1Connect via USB-C or bluetooth. Availability on iOS and Android coming soon. Features subject to change and availability.

◊Optional financing is available through third party providers, is subject to an eligibility check by the lender, lender terms, and may not be available everywhere or on all products.

Natural language capabilities estimated in late 2026. Certain features only in select countries and languages. Please check local availability. Software updates required for new features.

AI automations are for convenience only, not safety or security-critical use cases. Do not create automations that could result in injury or harm if they fail to start or stop. Automations can depend on working internet, Wi-Fi, and service availability from both MakerMods and the third parties who manufacture the devices included in the automations. Automations may not always work, and MakerMods isn't responsible for any harm or losses incurred due to automations.
