What it is

Bosch Smart Home connects compatible home devices through the Smart Home Controller II and Bosch Smart Home app. The controller links Bosch and partner devices and is required for the system; Bosch states that exactly one controller is needed. Users can control devices remotely through the app, voice assistants, automations, scenarios, and preconfigured services. Listed integrations include Matter, Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant, Apple HomeKit, BMW, Philips Hue, Osram LEDVANCE Smart+, and Home Connect. Home Connect supports Bosch, Siemens, and Gaggenau washing machines, dryers, dishwashers, and coffee machines. The controller supports local control, Matter, Zigbee, camera integration, and energy monitoring. Bosch says personal data is stored locally on the controller rather than external servers, while remote-access data is encrypted in transit to a phone or tablet. The app requires Android 8.0 or later or iOS 15.5 or later; beta operating systems are unsupported. A free plan is available, with Home+ priced at €4.99 a month and no free trial.
