ABC Adelaide: smart appliances and tech questions

Can an app wash your clothes? Not really, but can it help wash your clothes? That’s one question Pickr will answer on ABC for this segment.

The home may never be the same again now that technology has well and truly connected things up. It’s not just having a WiFi network talking to your phone, computer, and TV, but rather everything else, including your fridge, lights, and even your washing machine. And that raises an interesting question: can an app change how you wash your clothes?

Pickr’s Leigh Stark joins ABC Adelaide’s Rory McClaren to talk all about this, as well as new scams and new phones, plus answer an assortment of tech questions from listeners across South Australia.

Hear it on the ABC SA Mornings on the July 2 programme from 1 hour 8 minutes 24 seconds (1.08.24) before ABC takes the recording down, usually about a week later.
