A finely crafted app that works as the interface to your smart home, which can control your Bang & Olufsen audio and TV systems, move curtains, dim lights, view cameras and do much more.

An upgrade to BeoLiving Intelligence Pro elevates the BeoLiving app allowing further integration to home automation devices like Lutron, Nest, Ecobee, KNX, Philips Hue, among many others.
