Explanation

• We can control the LEDs by the voice, through the Android app
• If we want to turn ON the light, we set the voice as the "Light ON"
• If we want to turn OFF the light, we set the voice as the "Light OFF"
• We can also set the voice for "All on" and "All Off".
• They can work on a one-by-one process.
• We want to download the app from the play store.
