Following the partnership, Smartthings will be integrated with Hyundai and Kia’s next-gen infotainment system. Drivers will be able to more easily track down their cars if they are lost or stolen leveraging SmartThings Find.

Samsung, Hyundai, and Kia will expand the use of SmartThings to include in-vehicle health monitoring, pet care solutions that optimize vehicle environments for pets, as well as integration with smart apartment solutions and SDVs.

Your Galaxy phone’s Quick Panel can also be used to control air conditioning and check the remaining range from the device. Vehicles can also be added to the connected SmartThings ecosystem for effortless monitoring and control.

“Through our collaboration with Hyundai and Kia, customers will experience the convenience of SmartThings not only at home but also in their vehicles, transcending space,” said Paul Cheun, President, CTO of DX Division.
