SmartThings app closes on Galaxy phone

The SmartThings app requires a date of birth to be registered to your Samsung account. You will not be able to use the app if you are under the age of 14, or if there is no date of birth information registered to your Samsung account. To resolve this, simply add your birthdate to your Samsung account.
