1. A system for wireless communication, comprising:
- at least one processor; and
memory having instructions configured to cause the at least one processor to;
wirelessly communicate with electronic devices operable for wireless cross-communication directly with each other independent of any remote server device for forming a wireless mesh network of the electronic devices;
automatically control settings, activities, and/or functionality of at least one of the electronic devices; and
directly communicate with the at least one electronic device such that the at least one electronic device obtains environmental data.
