dt giveaways win fitbit aria wi fi smart scale fitbitaria

We try to have some fun here in the DT offices, but when you write all day, you also sit on your butt all day. We’ve liked the Fitbit Aria since we first stood on it back in 2012. If you’ve never used one, you’re gonna like it, too. Aria will automatically upload your weight, body fat percentage, and body mass index to Fitbit’s app and Web service each time you step on it. Fitbit has Android and iPhone apps, so you’re set there. Just connect the scale up to Wi-Fi.

The best Apple HomeKit devices for 2023

While not as widespread as Google Home or Amazon Alexa, Apple HomeKit remains one of the most popular smart home ecosystems of 2023. The software plays well with iOS devices, and several other gadgets such as smart lights, smart locks, thermostats, and cameras can be controlled using the fancy technology. If you’re looking to build your smart home around Apple’s ecosystem, here are the best HomeKit devices available today.
Locks

HomeKit doesn’t have the largest selection of smart locks, but that doesn’t really matter when you have something as well-rounded as the Aqara Smart Lock U100. Not only does it offer full HomeKit support, but you’ll even gain access to Apple home keys -- allowing you to unlock your door with your iPhone or Apple Watch. There’s also the standard keypad for entering a passcode, along with a fingerprint sensor that can store several dozen fingerprints (so your whole family can enter the home without worrying about forgetting their password or smartphone).
