Add and manage devices and appliances in SmartThings

Navigate to and open the SmartThings app on your phone.

Note: A Samsung Account is required. Samsung devices that already have a Samsung Account stored on them will use that account automatically. Otherwise, you can log into or create a Samsung Account by following the on-screen instructions in the app. 

Tap the Devices tab, and then tap Add (the plus sign).

If the device uses Bluetooth, tap Scan nearby at the bottom of the screen. Or, tap Scan QR code to scan a device's QR code.

If your device isn't detected, you can add it manually. If it's a Samsung product, tap Add next to Samsung devices to select the type of device. If not, tap Add next to Partner devices (which includes SmartThings, ADT, and so on). You can also search for your device.

From there, follow the instructions to connect your device to SmartThings.
