AVM is significantly expanding the possibilities of the FRITZ!App Smart Home with a new update. Users can now set up, control and automate even more devices centrally via the app – regardless of whether they are at home or away. This turns the app into a fully-fledged control center for the smart home.
- Update for iOS and Android available now
- Control and set up new smart home devices directly in the app
- Flexible timers for sockets, lamps and heaters
- Energy overview through integration of electricity meters and sensors
More control and convenience in the smart home
The latest update considerably simplifies the central management of smart home devices. In addition to radiator controllers, switchable devices such as sockets or lamps can now also be configured directly in the app. For example, FRITZ!Smart Energy 210 smart sockets can be individually programmed to switch appliances such as washing machines or lights on and off.
Another new feature is the option to create regular or one-off timers. These automations can be started both in the home network and remotely – practical for seasonal lighting or the energy-saving operation of household appliances, for example. The energy consumption of individual devices is displayed directly in the FRITZ!App Smart Home and thus supports the optimization of daily power consumption.
Energy consumption at a glance with FRITZ! Smart Energy 250
Another highlight of the update is the improved integration of the FRITZ! Smart Energy 250 electricity sensor. This small adapter is magnetically attached to the infrared interface of a digital electricity meter and transmits current consumption data and feed-ins from a photovoltaic system to the FRITZ!
The app can then be used to track in detail how electricity consumption in the household is distributed throughout the day. This function offers clear advantages, especially with flexible electricity tariffs: Users can place energy-intensive devices in more favorable tariff periods and thus reduce electricity costs in a targeted manner. The app therefore makes an active contribution to greater energy efficiency and sustainability in the smart home.
Intelligent heating control saves energy costs
Control of the FRITZ!Smart Thermo 302 radiator controller has also been expanded. Each room can now be controlled individually via the app – including schedules and temperature profiles. This allows heating times to be precisely adapted to everyday life, which significantly reduces energy consumption during the heating period.
The integration of different device types in one app provides a better overview and greater convenience. Users no longer have to switch between different applications, but can control all smart home components together via the FRITZ! The new update therefore not only provides more functions, but also considerably simplifies the entire smart home management process.
Conclusion
The latest performance update of the FRITZ!App Smart Home turns the app into a versatile control center that combines flexibility, energy efficiency and convenience. The extended device support, new automation functions and detailed energy overview significantly increase the benefits of the FRITZ! ecosystem. The update is now available for free download in the app stores for iOS and Android.
