With SmartThings, smart home devices work together seamlessly to deliver a connected living experience designed to make life simpler at home. SmartThings works with hundreds of third-party devices, such as voice assistants, door locks, lightbulbs, cameras and thermostats, making it the ideal choice for people looking to personalize their smart home. SmartThings gives plenty of choices to people who have already invested in smart home products from Samsung and other popular brands like Ring, Iris by Lowe\u2019s, Arlo, Ecobee, Philips Hue, Schlage and\u00a0many more<\/a>.<\/p>\n

For consumers who\u2019ve invested in Iris by Lowe\u2019s sensors, SmartThings already works with the majority of these sensors and will support the full line in time for Iris users to easily transition to SmartThings when the Iris by Lowe\u2019s service ends on March 31. All that\u2019s needed to connect is a SmartThings Hub<\/a> ($69.99) with a compatible Android or iOS device*, and Samsung\u2019s support team is available to assist with the migration process.<\/p>\n

These small devices are useful to sense motion and detect opening or closing doors and windows. Sensors can be managed with the SmartThings app to easily create personalized automations. With the SmartThings app, users can do things like automatically turn on lights when entering a home at night, receive alerts when a door is opened while away, or turn off an air conditioning when windows are opened.<\/p>\n
