HOW TO Switch off at night using Apple's Home app

-

1 Home base

There is a range of energy–saving options in Apple’s Home app, but the simplest doesn’t require a device acting as a home hub. Begin by opening the app on your iOS device. Tap the + button and then choose Add Scene.

2 Scene it

The list of suggested scenes covers a number of common scenarios depending on the time of day — you could create a completely custom scene, but it makes sense in this case to just opt for the Good Night suggestion.

3 Sleep well

Since you’ve chosen Good Night, all your HomeKit accessorie­s will be set to Off by default. Tap the ones you’d like to keep on, then tap Done to save your scene. Just trigger it when you hit the hay to reap the savings.
