Nowadays, the home automation system plays a very important role and the home automation industry is changing quickly at a faster pace. Since the technology changes day-by-day the method of controlling the home appliances also varies. The home automation is mainly required for the people in their oldage or physically challenged. In this paper, the authors propose a method based on Wifi EPS8266 module, to control the home appliances, such as AC, Fans, Refrigerator, TV, etc. So that unnecessary usage of power could be avoided. This can be controlled via an Android App. The household appliances are connected to relay unit and the relay unit are controlled via a Wifi module through Android app. This method will overcome the problem of manual control of the household appliances.
