During the pandemic, homes have become increasingly multi-functional, doubling as gyms, offices and classrooms. Life as we know it has changed and household chores like laundry can seem time-consuming. This means that an increasing number of consumers are investing in appliances that maximize and personalize home spaces for enhanced functionality.  

Samsung’s AI Ecobubble™ washing machines join the club of connected devices and with the help of the SmartThings app, you can control your washing machine from anywhere at any time. This makes laundry a hassle-free job.

Check out these six tasks you can accomplish through the innovative combination of AI Ecobubble™ and the SmartThings app:

1. When Ecobubble™ technology is applied, the detergent is better dissolved into the water and faster penetration into clothes is achieved, so less hot water is needed to aid the cleaning process. The Super Eco Wash programme washes at just 15°C, with the results of a 40°C wash, using just 30% of the energy as a result. 

2. Samsung’s Eco Bubble Technology delivers advanced fabric care as well as perfect cleanliness by minimising damages. With less mechanical actions and bubble cushion, your clothes are free from getting damages. The softer and smoother bubble action protects the delicate clothes such as outdoor wear and water repellent fabrics.

3. Forget lingering near your washing machine to listen for signals anymore. With the SmartThings app, your smartphone, Samsung Smart TV, or Family Hub refrigerator can alert you when the wash cycle is done, if the Smart Control status changes, or if any errors occur. You can also disable the notification from the settings under the menu section of the app.

With the SmartThings app, you can control your washing machine by selecting the cycle you want to run. You can also select additional options like temperature or spin speed from the app.

4. With so many cycles and options, choosing the right washing cycle for your clothes can sometimes be tricky. But with the Laundry Recipe feature in the SmartThings app, figuring out the right cycle for your laundry becomes easy. Once you select the types, the colour and the soil level of the laundry you are washing, the Laundry Recipe feature will suggest tips, cycles, temperature, etc. for the optimum cleaning of your laundry.

5. It is a busy day at work, and you don’t know when you’ll be returning home. But with the help of the Laundry Planner feature in the SmartThings app, you can schedule the end time of your laundry. As long as you shut the door, add detergent and hit Smart Control before you leave, you can use Laundry Planner to schedule your wash cycles from anywhere and at any time with the help of the SmartThings app.

6. With the SmartThings app, you can check the status of the wash cycle in progress from anywhere. You’ll be able to see what type of cycle is running, any icons that are lit, and when it’s expected to complete, just as if you were standing right in front of your washing machine.
