smart appliance
WiFi-enabled home machine
A smart appliance is a household device—refrigerator, thermostat, washing machine—that connects to the internet and can be monitored or controlled remotely.
Smart appliances may adjust settings automatically, send alerts, or integrate with voice assistants: The smart appliance notified me when the laundry was done.
The "smart" indicates network connectivity and programmable features beyond basic function.
