Abstract: The evolution of the IoT technologies is spectacular in recent years, from simple devices able to receive messages and to count the number of steps, to complex devices which get information about the heartbeat rate monitoring, body position, calories burned and even warn us about the UV radiation. The large amount of data from IoT devices is important also for the business environment. We interviewed ten people from Bucharest, who already used at least one IoT device, to understand the impact of the use of IoT technologies on our lives. We identified common characteristics of the people who use IoT applications and devices, and a user profile was created. This could help to understand the advantages and disadvantages of the IoT technologies usage and how it influences people in their lives
