Users can create richer multi-device entertainment routines via SmartThings, including the Philips Hue Sync TV App
SmartThings, Samsung's global connected living platform, today announces its expanded partnership with Philips Hue, global leader in smart lighting, aimed at revolutionizing how users interact with their home entertainment systems. This collaboration introduces a series of exclusive updates and greater control of the Philips Hue Sync TV App through SmartThings, designed to elevate home automation and enhance control of light sync.
Enhanced Integration with the SmartThings App
