Samsung SmartThings Hub new features

Samsung has introduced some useful new features for its SmartThings Hub, which make it easier to manage your smart home and keep everything running smoothly. The fresh update improves connectivity, reliability, and performance to provide a seamless smart home experience.

Back in 2023, Samsung introduced Hub Group and Hub Replace to create more robust mesh networks and upgrade their hub seamlessly. We are in 2024, and Samsung has announced two new features for the SmartThings app, Hub Manager and Hub Backup.

Hub Manager

The new Hub Manager feature helps you easily manage your hubs and Hub Groups. A Hub Group lets you connect multiple hubs to extend the range of your smart home network.

With Hub Manager, you can create, edit, or delete Hub Groups, making it easier to organize your devices and ensure they stay connected across a larger area.

Create SmartThings Hub Group:

You can easily create a SmartThings Hub group, just need to follow a few steps. Open the SmartThings app >> Go to the Favorites page and tap the (⋮) More Options >> Select Manage Hubs >> If no Hub Group exists, you’ll see the option to Create a Hub Group.

If a Hub Group already exists, the new hub will be automatically added as a secondary hub.

Edit SmartThings Hub Groups

To edit a Hub Group, go to Manage Hubs from the Favorites page >> tap Edit a Hub Group. You can now change the primary hub for the group as well as add or remove secondary hubs.

Hub Backup

The Hub Backup feature ensures your smart home keeps working even if your main hub goes offline. If the primary hub stops working, a secondary hub automatically takes over, so your devices and automation continue to run without interruption.

Hub Backup is enabled by default in Auto Hub Backup mode. To disable or enable, go to Manage Hubs and toggle Auto Hub Backup off.

If you prefer, you can also manually switch to a backup hub, giving you more control over the process. To set a Preferred Hub, you just need to go to Manage Hubs >> select Preferred Hub >> Choose the hub you want to be the default primary hub when it comes online.
