Smart Cord may be the simplest app on the store, it's an on/off switch

Jan 12th 2012 7:00 PM EST


Bombarded by CES news? This won't take long to read. The Smart Cord app is basically just one button, designed to control a simple but clever Bluetooth power cord. If you have an outdoor fountain that you like to turn off at night, or anything that needs a remote-controlled on/off switch, Smart Cord is actually pretty neat. The app is free, but the 3-foot cord will set you back $39.95.

The ZMote folks are planning a few other remote-controlled switches and cords, but those won't be available until later this year.
