  • Publication number: 20240019829
    Abstract: A home appliance, a home appliance system, and a controlling method thereof are disclosed. The home appliance includes an input interface, a communication interface, a processor, and a motor, wherein the processor is configured to receive input of an instruction regarding whether to activate a noise control mode from a user through the input interface, receive notification information including at least one of a received call or a received message from a terminal device interlocked with the home appliance through the communication interface, and based on the noise control mode being in an inactivated state, ignore the notification information and maintain the driving speed of the motor.
