Abstract: This project presents a hybrid home automation system using the ESP32 microcontroller, combining voice control (via Google Assistant and IFTTT) and a custom mobile app to manage appliances like lights and fans. It enhances convenience, especially for the elderly and differently-abled, by enabling hands-free and remote operation. The system uses relay modules for device control and connects to Firebase Realtime Database for cloud-based monitoring and real-time status updates. It offers reliable performance even during internet outages and supports both individual and group device control, making it a flexible and user-friendly IoT solution for modern smart homes.

Keyword: hybrid home automation system, Firebase Realtime Database, real-time status updates.
