Mine just beep when they're done.

The only two things that I like about smart appliances:

  • remote preheat for the oven (ready to pop the frozen pizza in right when I walk in the door)
  • cycle end notification for the washer (when I'm in the basement I can't hear the sound to know when to move the clothes to the dryer)

I can't imagine needing a notification on the dishwasher (I'm never wanting for it to finish to do something else) or refrigerator (just what even would it do).

I guess the smart control of the hvac is nice (turn it on when I'm on my way back from vacation so the temperature is perfect when I get home), but does that count as an appliance?

A notification you've left the fridge door open could be handy.

I love that "door open" warning of my fridge, and I also like that I get a notification when the fridge unexpectedly disconnects from the network (which usually means that the power has gone out, so I can go and check before all my food has died).

Also, the notifications when then laundry machine finishes are handy (so I can unload it and avoid smelly clothes).
