Control4's X4 is the New Standard for Smart Home Control

It’s A Platform Overhaul That Puts Homeowners Back In The Driver's Seat

Control4's X4 is the New Standard for Smart Home Control

Control4 just dropped its X4 platform, which is so much more than your typical software update with a few tweaks and bug fixes. X4 represents a fundamental shift in how you can interact with your home automation system, moving from basic device control to truly personalized living experiences.

The jump from Control4's OS 3 to X4 marks a clear departure from the old way of doing things. OS 3 gave you solid control over your devices, which was fine and cutting-edge for its time. Now, X4 gives you something different: a system that learns your patterns and adapts to how you live. Instead of forcing you to remember which button controls what, X4 anticipates what you need and puts it right where you expect to find it.
