When did you get your tokens?
Samsung changed their policy a while ago so new tokens are only valid for 24 hours.

Hi, I am experiencing a random switching on my Samsung tv (as I write it it happened twice within one hour) - anybody experienced that and found the root cause? Many thanks in advance for any helpful idea how to prevent it… enclosing the device timeline:

@Adrian_Rockall, We just purchased a house that has 75 Lumary smart lights connected to dumb switches. I have installed a Zooz Zen71 switch (smart bulb mode) with a Homey Pro and everything seems to work with your app (can still use the switch and the lights retain power). My only problem is the 24hr lease on the token. In previous threads you mention that your app can work with oauth2. Do you have any information about oauth2 and how to set it up. I appreciate any insight.

Unfortunately, since SmartThings changed their policy, 24hrs is the limit. I have tried to request the tokens to use OAUTH2, but SmartThings never gets back to me.

I believe Athom had the same problem and not sure if they ever solved it.

Basically, SmartThings want to control everything and don’t want third party solutions involved.

I ended up dumping all my SmartThings lights, etc and only have my washing machine left, and I won’t buy a Samsung again when it dies.
