I've been through homekit before but smartthings is an app I keep coming back to. With native integration with google home, and android phones, and works well. A few missing features on the new now default app from the old that cam be added and approved.

I bought this button as a cheap alternative to a Hue switch. The room in question only has a single floor lamp and so asking Alexa to turn it on and off all the time was getting annoying - sometimes a switch is easier. The lag between activating the switch and the light coming on is several seconds. Sometimes more than 5 seconds. That may not sound like a lot, but turn on a light and then stand there for 5 seconds - it's more annoying than shouting at the echo to turn things on.
While this device technically does what it is supposed to, it doesn't practically work for my application, and I really don't have another use for it.

I chose SmartThings because of the wide support of products and the automation support. This hub reaches my entire house, no device ever loses connectivity. I have about thirty lights, a handful of motion sensors, cameras, and other miscellaneous devices connected to the hub and the hub is a champ.

Replaced an iris hub with this. It’s mostly okay except it says it should connect to an iris smart outlet and I can’t get it to connect. Not sure who to blame for that. The outlet was connected and working without issue before.

It does take a long time to learn about what it can and cannot do, but I still like it.
It could use better instructions, or even just list a website with instructions telling how to do things with it, or even what it is compatible with, and what it isn’t compatible with
