Welcome to your smart home!

These days we have been making huge leaps towards making homes smarter, and giving you the power to monitor, control, secure and customize your living space with just the touch of your smartphone. Soon, it will be hard to imagine life any other way.

Of course, to make smart homes possible, it’ll take some advanced technology. You need intelligent tools to tap into the devices and appliances that make your home a smart one.

Samsung SmartThings unlocks the power of anywhere-anytime access to your home; they join easy-to-use options all in the palm of your hand!

Here are four key ways you can make your home a smarter and happier place to live.

- Monitor your home from anywhere. If you work at the office all day, you’ll notice that you only spend a short amount of time in your home. Then when you get home, you either go out to eat or visit some friends. With our smart phones, we have the power to monitor the safety and security back at home. If you choose Samsung SmartThings, there’ll be a wide variety of components to choose, from motion sensors, moisture detectors and power outlets to presence sensors that your family members can carry around with them. For example, if your front window opens without warning, you’ll be notified immediately!

- Control lights, appliances and other elements of your home. Having confidence that your home is safe and secure isn’t just about having the right information, it’s about being able to control in-house settings from just about anywhere. SmartThings allows you to interact directly with your devices and appliances from your mobile device. So, you have the option to control lighting, temperature settings, locks and everything down to individual connected appliances.

- Secure your home against damage and danger. Whether you are in a business meeting or having a picnic at the park, put your home in the palm of your hand. Dynamic automation at your fingertips lets you set a schedule of routines for lights, thermostats, video systems and even the stereo in the lounge. The bottom line is, you can allow your home to look and sound busy even when you are away.

- Connect with hundreds of compatible devices and customize your home. Part of what makes your home your own is all your personal stuff that you love. With that in mind, SmartThings works with more than 150 brands of smart, connected devices.

Monitor, control, secure and add what you like to your home to make it a state-of-the-art smart home! Take a look at SmartThings to find out more.
