OpenHAB - SmartHome

Have you purchased a Samsung smart refrigerator and noticed that the SmartThings app only displays the set temperature and not the current one?

In this video we see how you can overcome this limitation... and much more...

Even though the official app doesn't display it directly on your phone, the SmartThings cloud computes the actual temperature.

Using the official SmartThings APIs, I'll show you how I'm planning to develop a custom Python bridge to send this data via MQTT directly to our beloved openHAB (or possibly other systems that understand the MQTT protocol).

This approach is similar to the one we've already seen for the SwitchBot integration: Watch the SwitchBot video here.
