Did you know you can monitor and control your fridge and freezer right from the palm of your hands using SmartThings? Once you're connected, you can check the current temperature or even take a peek inside while shopping to make sure that you didn't forget any of the necessities.
Before you get started, you will need to install the SmartThings app, connect your smartphone to a WiFi network, and create a Samsung Account, if you have not already.
Once you have everything prepared, follow the guide below to connect the SmartThings app on your device to your compatible* Family Hub™ refrigerator.
NOTE:
- The SmartThings app is available on Android and iOS devices. A Wi-Fi connection and a Samsung account are required. Data fees may apply.
- Before connecting your fridge to Wi-Fi, the router must be set to 2.4ghz. The router must be within 8m of the fridge, and not be blocked by thick walls, doors, etc. If too many devices are connected, disconnect other devices and connect the fridge first.
*SmartThings is compatible with the following Family Hub™ refrigerators:
RF22NPEDBSG/SA, RF22R7551SG/SA, RF23M8580SG/SA, RF28N9780SG/SA, RF56K9540SG/SA, RF56M9540SG/SA, RS64T5F01B4/SA, RF65DG9HC3B1SA, RF71DG9HC3B1SA.

Step 2. Then, select 'Add device'.
Step 3. Under 'Samsung devices', tap 'Add'.
Step 4. Scroll down and tap 'Refrigerator'.
Step 5. If your fridge has a QR Code, use the camera to detect it. Otherwise, tap 'Add without QR code'.
Step 6. Select 'Samsung'.
Step 7. Tap 'Family Hub'.
Step 8. On the Family Hub™ display of your Refrigerator go to 'Settings' > 'Connections'.
Step 9. Select 'Easy Connection'.
Step 10. Then, tap 'Connect'.
Step 11. A code will then appear on your Family Hub™.
Step 12. Enter the code into the SmartThings App on your device, before tapping 'Done'.
Step 13. Once detected, select your Family Hub™.
Step 14. Allow SmartThings to connect to your Family Hub™. If a pop-up appears, tap 'Connect'.
