smart home automation, helping Livewire deliver even smarter home experiences.

What’s new with Control4?

Control4 is shaking things up. The next generation known as X4 has officially been launched, and it’s bigger, faster, and more powerful than ever.

What is Control4?

It’s a high-end smart home platform that brings all your tech under one roof. Instead of jumping between apps to manage your lighting, audio, security, and more, Control4 puts everything in one place.

With a Control4 system, schedule your shades to open and close based on natural light levels, a feature that boosts energy efficiency and syncs with your circadian rhythm (we call that daylight harvesting).

But wait, there’s more.

For movie lovers, Control4 lets you move from room to room without missing a scene. Whether you’re watching in the living room or continuing in the kitchen, everything stays perfectly in sync. (Yes, even your Apple devices play nice here.)

If that sounds like your kind of setup, here’s why X4 is worth your attention:

• Customize every part of your daily routine
• Sync effortlessly with Apple devices
• Control everything without app-hopping
• Experience unmatched personalization and performance

Final Thoughts

Control4 is only as valuable as the way you personalize and customize your system. It can be as simple as just controlling your audio in the house, but it can do so much more. The power of Control4 is way deeper than what you currently imagine. I encourage everybody to upgrade to X4, start playing with your system, see what it can actually do, and we’ll continue to add features that allow you to feel empowered to do so.
