Samsung has introduced some useful new features for its SmartThings Hub, which make it easier to manage your smart home and keep everything running smoothly. The fresh update improves connectivity, reliability, and performance to provide a seamless smart home experience.
Back in 2023, Samsung introduced Hub Group and Hub Replace to create more robust mesh networks and upgrade their hub seamlessly. We are in 2024, and Samsung has announced two new features for the SmartThings app, Hub Manager and Hub Backup.
Hub Manager
The new Hub Manager feature helps you easily manage your hubs and Hub Groups. A Hub Group lets you connect multiple hubs to extend the range of your smart home network.
With Hub Manager, you can create, edit, or delete Hub Groups, making it easier to organize your devices and ensure they stay connected across a larger area.
Create SmartThings Hub Group:
You can easily create a SmartThings Hub group, just need to follow a few steps. Open the SmartThings app >> Go to the Favorites page and tap the (⋮) More Options >> Select Manage Hubs >> If no Hub Group exists, you’ll see the option to Create a Hub Group.
If a Hub Group already exists, the new hub will be automatically added as a secondary hub.
Edit SmartThings Hub Groups
To edit a Hub Group, go to Manage Hubs from the Favorites page >> tap Edit a Hub Group. You can now change the primary hub for the group as well as add or remove secondary hubs.
Hub Backup
The Hub Backup feature ensures your smart home keeps working even if your main hub goes offline. If the primary hub stops working, a secondary hub automatically takes over, so your devices and automation continue to run without interruption.
Hub Backup is enabled by default in Auto Hub Backup mode. To disable or enable, go to Manage Hubs and toggle Auto Hub Backup off.
If you prefer, you can also manually switch to a backup hub, giving you more control over the process. To set a Preferred Hub, you just need to go to Manage Hubs >> select Preferred Hub >> Choose the hub you want to be the default primary hub when it comes online.
Samsung just dropped a bold new SmartThings update, with he latest version adding a new AI-powered Home Insight feature. Samsung says the platform has upgraded with a new app home page, replacing Favorites.
The new SmartThings app homepage is designed to adapt to users’ lifestyles. The service will offer tailored features, which simplify home management and improve automation such as controlling lights, managing appliances, or creating custom routines.
Samsung SmartThings users can receive real-time summaries of their home’s status through the AI-enabled Home Insight feature. It will also present suggestions for necessary actions, achieved by analyzing various data sources, including:
- User lifestyle patterns
- Device usage history
- Home and device status
- Daily weather
- Indoor temperature
For instance, if a device is left on while no one is home, SmartThings will recommend turning it off to conserve energy. Another notification could include changes in indoor temperature or humidity that deviate from the usual levels, which will prompt suggestions to adjust devices for optimal comfort.
Samsung has also updated the SmartThings to function even better with ecosystem devices. The expanded device card now allows users to access key functions without navigating to the devices’ detail page.
- Available through the Device Control panel on Galaxy devices — as well as from the new Map View and the new SmartThings app on the Tab S10 Plus and Tab S10 Ultra.
Home Insight Widget
Samsung brought a Home Insight Widget to Galaxy Tab S10+/Ultra. It offers immediate access to SmartThings, transforming the tablet into a personalized home dashboard.
The major update to the SmartThings UX on Windows brings a panel-style interface. Key features include support for camera streaming and phone-finding functionality.
Additionally, users can instantly control important functions such as temperature while receiving doorbell notifications with a live streaming view that allows them to see who’s at the door.
