The SmartThings Hub connects to all your smart devices, the SmartThings cloud, and the SmartThings app. But what if you're not quite sure which version of the SmartThings Hub you own? Let's find out which one you have, and all the great features it can offer your home.

At this time, SmartThings does not support having multiple hubs in one location.

When you're relaxing on the sofa after a hectic day, the last thing you want to do is get back up, even if it means your dinner will burn!

You can even adjust the cooking time and oven temperature remotely, without ever leaving the sofa.
