Introduction ​

Homebridge Samsung Tizen is a plugin for Homebridge that controls Samsung TVs running Tizen OS (2017 and later) from the Apple Home app.

The main focus of the plugin is that basic functionality works on your local network, with no internet connection required. SmartThings is optional. It is an add-on that brings extra features, not something the plugin depends on.

The plugin has its own interface in Homebridge UI, which helps you add devices and configure everything. This documentation walks through installation, pairing, and every setting. Start with Getting started.

Upgrading from version 5?

Version 6 is a full rewrite. Your TVs stay in Home, but a few settings changed and SmartThings has to be authorized again. Read Upgrading from version 5 first.

If something does not work, check the common issues page. When you open a GitHub issue, follow how to open a new issue so the report includes the details needed to help.


If the plugin is useful, a GitHub star helps other people find it. Sponsorships and donations are optional and very welcome. They go toward time spent on new features, maintenance, and support, all of it in spare time.
