Does not work with outlets and accessories

Do not intend to use this device for advanced purposes. I've tried keeping the temp for my plants at 78 during the day and 73 at night, but SmartThings never worked properly on this schedule and wouldn't turn off/on that outlet. Samsung support is terrible. They ask me to send them examples of what triggers didn't work and what they should have done. I send them information and they only reply after another 7 days telling me they don't have 7 day logs so they need examples. That went for weeks.

Pros
  • Tools and Housewares
Cons
  • Disappear

Doesn't work properly with systems other than SmartThings

Samsung SmartThings scammed me and asked me to upgrade my account for a new app and system. This removed all devices from my account and I was unable to get any of my devices back. That giant middle finger from Samsung SmartThings was the final straw, so I switched to the Hubitat. This transition was a blessing in disguise. Hubitat is light years ahead of SmartThings in every way. I'm frustrated that I've endured the SmartThings headache for so long. But now that I'm on Hubitat, that…

Pros
  • Sockets & Accessories
Cons
  • Not sure

Don't waste money. crap, it doesn't work.

Does not work. You need to download the Samsung app on your phone via Samsung Internet. You can't even set up an account in another browser with it. Go to the App Store, read other people's reviews. More Enlightenment. I bought a non-Samsung Z-Wave thermostat, a Samsung-branded smart plug, and a controller. Problems: There is new software that is said to be required for this to work. (There was also an older version that doesn't work with this hub) The software requires ridiculous permissions…

Pros
  • Switch sockets
Cons
  • You could choose a newer model
