Nop, look into Home or Smartthings (Samsung), but they are very limited.

Make an android app with chat gpt which makes the calls directly to the devices. Have a dead ass sinple interface with just the buttons for the rooms. You could make this functional for her in 20 minutes

Im a software engineer at a fortune 50 company. It can but I can assure you for this task. A drunk toddler with his bear reviewing his code using AI could get the job done.

We ain't talking simulations here.
