Apps have taken over devices.
The biggest invasion happened when the mobile phone made the pager, camera and tablets redundant.
My Google Home Assistant and Alexa lie idle because I couldn’t find a gap for them to fill.
I no longer need a Kindle because the app enables reading on any device.
The smart TV keeps my husband occupied, as I’ve never been an avid TV watcher.
We did have a video doorbell in the house we previously lived in, but we now use it only for a few weeks off and on.
WHAT I NEED
Spectacle detector
I keep forgetting where I left the most essential item. I wish it had a ringer indicating the location after dialling a number.
Translator
I would like to translate my blogs and videos into local languages to find a wider audience. I use Google Input Tools, but editing takes time.
Pup Control
A detector and remote control for my pup will also help, as she loves hiding in obscure places, and I cannot match her agility when she jumps to greet a weary visitor.
Remote switches
I’d love to switch off the lights and fans in other rooms or control the microwave from other rooms. Bluetooth devices do exist, but I don’t own any of them.
AI to translate animal language.
I wish I could converse with my dogs better than I do now.
Creative Experiments and More 
I’d love to be able to converse in doggy language, with my parent’s dog. What fun that would be! X

All these devices can be very useful, but perhaps it might cause an overload of devices

Yeah, and then a controller device to manage all these 🙂

I think we are a long way off from understanding animal language but there are plenty of devices out there with smart tags that can help you to find things. I think there are things that will feed your fish, or cat or dog, and there are also robots that you could program to find your dog. I am going to get some of those devices that will turn my lights on and off, as that seems like a nice convenience.
