Most of these boil down to my forgetfulness and poor concentration. So I use task lists, calendars, and alarms extensively.

Lab beta for the FRITZ!Box 5690 Pro that adds Matter support ahead of the official FRITZ!OS 8.50 release. This is the first FRITZ!Box model to gain Matter bridge functionality directly through the router itself, rather than requiring a separate FRITZ!Smart Gateway.
