Should mention that 99% of people cant get the app to work, because it will not connect properly.

I love the fact you have spoken about Samsung Smart things. However, I cannot find ANYTHING on the net that will explain how to get a modern Samsung Smart Q95 TV universal remote to work with home theatre sound situated in a cupboard or out of sight. Volume cannot be controlled through optical out on the TV, ONLY on the stereo. I want to know if the universal remote that comes with the TV can be programmed to control the volume on the home theater device? Grateful for any help from anyone out there.

Once a smart tag is registered, can another android phone do a find device on it if it's near by? If so, how close you got to be?

Does Samsung SmartThings work with Samsung M series phones ? Like M31, M30s... F41 ? This app is not available in the play Store for these mentioned devices.

You're so good on what you do brother!

[MoonLiteNite]

i dont get the need for the smartthings hub? whats the hub do? you can connect your devices without it...

[abbzb]

tried this app out. thought I'd turned up the heating, dimmed the lights and put some "soft music on low" but when I pulled up with a chick all the lights in the house were flashing, rock music was playing loud, the garage door was wide open and my lawnmower had been stolen. she thought it was hilarious and I got laid so i rate this app 10/10

Probably one of the worst apps I've ever used. Constantly drops connection with Smartthings server so it's basically worthless.

Samsung's greatest crime is killing SmartView. It's the only thing that had one simple task that it did excellently that I didn't know i needed till I discovered it. I have a large film collection on my hard drives that I can load 200 of at a time on SmartView for streaming to my Samsung TV. And voila!! You can leave your computer alone and control the movies just using the Samsung remote control that has its own mouse-like cursor!!

So if I have google assistant connected to smart things, but none of the devices connected to smart things are compatible with Google, am I just screwed?
