After appearing in stores earlier this year, IKEA's TRÅDFRI shortcut button is finally available for purchase through the US retail giant's online store. Seen today by u / Mggn2510z on the HomeKit subreddit, the TRÅDFRI shortcut button provides convenient physical controls for smart home accessories at an affordable price.

Start the day in the best way with the push of a button - place the shortcut button next to the bed to turn on the lights, roll the blinds and play your favorite morning song to wake you up. Place the shortcut button next to the front door so that when it's time to leave, you can turn off all the lights in your house just by pressing the button.

The TRÅDFRI shortcut button also supports HomeKit integration when associated with the TRÅDFRI Gateway. Like the best HomeKit buttons and remotes, the button supports assigning scenes and actions specific to accessories. In addition, with automation, the shortcut button can go far beyond just two actions.

To make it easier to identify, IKEA includes a set of six stickers to go with the button. IKEA offers three printed stickers that describe everyday uses, such as switch lights, and three blank stickers to customize to suit your needs.

The TRÅDFRI shortcut button from IKEA is now available for $ 7.99, although it seems that its availability is limited to certain locations according to the product list. The TRÅDFRI gateway is available for $ 35 and is available in a variety of lighting and control packages.
