The SmartThings Hub connects to all your smart devices, the SmartThings cloud, and the SmartThings app. But what if you're not quite sure which version of the SmartThings Hub you own? Let's find out which one you have, and all the great features it can offer your home.
At this time, SmartThings does not support having multiple hubs in one location. You won't be able to control the same devices using multiple hubs because devices can only be paired to one controller at a time. However, you can control multiple hubs from one account, provided each hub has its own location.
When you're relaxing on the sofa after a hectic day, the last thing you want to do is get back up, even if it means your dinner will burn! Luckily, you can use your range's built-in Wi-Fi with the Smart Control feature in the SmartThings app. It lets you monitor and control your gas or electric range using your phone. You can even adjust the cooking time and oven temperature remotely, without ever leaving the sofa.
Certain Samsung cooktops have a built-in Wi-Fi module that lets you sync the cooktop with the SmartThings app, where you can remotely monitor and control some of its functions. However, on the cooktop itself, this feature is called Smart Connect. Once you've enabled Smart Connect on the cooktop, you'll be able to connect it to your phone and the app.
Missing out on updates is never fun, especially when it comes to SmartThings. That's because updates can install new features, fix annoying bugs, or add more compatible smart devices. And not to mention, a recent update just gave SmartThings a brand new user interface.
Depending where you are in your home, the Wi-Fi strength can vary. For example, maybe when you're near the router it works fine, but as soon as you go upstairs, you have trouble staying connected. Well, if you create an open mesh network with SmartThings Wifi hubs, you'll nip that problem in the bud.
More and more smart devices are hitting the market, but how do you know which ones are good? Besides Wi-Fi hubs and smart hubs, Samsung also makes its own SmartThings devices that are reliable and easy to connect. Keep an eye on your home and keep your loved ones safe by adding Samsung brand SmartThings devices like a Motion Sensor, Water Leak Detector, and more.
SmartThings Wifi lets you put your own touch on every aspect of your home's Wi-Fi network. You can rename the SmartThings Wifi hub, add a new password for each family member, and set up multiple passwords for your frequent house guests and friends.
The SmartThings Tracker uses GPS and cloud technology to monitor the whereabouts of your family, pets, or items. Check out the following frequently asked questions to see how you can get the most out of your Tracker, so you can keep everyone safe.
SmartThings will occasionally push firmware updates to hubs to improve their performance and keep things running smoothly. Fortunately, checking your hub's firmware version is easy to do. In fact, there are several ways you can check to make sure your hub is up to date.
The SmartThings Arrival Sensor lets you stay connected to people, pets, and even cars by notifying you when they arrive at or leave from a certain location. However, the day may come when you misplace your Arrival Sensor. Luckily, you can easily locate it using the SmartThings app on your phone.
If you're having any trouble with the initial setup on your SmartThings Hub, you may need to reset the Welcome Code. The SmartThings Hub v2 (2015) and the SmartThings Hub v1 (2013) are each given a unique 6-character Welcome Code that is required to activate them. However, keep in mind the SmartThings Hub v3 (2018) and SmartThings Wifi do not use Welcome Codes.
Warning: All device connections and configurations associated with the hub will be lost when you perform a factory reset. All devices connected to the hub must be reset or excluded before they can be reconnected.
Technology has come a long way since we were kids. Now that home appliances like your range can connect to the internet, they can receive firmware updates to fix and prevent issues without ever needing a visit from a service technician. Once connected, you'll get firmware updates automatically, but we'll show you how to check for one when needed.
Samsung earbuds can be used to control SmartThings devices for those times when the phone is just a little inconvenient. Imagine you're working out and your phone is strapped to your arm or in a bag. Rather than drying your hands and digging out your phone, you could just talk to your buds! The earbuds, when paired and connected to a phone, can listen to your voice and control your phone's virtual assistant, including Bixby, Google, and Alexa. So when you need to save time, tell your earbuds!

Not only that, the SmartThings app can remotely control some of your fridge's functions. If your Family Hub fridge isn't acting as it should, you can perform a factory reset on it as well.

The more, the merrier. To let your family or friends use your smart devices, you can invite them to be members of your SmartThings account.

Now they can control and manage any of the connected devices in that location.
Note: Inviting members is only available for locations. You cannot add a member directly to a room, only to the main location.
