OmniSmart Connected Zebra Shades

True smart home integration means your zebra shades are not just motorized—they are connected. OmniSmart Connected Zebra Shades are equipped with native wireless protocols that communicate directly with your existing smart home ecosystem. No proprietary hubs, no clunky adapters, no subscription fees. Choose Wi‑Fi for direct connection to your home network (control via app or voice), Zigbee 3.0 for compatibility with Amazon Echo Plus and Samsung SmartThings, or Z‑Wave Plus for Ring, Wink, and Vera. All shades include a built‑in signal repeater, strengthening your mesh network with every shade you add. Set schedules based on sunrise and sunset, create groups ("Living Room West Wall"), and integrate with other smart devices (stagger bands when your thermostat enters "Away" mode). Available on all zebra shade band widths and fabrics. Custom‑sized to your exact window dimensions. The smartest zebra shades you'll ever own.

Precision Band Alignment

OmniSmart motors deliver 1‑degree incremental band positioning, giving you exceptionally fine control over light and privacy. Program presets for different times of day—fully aligned (≈80% light) for morning brightness, partially staggered (≈50% light) for afternoon glare control, fully staggered (95%+ light block) for evening privacy. The motor stores your preferences and can activate them by schedule, sunrise/sunset, or voice command.

Battery or Hardwired

Battery motors are ideal for retrofits. The battery pack is concealed inside the headrail, and a single charge lasts 3–5 years with typical use (about two cycles per day). Rechargeable lithium‑ion packs are included, and low‑battery alerts appear in the app. Hardwired motors connect to low‑voltage transformers—plug‑in or in‑wall—and provide unlimited runtime with zero maintenance. They’re recommended for new construction or shades that will be operated frequently.

Works with All Major Platforms

OmniSmart motors natively support multiple ecosystems:

  • Wi‑Fi — Direct connection to your home network, no hub required; control via our app (iOS/Android) or voice assistants

  • Zigbee 3.0 — Compatible with Amazon Echo Plus, Samsung SmartThings, Hubitat

  • Z‑Wave Plus — Works with Ring, Wink, Vera

  • Proprietary RF — For standalone remote control without network dependency

Integration modules are also available for Control4, Crestron, Savant, and Lutron.

Sunrise/Sunset Automation

Using your home’s GPS coordinates, the app can automatically align bands at sunrise and stagger them at sunset. This enhances comfort and improves energy efficiency—staggered bands during hot summer afternoons reduce cooling load. A built‑in vacation mode can randomize band alignment and lift positions to help deter intruders when you’re away.

Scene Creation

Coordinate multiple shades and smart devices with customizable scenes:

  • “Morning” — Align bands, raise to 50%

  • “Movie Time” — Stagger bands, fully lower, dim lights

  • “Away” — Randomize band alignment and lift positions

Scenes can be triggered by voice, app, schedule, or sensors (e.g., stagger bands automatically when the room temperature exceeds 78°F).

Quiet Operation

OmniSmart motors are engineered for acoustic comfort, operating below 35 dBA at 3 feet—quieter than a library. The intentionally slow motor speed eliminates abrupt movement and ensures smooth, graceful transitions.

Retrofit Kits Available

Already own manual zebra shades? Upgrade them with our retrofit motor kit, which includes a motor, battery pack, and remote. Installation takes about 20 minutes with basic tools and is compatible with most zebra‑shade headrails.
