SwitchBot has been in business since 2016 with a focus on products that make the existing items in your home smart. They have been busy releasing a series of new products this spring, and today they introduced the SwitchBot Universal Remote.
The SwitchBot Universal Remote makes it easy to control a wide range of devices that are controlled through infrared (IR) signals, including numerous brands of TVs, air conditioners, lights, fans, DVD players, and projectors. SwitchBot plans to keep the remote working with the latest smart home gear by updating its library of up to 83,934 remote control models every six months. Oil pump

The SwitchBot Universal Remote also leverages Bluetooth to seamlessly control other SwitchBot products including, but not limited to, the SwitchBot Bot, Plug Mini, Curtain, and Ceiling Light. In addition, the SwitchBot Universal Remote also leverages Bluetooth to control streaming media players including the Apple TV and Amazon Fire TV.
The SwitchBot Universal Remote includes a 2.4-inch LCD screen, touch wheel dial, large buttons, and a compact size that easily fits into your hand. It incorporates a 2000mAh battery that allows the remote to operate up to 150 days on a single charge. The remote also supports the ability to define scenes so multiple devices can be controlled with a single button press
In addition to supporting control of all the above devices, when used with a Matter-compatible SwitchBot hub, such as the SwitchBot Hub 2, the Universal Remote can control Matter compatible smart home devices in a home. This capability allows the SwitchBot Universal Remote to become a full smart home control point.
Matter-compatible smart home devices, as well as SwitchBot devices that are controlled through Bluetooth, can all be controlled without an active internet connection to the home. This assures that your Universal Remote will continue to operate as a smart home controller even during an internet outage.
For further compatibility information, you can visit the SwitchBot Help Center and you can find information on supported IR controlled devices here.
