SmartThings Android app 1.8.29.24 (March 2025)

On my Stations, I get detailed information about the hub including Thread info such as the network key.


Yes, that info is available for V2 and V3 hubs too.

I find it strange to see what information they choose to display in the app. Surely the SmartThings device ID merits inclusion given it is the unique identifier for a device object? Yet no.

I finally got around to investigating this further. There is a static broadcasting section in the presentation that includes:

                        "observableDeviceEvents": [
                            {
                                "capability": "audioNotification",
                                "component": "main",
                                "attribute": "*",
                                "category": "NetworkAudio"
                            }
                        ],

Although my IKEA/Sonos speaker has audioNotification it has the category Speaker, not NetworkAudio. Indeed no stock speakers with Edge drivers use NetworkAudio.

I believe Samsung soundbars use NetworkAudio. I doubt anyone will be surprised by that.

What API call did you use?

Well I don’t like referencing the Client API in the forum, but you can see the current status of the ‘static’ summary tiles (the ones that are there all the time, or would be if you enabled them) using https://client.smartthings.com/v4/summary?locationId={{locationId}} and the configuration file using https://client.smartthings.com/v4/summary/presentation (actually you can replace ‘presentation’ with just about anything and it will still work). The /v4 (or the accept header equivalent) is important to get the latest current version for this endpoint.

It appears you can now integrate Samsung health to smartthings. I can’t seem to find how to trigger routines based on sleep, as they show. Anyone know how to get this working?

It requires One UI 7 or higher which I just got today. The ‘Connect to Heath app’ option is in SmartThings Settings.


Ok. I have oneui 6.1 right now. Thanks.

I just updated to 7.0 and I see health information on the main page now, but still no routines. Everything is selected in the smartthings settings.

Apparently, enabling the sleep ‘report’ feature is how it’s done, but so far all I see is that it doesn’t appear to be smart at all by actually using the Galaxy Watch as a sleep/wake trigger for routines. It seems that it just lets me generate an automated routine using the Samsung Health apps time that I went to bed last night as the trigger which is dumb since the actual time I go to bed is different every night.

I’ll just stick to using Samsung Modes and Routines to trigger a SmartThings virtual switch On/Off when my phone is wireless charging between a certain timeframe while it’s connected to my home’s wireless network. And using an Alexa GoodNight voice command routine to trigger another SmartThings virtual switch On so that when both conditions are triggered, my SmartThings sleeping routines run.

I see exactly what you see. However, multiple articles show screenshots where the routine trigger says “sleep”, not a time. For instance.

It’s the same screenshot in all publications. It was provided by SmartThings’ PR team.

Is anyone actually seeing it live on their app?

NOW I’M SEEING IT! It must of needed an actual sleep cycle to make it available this morning.

And now when I select ‘Control Devices for Sleep’, it’s using the Sleep trigger instead of Time. I just wish they add the Modes and Routines app Modes to SmartThings as triggers too in the future.

A Samsung Galaxy device should be presented in the SmartThings app like the SmartTags, for example.

I’m seeing it now too. Seems like it takes 2 sleep events to show up.

I am now seeing the Broadcast tile in Home Insights. Previously my IKEA/Sonos speaker didn’t trigger the tile because only devices in the NetworkAudio category were supported.

I haven’t yet looked to see what has changed behind the scenes. As would be expected, the Speaker category has been added to the eligibility criteria for Broadcast.
