Apple’s Ease of Use Meets Sophisticated Home Automation

For Apple users, the elegance of controlling multiple devices through a unified ecosystem is practically second nature. Savant's new OS 11 brings that same intuitive experience to luxury home automation, deeply integrating with the Apple devices and services you use daily. From Siri voice commands through your HomePod to Apple Watch complications for instant control to CarPlay integration during your commute, OS 11 transforms your home into a natural extension of your Apple world.

While Savant has always provided superb support for Apple users, this latest release represents Savant's most comprehensive integration with Apple technologies yet. It allows homeowners to manage lighting, climate, entertainment, security, and more through familiar interfaces. Whether using your iPhone, iPad, or even Siri to set the perfect scene for dinner, OS 11 responds with the same seamless reliability you expect from your Apple devices.

Control Your Home, Apple Style

Savant OS 11's Apple integration goes far beyond basic compatibility. The system transforms every Apple device in your ecosystem into an intuitive control point for your entire home. Using the Savant Pro app on your iPhone or iPad, you can manage everything from lighting and climate to entertainment and security with the same fluid interface you're accustomed to in your favorite Apple apps.

The integration runs deep throughout the Apple ecosystem. Raise your wrist to adjust room temperatures or activate scenes directly from your Apple Watch complications with support for Shortcuts. Ask Siri through your HomePod to prepare the house for movie night, instantly dimming lights, adjusting the temperature, and configuring your entertainment system. Create personalized Apple Shortcuts that trigger multiple actions—imagine your "Good Morning" shortcut gradually raising the shades, warming the house, and starting your favorite playlist.

Even when you're away, CarPlay integration lets you prepare your home before you arrive. Tell Siri to "Set Welcome Home Scene" during your commute, and OS 11 will adjust your home's lighting, temperature, and security settings to welcome you back. And if you have an EV, you can even optimize your EV charger to begin charging when rates are optimal overnight. 

Beyond Apple: What’s New in Savant OS 11

Savant's latest operating system introduces several enhancements that expand your home automation capabilities. The new camera and entry system feature enhanced security and convenience with improved streaming quality and more responsive gate/entry controls. When visitors arrive, you'll receive immediate notifications on your Apple devices, complete with live video feeds and easy access controls.

Energy management takes center stage with intelligent EV charging optimization. The system automatically manages charging schedules around your daily routine and energy rates while integrating with the broader Savant Power System to optimize your home's overall energy consumption. Whether monitoring usage patterns or managing power during grid outages, OS 11 gives you complete control through the familiar Savant Pro app interface.

Scene creation becomes even more powerful with OS 11's enhanced climate and lighting controls. The system's Daylight Mode automatically adjusts color temperature throughout the day to match natural light. New entertainment features include a personalized dashboard for music services and cross-service searching for a seamless audio experience. You can create sophisticated scenes that coordinate lighting, climate, entertainment, and security settings, all accessible through your Apple devices.

Unlock Savant’s Full Potential with Essentials

Savant Essentials, the company's subscription-based service, enhances your OS 11 experience with additional features and capabilities. The service includes secure cloud backup of your entire home configuration so your personalized settings and scenes are always protected. Regular software updates keep your system current with the latest features and security enhancements while also enabling advanced integrations with third-party devices and systems.

The subscription includes valuable features like enhanced voice control with natural language processing and a web-based Home Manager dashboard for system monitoring and user management. An innovative intercom service enables room-to-room communication without additional hardware, allowing you to create custom call groups and whole-home paging—all accessible through your Apple devices.
