Want it printed?

Tap your phone on the wall to run a routine. These plates hide NFC tags inside the print, so one tap can turn off the lights, start a playlist, share your Wi-Fi or run any smart-home scene you set up. The pack includes stick-on NFC wall plates with 1 to 4 tap spots and toggle switch covers with 2 tap spots built in.
