The frient devices are now Works with SmartThings certified
Are you using Samsung SmartThings to manage your smart home? It has now become even easier to integrate the frient devices with your hub and enjoy all their smart functionalities.
With Works with SmartThings certification, you can connect (almost*) all the frients directly in the SmartThings app – no custom drivers required.
We have been working closely with the SmartThings team to make this happen and are excited to be among the first brands to migrate from Compatible with SmartThings (CST) to Works with SmartThings (WWST).

“We are proud of reaching this milestone and want to thank the SmartThings team for the great cooperation during the certification process. SmartThings is a great partner for frient, and we’re looking forward to expanding our presence both in Europe and North America.”
