i aint no expert but i have separate VLANs for my phones & pcs and a separate one for IOTs.
I noticed most IOTs do not just communicate locally, but also via internet. So even on separate VLANs, as long as they are all connected to internet, they will work. My Meross smart plugs, garage doors and a TP Link light bulb work this way.
Just make sure you research in advance for your IOTs. Things like a Chromecast, Apple TV and a printer like to be on the same network as your controlling device like your phone.
