I must be going mad, im sure there was somewhere in the new app to pin individual devices to the phone Home screen but either i cant find it or it was never there and im getting old… any thoughts

I suppose you mean in the dashboard, the 3 horizontal dots on the top right, manage dashboard, choose what device you want there.

You can create a widget on your phone’s home screen (usually by hard pressing the screen for the widget option). However, only routines, not devices, can be made into widgets, as far as I know.
That’s for the classic app. I don’t think the new app has widgets yet.

The more i think about it the more sure i am that the option was in the app … i may have even mentioned it somewhere in one of my ramblings.
The old app as said does have widgets for scenes but the connect app did have the option to pin devices to the phone desktop/home page

Smartthings Version 1.7.02-45 released 13/03/18 Android S7 phone
Incase anyone who does not have the app is interested will list what i can see as changes to the previous version
Dashboard
Access to third party accounts now visible in settings
Notifications now show activity from the ST hub of any connected device not just St branded devices
If an Xbox one is connected and added as a device, the Ui for that device will allow for fast display of images stored on the phone, the images appear as thumbnails below the XBox Ui controls, This would be the same for a connected Tv but as mentioned below the Tv Ui seems to have stepped backwards for now
Devices
Now shows mode drop down box
Show location summary on dashboard option ( does not appear to work for me )
Media devices : Tv, Sonos…
My last post says i found it was possible… sadly i didnt document how DOH !!!
