My new apartment has a Nest so this is the first time I’m using my phone as a primary magic-wand type controller. Why has phone-as-magic-wand been a slow design pattern to catch on? Cost? Bad UX psychology? Bad design pattern for most applications? Engineering difficulty?

Yeah voice is for sure the domestic magic. Phone-as-magic-wand only works if the "magic" is faster than the boring way. Voice is usually more convenient than switches for me because I'm usually turning on multiple lights at once or changing the color of bulbs.

expectations different: with a switch/knob people expect instant response, whereas with voice commands they expect delay for interpretation before result
