3/29/2017
Samsung Connect is a simple way to control and monitor all your devices from one unified app, bringing everything into one place. Samsung Connect’s automatic connectivity, convenient device integration and easy setup help simplify your life and expand the ecosystem of devices into every aspect of your home and life.
Samsung Connect delivers on the vision of an integrated, cohesive, easy-to-use IoT ecosystem
- Simple: Samsung Connect enables simple integration and control of smart devices through a single app. For a seamless experience, SmartThings devices automatically connect to the app with just one click. Once a user’s settings are confirmed, they can easily share their profiles with family members or roommates for simple management between devices. In addition, Samsung Connect features a clean and user-friendly interface that is effortless to understand.
- Unified: Samsung Connect brings the management of disparate Samsung and SmartThings IoT devices into one unified app, allowing users to control and monitor their entire connected home from one place. Users can check the status of wide range of their devices by looking at a single dashboard, as well as change settings from one screen. Samsung Connect also integrates with Samsung’s smart TVs, providing always-on notifications that can send alerts to your TV or phone to enable enhanced security and connectivity.
- Customizable: Users can control multiple devices via personalized commands and rules, as well as set up customized modes to negate the need to perform multiple tasks individually. For example, “morning mode” could turn on your lights and begin playing music. “Movie mode” could dim your lights and turn on your surround sound speakers. All of these modes are stored in your Samsung Connect profile for ease of use.
