EcoSmart Mobile lets you easily monitor & control your EcoSmart connected devices from anywhere in the world. EcoSmart thermostats, light switches, & power outlets can be controlled either individually or by device groups. This application can also help you save energy & maximize comfort by automatically adjusting your EcoSmart devices when you're home or away. This feature is optional and requires use of location services while the application is in the background. Continued use of location services running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.
