What This Means for You

With Apple Music now fully integrated into Control4’s customizable smart home platform, users can enjoy a richer, more immersive music experience, all controlled effortlessly through touch, voice, or other user interfaces. Here are some of the key benefits:

  • Infuse Music into Your Daily Life: Imagine starting your day with your favorite playlist gently streaming through your bedroom speakers as your "Wake Up" scene triggers. Or enjoy a relaxing evening with a specially curated playlist that plays as your lights dim and shades close. With Control4’s integration of Apple Music, you can easily weave music into your daily routines and home scenes.

  • Enhanced Audio Quality: Control4’s advanced audio capabilities complement Apple Music’s top-tier features like Listen Now, offering high-fidelity sound throughout your home. You can browse curated mixes, recommended playlists, or your own music library directly from the Control4 interface, and even adjust the EQ controls to match your personal listening style.

  • Multiple Control Options: Whether you prefer using the Control4 app, Apple Watch, or Control4’s touchscreens, accessing Apple Music has never been easier. You can select your media, control playback, and manage your music zones all from your preferred device.

Why This Matters for Your Smart Home Experience

For current Control4 users, this integration brings an exciting new dimension to your home automation setup. Apple Music’s seamless integration means you can create custom playlists and integrate them into professionally programmed scenes that include lighting, shades, and temperature control—all to match your mood and activities.

If you’re considering a Control4 system, this update makes Control4 an even more compelling choice for your smart home. It’s not just about controlling lights or setting up routines; it’s about creating a holistic environment that elevates every moment in your home.
