Every day we aim for a relaxed routine and technology makes it happen through automation. A home automation system is a solution that enables automation of home appliances. Real world entities can be remotely connected with an effective and booming technology, IOT. Internet of Things (IOT) is one of the easiest and the most effective technology that anticipates the idea of remotely associating and observing the real-world objects using Internet. This paper intends to focus on the design and implementation of a cost-effective yet flexible, adjustable and secured home-based automation system using a Smartphone in order to enable the authorized user to control the home appliances in on/off, to regulate the output power, and to set the usage timing which would be based on an Android App. It contains the commands like switching on/off the AC, Fan, Washing machine, etc. Along with this, we use GSM technology which controls the devices by sending a single SMS in the absence of internet connectivity.
