Why Smart Home Upgrades Require More Than Clicking "Update"
Your iPhone prompts you to update iOS; you tap "Install," and fifteen minutes later (or so), you're running the latest software. A Control4 upgrade doesn't quite work that way. Smart home systems are fundamentally different—they manage hardware across multiple rooms, communicate with dozens of devices, and rely on network infrastructure that can vary widely from home to home in Utah. Now that Control4 has released OS 4, many homeowners might assume that it’s a “click” to update. The reality is more nuanced. Hardware compatibility, network capacity, and even timing all factor into whether upgrading makes sense for your specific system. Show and Tell approaches these transitions methodically, because a successful upgrade isn't about just having the latest version in your Bountiful home—it's about ensuring your system actually works better afterward.
