Recently I switch my Smart home over to Apple's HomeKit from Amazon's Alexa. I found more smart home automations in HomeKit and the Home App. Features such as HomeKit Secure Video to save your recordings to your iCloud account. Or location based routines, devices trigger devices or scenes and NFC tags. With Personal automations, your alarm, your phone connecting to bluetooth, opening an app and other features can trigger a personal automation. You add shortcuts and you have a smart home controller that offers more.
