Quite a good app

I'm relatively new to the smartthings platform and found this app to be clean and easy to use when I was first setting everything up.

With that said however, it only took about a day before I realised I needed to use webcore and custom device handlers to achieve much of what I wanted to achieve with a home automation platform. After having a go setting everything up using webcore I then realised that this is where this app falls apart as many devices with supposedly fully functional device handlers simply don't work here. Enter the classic app, and it's just a significantly more mature app that has far broader and deeper support for many more devices and smart apps. Combined with webcore the classic app has helped me implement an outstanding solution.

Anyhow I'm continuing to use this app as it's clearly the future and a sustainable model given that the web UI gives me the ability to configure much of my ST network now that I've set up using classic. I I just pray Samsung don't drop the power of the classic app in favour of a basic solution that works for more people but only half as well for half the available devices.

Widget scene not working any longer

I was able to activate the scenes from the widget on the previous version. Now, instead of activating or deactivating the scene, it sends me to the app instead , then I have to click on scenes, then activate or deactivate the scene. It is SO annoying and time consuming. I hope it will be fixed very quickly.

Other than this the app used to be pretty reliable and I'm sure (or hopeful) than the current issue will be fixed promptly.

App is junk

I have the latest iPhone, and one of the newest Samsung TV's. I'm pretty advanced in my use of technology. Other apps and devices work perfectly and our home network is superb.
I'd hoped to use the Samsung app as a back up to control the TV because the remote disappears occasionally in out busy house.
The samsung app just doesn't work. I managed to set up the TV initially but when I open the app it never connects to the tv. I tried to remove the TV and set it up again from scratch, but was instructed that to remove the TV you have to reset the TV to factory defaults, which is unacceptable because we have Disney, Foxtel, Prime, Binge, Telstra TV and more set up and the setting for each would all be lost.
Really disappointed that I assumed that the app for a Samsung Smart TV would work really well, but it doesn't work at all.
We are fortunate that we still use Telstra TV. For all their faults, the Telstra TV is in a different league to Samsung. We have three of them and the Telstra app works every time without fail. Compare that to the Samsung app which never works.
