The Beakn app controls all 170+ Beakn products: four smart switch types, motorised curtains, smart plugs, IR blasters, energy monitors, sensors for gas, motion, temperature, humidity, door contact, and power modules. One app, one account, all devices across multiple properties.

Yes — all three simultaneously. Beakn integrates with Amazon Alexa (via Alexa skill), Google Assistant (via Google Home), and Apple Siri (via Siri Shortcuts).

Offline Mode Built-In

Internet down? Basic ON/OFF control still works through local Wi-Fi network. Advanced features like cloud automation pause until reconnected, but your home keeps functioning. No dependency on our servers for core operation.

Voice Control Through Every Major Assistant

Beakn integrates natively with Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant, and Apple Siri — plus deeper Apple ecosystem integration through Siri Shortcuts and Apple Home. Link your Beakn account once through the app, and every switch becomes voice-controllable immediately. No hub required. No paid subscription. No third-party automation service. Voice commands work even when your phone is locked or in another room — because the voice assistant communicates directly with Beakn’s platform.

Why You Can Trust Beakn’s App

Beakn is built by a manufacturer with 10+ years of experience producing smart home hardware for Indian homes. The app is 100% in-house — not built on Tuya, Smart Life, or any white-label platform. This matters because most Indian smart home brands rebrand generic Chinese apps. Beakn owns every line of code, which is why features like Safe Mode voltage protection (BIS IS 12360 compliant surge thresholds) and WhatsApp critical alerts exist. Generic apps don’t have these because they can’t customise.

Frequently Asked Questions

The Beakn home automation app has 165 features included free with every device purchase. Features are organised across 9 functional categories: switch control (20), home dashboard (18), scenes and automation (22), scheduling and timers (14), energy monitoring (12), voice and Apple ecosystem (34), sensors and security (18), remotes and IR control (8), and multi-user and setup (19). No feature requires a subscription.

No. Beakn does not charge any subscription, monthly fee, or per-feature payment for the app. Every feature — including scenes, schedules, voltage protection, voice control, energy history, WhatsApp alerts, multi-user family sharing, and OTA updates — is included free forever with every Beakn device. The ₹648 entry-level switch and the ₹10,322 glass panel get identical app features.

Yes, for basic ON/OFF control. Beakn’s offline mode uses the local Wi-Fi network to send commands directly from your phone to the switches without routing through the cloud. This means basic control continues even if your ISP is down. Advanced features like cloud-based automation, voice assistants, and remote access require internet, but core switching never fails due to connectivity issues.

Yes. Beakn integrates with Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant, and Apple Siri natively. You can link all three assistants to the same Beakn account, and each family member can use their preferred assistant. For Apple users, Beakn offers 34 additional integration features through Siri Shortcuts, Apple Home, HomePod as hub, Apple Watch control, and Focus Mode-based home automation.

Beakn supports unlimited secondary users and guest users per home with simultaneous multi-user access. No session limits, no login conflicts. Primary access can be transferred between accounts. Guest access expires automatically after a set duration. Each user has their own login but sees the same home. The full multi-user system is detailed on the Multi-User and Setup features page.

Yes. The Beakn app is available on Google Play Store (Android 8.0+) and Apple App Store (iOS 14+) with 100% feature parity across both platforms. A family using both Android and iPhone can control the same home from either device. iOS users get additional Apple ecosystem features (34 integrations including HomePod, Apple Watch, CarPlay, and Focus Mode).

The Beakn app receives updates every 6–8 weeks through Google Play Store and Apple App Store. Updates include new automation types, sensor integrations, language additions, interface refinements, and security patches. Your hardware gains new features over time without replacing devices. OTA firmware updates for switches are delivered wirelessly through the app — no technician visit required.
