Smart security >

If you want to know what your pets are up to when you’re out and about, or you want to see who is at your door, there’s a growing range of wireless smart security cameras and home monitors available that enable you to do just that. One of our favourites is the Netatmo Welcome Face Recognition Home Camera (£200, apple.co/1QTG0fM), which automatically activates when someone passes in front of it. It can even send an alert to your iPhone, iPad or Mac when it sees someone it doesn’t recognise. It’s capable of recording 1080p Full HD video and even has a night-vision mode, so you can stay safe day and night. The FLIR FX Outdoor Wireless HD Video Camera (£220, apple.co/1QTGr9X) is also able to let you know who’s at the door.
