HomeKit switches have been around for a while now, but did you know that you can use them to control your ceiling fan? Most simple on and off switches allow your fan to join in on the HomeKit accessories fun, and they are easy to install, just like a light switch. Some switches can adjust your fan's speed. We've gathered the best HomeKit switches for ceiling fans to take your smart home to the next level.
Speed control
Lutron PD-FSQN-WH Caseta Wireless Smart Fan
Staff Favorite
The Caseta Smart Fan Speed Control is the only HomeKit switch that can adjust your fan's speed. This enables you to run your fan at four different speeds with just a tap or via Siri. This switch also has a favorite fan speed button right in the center for those times when a physical button is easier to use.
Clean design
Eve Light Switch - Connected Wall Switch
Eve's light switch features a clean, minimal design that ditches buttons for a large touchpad. Tap anywhere on the button to turn your fan on and off. Even a hidden status indicator light beneath the touchpad helps guide you to the switch when it's dark.
Multi-purpose
Wemo WLS0403 Wi-Fi Light Switch, 3-Way
The beautifully designed Wemo WLS0403 switch offers 3-way lighting from the wall, an app, or your voice. Use to schedule ceiling fans to turn on before you arrive home, sync with sunrise and sunset, and much more.
No hub required
Leviton DH15S-1BZ 15A Decora Smart Switch
Light switch expert Leviton's smart switch uses Wi-Fi to connect to your home network. This allows the switch to work without a separate hub, keeping things simple. Commands sent to your fan are fast and reliable, cooling things down the instant you need them.
Bluetooth connection
Sylvania Smart+ In-Wall Switch
The Sylvania Smart+ In-Wall Switch is one of the few HomeKit switches that utilize Bluetooth for connectivity. Bluetooth creates a direct connection to HomeKit, meaning it works even without an internet connection if your iOS device is around. This makes Sylvania's switch perfect for trailers or other off-the-grid housing.
Simple solution
Lutron Caseta Smart Lighting Switch
Lutron's other ceiling fan solution is a simple two-button switch that costs a little less than its full-fledged fan control. This setup doesn't control your fan speeds, but it gets the job done by turning on and off your fan quickly and reliably. The switch is also easy to install, thanks to built-in wires.
Best HomeKit switches for ceiling fans
HomeKit switches for ceiling fans are a great way to get the air moving in your home. Automations can keep your air moving throughout the course of the day, preventing it from becoming stuffy, and speed adjustments provide the ultimate convenience. We love the Lutron Caseta Fan Speed Control for its ability to set fan speeds without having to pull a chain that could be hard to reach. This switch can crank things up instantly using the Home app or with just your voice using Siri when things get a little hot.
Want a switch that gets the job done and is especially beautiful as well? Consider the Wemo WLS0403, which offers multiple options in an electric design. Use the physical controls or use the Wemo app or your voice, of course!.
