Whether it’s audio systems or security systems, smart lighting or smart heating, the Aeotec Smart Home Hub helps you build a perfectly personalized smart home.
One app to control it all: SmartThings
No matter which device you connect, no matter which routine you automate, you can control them all through the SmartThings application.
With the help of the SmartThings application, which is available for both Android and Apple’s iOS and iPadOS systems, you can quickly create the necessary routines and automations, connect new devices, control all connected things, and receive notifications when something happens at home.
In the SmartThings application, you can automate your own routines to make everyday life even more comfortable. This means that you can set event sequences – you don’t have to get up from the couch to turn the heating up or down, if the sensor detects a temperature change, it notifies the center and the other devices, which then automatically switch on the temperature you set. heating, meanwhile the brightness of the lamps decreases and creates a pleasant atmosphere.
Z-Wave, ZigBee, Thread and network (http) devices can be directly connected to the Aeotec Smart Home Hub. Thanks to the SmartThings software, it is very easy to connect devices with SmartThings certification, whether it is a sensor, a washing machine, an air conditioner or even a TV. The integrated Z-Wave electronics guarantee that, in theory, any Z-Wave device can be used.

Local pairing and cloud integrations:
A long list of devices from different brands are compatible with the Aeotec SmartThings hub, which you can pair directly with the hub locally. These are, for example, the majority of Zigbee 3.0 devices compatible with the eWeLink / Tuya platform in our catalog, such as the inexpensive Sonoff Zigbee sensors, the Sonoff S26 Zigbee socket, the SmartWise Zigbee smart light bulb and some SmartWise Zigbee light switches.
Other smart devices with WiFi can be integrated into the SmartThings system via the cloud, so all eWeLink devices and Shelly devices will appear in the SmartThings APP – even without a hub – if we connect our eWeLink / Shelly hub to our SmartThings / Samsung account .
SmartThings hub and the SmartThings platform – thanks to its wide compatibility – are one of the systems that many people choose as an integration platform, since for example eWeLink or Shelly WiFi devices can be connected via the factory cloud, while Zigbee, Thread or even Z-Wave devices directly through the Aeotec SmartThings hub, we can order locally in an app, on an interface, and create scenes or other automations.
Based on the results of our quick test, the SmartThings hub is able to create automations between the individual directly connected devices that will work offline, i.e. without an Internet connection, thanks to the offline capabilities of the Aeotec hub.
