Good news for Thermostat users as the world famous name Honeywell announced its first HomeKit-enabled product, introducing a second-generation Lyric Round Wi-Fi-enabled thermostat with HomeKit support.

With other Homekit-compatible thermostats like the ecobee3 and the iDevices thermostat, the Honeywell Lyric is designed to compete with existing HomeKit-compatible thermostats and connects to a home’s Wi-Fi network to allow the thermostat to be controlled via Siri or by using an iOS device and the accompanying app. So, it can be controlled by smartphone also.
