That is an app? Well, bet they were definitely shocked! I'd want the coffee, though! LOL.

Bearing in mind I lie in the UK, and his coffee machine was in California USA this was impressive. I will check with him, but, I believe from what he was saying that it was certainly usable.

I knew someone who had tried WeMo some time back who said the app had significant accessibility issues. This info is not particularly current by app standards, so it would be great to hear from anyone who's had a play recently.

I hadn't. It's a system by Belkin which is driven by an app. I have no idea if it's accessible or anything else. Here's the link to the app: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/wemo/id511376996?mt=8 And, here's the itunes description: Description App controls the WeMo Switch and WeMo Motion. The iPhone home remote. Control stuff in your home - from anywhere. Introducing WeMo. Belkin's new WeMo system is a family of simple, ingenious products that use your iPhone and your home Wi-FiR network to connect you to the things and people you love. WeMo is your home at your fingertips. WeMo can control just about anything. With WeMo you can turn on a light from another room, or turn it off from across town. You can put your home on a schedule-living room lights go on in the evening, kids' TV goes off at bedtime. You can check to make sure you turned the iron off, after you've already left. WeMo Switch is the iPhone home remote. The Complete WeMo System. The WeMo App runs on your iPhone and controls any electronic device you plug into a WeMo Switch-if you can plug it in, you can turn it on or off with WeMo. And WeMo Motion lets you control the devices when motion is detected. Have the floor lamp go on when you enter the living room, and turn off when you leave. WeMo Switch and WeMo Motion are available at major retailers. The WeMo family of products is great at automating repetitive tasks, and at allowing you to control your household in ways you'd never thought possible. The beauty of WeMo is it's completely modular. You can control as much or as little of your home as you like. Control one light, one room, or the whole house. There's no limit to what WeMo can do. If you can think of it, you can probably do it with WeMo. WeMo is your home at your fingertips.
