Siri is coming to the ecobee SmartThermostat with voice control with a free software update, starting today. Customers will be able to say “Hey Siri” to their ecobee SmartThermostat and get hands-free help setting the temperature, sending an intercom message, and more. The software update has begun now for some customers, and will be available over the next few weeks for all ecobee SmartThermostat customers.
We know the power of voice firsthand. Most ecobee SmartThermostat with voice control users leverage their voice to help control their smart home. From changing the temperature to setting reminders for the whole family via Siri, we’re always looking for ways to make our customers’ lives better, with devices that bring even more comfort and convenience to each day.
The Siri integration opens up even more ways for customers to interact with the ecobee SmartThermostat, and now makes ecobee the best smart thermostat for Apple HomeKit users. By design, the SmartThermostat will send Siri requests through customers’ HomePod mini on the same network, providing a level of privacy customers have come to expect from Apple. This new addition also underscores our commitment to an open ecosystem and privacy-focused voice experiences.
All leading smart home ecosystems (Apple, Amazon, Google, and Samsung) are now compatible with the ecobee SmartThermostat, allowing users to manage their busy lives with their preferred system.
