The Samsung HASS (Home Appliance Smart System) app is a professional diagnostic tool specifically for Samsung engineers, technicians, and builder distributors. It allows them to troubleshoot and diagnose refrigerators, washers, and other smart appliances without needing to open the unit. How to Download the Samsung HASS App
Initial Setup on Samsung:
- The app will prompt you to enter the IP address or URL of your Home Assistant server. (You must already have Home Assistant running on a Raspberry Pi, NAS, or dedicated server.)
- Log in with your Home Assistant credentials.
- Grant permissions: The app will ask for location, notifications, and sensors (step counter, battery, light sensor). Grant these to unlock advanced automation triggers—perfect for Samsung’s sensors.
Part 4: Downloading Samsung TV Integration (No App Needed)
If you own a Samsung Smart TV (Tizen OS 2.3+ or 3.0+), you can control it directly from Home Assistant without any official “app download.” This is often what users searching for “Samsung HASS app” actually want—a way to turn their TV on/off, change volume, or launch apps via automation.
This app is not typically intended for the general public and often requires a specific Samsung STG/HASS login ID and password to function. Main Features:
Specialized Hardware: The app often requires a HASS Service Module (e.g., model DB81-05903A), which connects your mobile phone to the appliance via USB-C or other specific connectors.
Once opened, the app will search for your Home Assistant server instance. For Galaxy Watch (Wear OS models like Watch 4, 5, 6, 7): Play Store directly on your watch. Search for " Home Assistant " and install it.
Steps to Connect Samsung TV to HASS:
- On your Samsung TV, go to Settings > General > Network > Expert Settings and enable “IP Remote” (also called “Power On with Mobile”).
- In Home Assistant, go to Settings > Devices & Services > + ADD INTEGRATION.
- Search for “Samsung TV” (the built-in integration).
- Enter your TV’s IP address.
- A pop-up will appear on your Samsung TV asking for confirmation. Accept it.
- The integration is now “downloaded” (meaning, configured). You will see media player and remote entities.
