SmartThings app comes to Windows 10

Samsung's SmartThings app isn't just limited to the new Galaxy Book laptops. The platform is accessible for Windows 10 machines through the Microsoft Store. The only caveat is it's limited to up to 10 Windows 10 machines sharing the same Microsoft account. That's a policy Microsoft employs for virtually every other app, so it's not surprising. If you're heavily in Samsung's ecosystem, this app will help you keep track of all of your smart devices in a centralized UI. You can remotely control your gadgets and appliances and find those that support SmartThings Find.
