I mean, I'm a moron, but I know the basics are: nuclear reaction creates heat, boils water into steam, steam turns turbine, turbine spins magnet inside copper coil. Magic! I still don't understand some lightswitches though...especially the kind that require an app. I'm not downloading an app to turn on a light in my house.
Any basic household things that require an app belong in the trash.
I can't tell you how many times I've been interested in a product or service, only to immediately lose all interest when I see they require an app. Go fuck yourself.
Putting an application's functionality in a hardware interface can be prohibitively expensive. You need a good interface for designing a weekly program for curtains, coloured lighting, and fridge/freezer noise profile, for example.
None of that needs an app or touch screen.
