Effortlessly manage your Samsung Smart TVs, appliances, and a wide array of SmartThings-compatible devices with the SmartThings app. Designed to streamline your smart home experience, SmartThings allows you to connect and control your devices with ease, all from one convenient platform.

SmartThings boasts compatibility with hundreds of smart home brands, enabling you to oversee your entire smart ecosystem, including your Samsung Smart TV and smart home appliances, in one centralized location. Whether it's your Samsung smart TVs, smart appliances, smart speakers, or popular brands like Ring, Nest, and Philips Hue, SmartThings integrates them all seamlessly.

Not only can you connect and monitor these devices, but you can also control them more efficiently. Utilize voice assistants such as Alexa, Bixby, and Google Assistant to manage your smart devices hands-free, enhancing your home automation experience.

Key Features

• Remote Control: Manage and monitor your home environment from anywhere in the world.
• Custom Routines: Set up routines triggered by time, weather, or device status to ensure your home operates smoothly without your constant attention.
• Shared Access: Grant access to other users, allowing them to control your smart home devices.

While SmartThings is optimized for Samsung smartphones, some features might be limited when used with other brands' devices. Additionally, availability of certain features may vary by country. For even more convenience, you can install SmartThings on Wear OS-based watches, which provides quick access to routines and device control through the SmartThings tile on your watch face. However, SmartThings for Wear OS requires a connection to a mobile phone.
