Gira voice control
Control your smart home with a simple voice command. Amazon or Google voice assistants act as your personal helpers, taking care of many tasks as soon as you speak. It is direct and intuitive, giving you more time for the important – and enjoyable – things in life.
Benefits of voice control in your home
Voice control is transforming the way we interact with our surroundings. It allows us to carry out everyday tasks with simple words instead of physical actions. When arriving at home, for example, you can switch on lights, adjust the heating, or play music without touching a switch or picking up a device.

This not only promotes a more comfortable lifestyle but also supports people with physical impairments by offering more independence in their own home. Intelligent device control can also help reduce energy consumption by ensuring that heating and lighting are only activated when truly needed. In this way, voice control combines comfort with efficiency and creates a home that adapts to the needs of its residents.

Control your KNX smart home with a voice command
With a Gira KNX system, you benefit from a wide range of practical functions, from automated lighting to energy-efficient heating. You can give instructions via the app or by using voice commands. With smart-home voice control, you can simplify many routines throughout your day. A short “Alexa, good morning” can activate a preset scene: softly dimmed light fills the room, the blinds rise, and the radio switches on.
Options with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant
If you choose a KNX system, you can control building functions via the Gira X1 server or the Gira HomeServer. Once installed, all functions can be activated or deactivated using the relevant voice commands through Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant. There are many options for smart-home voice control, including:
Switching and dimming lights
Setting light colour and colour temperature
Retrieving lighting scenes
Requesting status information
Starting and stopping music

Gira voice control for greater accessibility at home
Controlling your home by voice also improves accessibility in a smart home. People with physical impairments can activate functions that could otherwise be difficult to access. The light upstairs is still on? Simply tell your home to switch it off – no matter which floor you are currently on. Thanks to smart-home voice control, your connected devices become effortlessly intuitive to use.
By the way: each new feature learned by Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant also makes your KNX system a little smarter.
