Use Routines in SmartThings

It's the alarm clock of the future: the lights go on, the curtains go up, and the coffee is ready. It might sound like science fiction, but with SmartThings it can be what morning is like in your house every day. With the SmartThings App you can make devices perform certain actions whenever predetermined conditions are met. For example, the TV can turn on at 6 p.m. every evening for when you arrive home from work. Or you can make the lights turn on when a motion sensor detects movement. Follow this guide to learn how to set up Routines in the SmartThings App to make your life easier.

Want the TV to turn on as soon as you walk in the door after a long day? You can make your devices do all kinds of things when you use the Routine feature. First, ensure that your Samsung device is connected to the SmartThings app.
