Is it a good idea to buy a cheap tablet on say Amazon to run my home automation apps? That way it’s always connected and ready to control? My phone has been glitchy and takes a bit to connect after I’ve been gone.

Amazon Fire HD 10 Plus tablet along with table charging dock. Bought both from Amazon for only $99.
I use Home Assistant for my home automation system. I side loaded the Google Play Store and have it running with fully kiosk. Display turns on based on motion detection. Turns off after no motion for 1 minute. I use several different dashboards, just depending on what I’d like to control. Works great!
That’s cool!! I was just looking at the fire tablet. I’m so new to this. I’ll look into home assist too.
