Oh, don't get me wrong. I had an LG washer and dryer with those "smart" features. Out of curiosity I tried it once. The app wanted every permission short of asking for my DNA and to be my power of attorney. And then once setup it just... barely worked. It was buggier than an ActiveX plugin running on IE5. I nuked the app off my phone and booted the LG's off the network and didn't touch the smart crap for the rest of the 5 years I had them.
