Where does this leave community users who have created or maintain custom DTHs for devices that don’t have official support from Samsung?
As the last user remaining that is maintaining a collection of custom DTHs for Xiaomi / Aqara ZigBee-based devices, I want to know what my options are in terms of bringing full compatibility with the new SmartThings mobile app.
My problem is it appears I am essentially barred access to the new Samsung developer tools and new documentation because I am a third party. I would have to be a employee or official representative of Xiaomi / Aqara in order to gain access.
So I do not have a clear idea of exactly what changes need to be made to all those DTHs I am maintaining to get them fully working in the new app.
I want to know: what options do I have?
If Samsung is not going to provide full support in the new SmartThings mobile app for community-created DTHs for devices of companies that aren’t interested in approaching Samsung directly, then I don’t want to be the one to make that announcement on the above-linked thread. You or another staff member of SmartThings should do that so users are well-informed to make whatever choices they need to make as a result.
