About 45% of U.S. internet households own at least one core smart home device — this excludes smart speakers — and about 20% own a video doorbell. But according to new research from Parks Associates, the set-up process for smart home devices continues to plague consumers.
In the new report, Parks Associates said 52% of DIY users report setup or connectivity issues revealing that the user experience continues to be one of the main problems in smart home adoption.
“The smart home market has matured, expanding the need for an enhanced user experience to reach next-gen adopters as well as interoperability and standards to deliver a seamless smart home,” said Daniel Holcomb, senior analyst at Parks Associates.
