Almost everyone I work with are apple users so android compatibility is not a primary consideration.Any feedback is greatly appreciated! 

You want contractors bidding apples to apples.

They all have their bad apples!

My name is Gabriel Cashman I'm 30 years old and I am originally from Northern and Southern California but relocated to Minneapolis Minnesota about 1.5 years ago.I currently work in technology at Apple and have held several positions in almost 10 years of employment there.

Therefore; when comparing costs, make sure you're comparing apples to apples.

I am two weeks into my vacation rental and I am also trying to automate the process.one thing I learned is the electronic door lock schlage sense lock I purchased will only work with an apple TV while I am out of town.

When you invest in Apple or Amazon with your IRA, you do not get to write software or otherwise provide services to one of those companies and have the benefits of your labor accrue to your IRA, do you? 

There’s the Kwickset Premis locks that are also up there in price and allow you to connect to an Apple TV or Apple Home Hub to change codes lock and unlock doors etc.

That is like saying each time Apple loses a products liability law suit, the shareholders must personally pay out their bank accounts to the plaintiff.

As Douglas mentioned, you're mixing apples and oranges.
