Smartblinds and Samsung SmartThings
Smartblinds' smart window coverings are 'smart' to operate. Via your smartphone, you control your Smartblinds with a finger swipe. You can expand the capabilities of your Smartblinds by connecting your Smartblinds to a smart home platform, such as Samsung SmartThings. Linking Smartblinds and Samsung is instant, as Smartblinds' Eve Motionblinds Matter motors are equipped with the new Matter protocol.

Samsung Smart hubs
Like many other smart home platforms, Samsung has its own smart home devices. In the SmartThings app, you have an overview of all these devices like your washing machine, fridge, robot hoover and much more. To control your Smartblinds, you need a smart hub that can function as a Thread border router. This smart hub creates a Thread network, on which your Smartblinds can function without connection to Wi-Fi. SmartThings has 2 smart hubs that can function as Thread border routers:

  • The SmartThings Hub v3

  • The Smartthings Station

After connecting your Smartblinds to SmartThings, you can add your Samsung blinds to your smart home scenes. This makes your smart blinds work together with other smart devices in your home. For example, set your Smartblinds to close automatically at sunset, and dim your lights! This way you can enjoy an evening of privacy and your eyes already get used to the dark! Are you already more advanced in your smart home? Then you can, for example, add Google's voice assistant or Amazon Alexa to your SmartThings, making voice commands possible too!
