The SwitchBot Blind Tilt clips onto the wand of horizontal blinds you already own, so you can tilt them open or closed from your phone without replacing a single slat. A small high-precision motor adjusts the angle to within about 2 degrees, and a built-in light sensor can auto-tilt as the sun moves so a room never gets too bright or too dark. The included solar panel trickle-charges the battery, which means you rarely plug it in. Bluetooth covers in-room control and schedules; pairing the separate SwitchBot Hub adds Alexa and Google Home voice control. Best fit for renters and anyone who wants smart blinds without drilling, rewiring, or buying all-new window treatments.

Frequently asked questions
Does it work with my existing blinds?
It fits standard horizontal blinds that tilt with a wand. It does not work on cordless roller shades or vertical blinds, so check that yours have a tilt wand first.
Do I need the SwitchBot Hub?
No for basic use. Bluetooth handles app control and schedules in-room. You only need the Hub if you want Alexa, Google Home, or control from outside the house.
How is it powered?
It has a built-in rechargeable battery and ships with a small solar panel that keeps it topped up, so most people rarely need to plug it in.
Can I still move the blinds by hand?
Yes. The motor does not lock the wand, so you can tilt the blinds manually anytime without disconnecting anything.
