FAQ: SmartThings Mobile App Migration

Interestingly, it looks like the old routines are technically still available after the migration and remain ‘linked’ to the equivalent Scenes that are created. That being said, the interface for managing routines disappears as part of the migration.

We’ve included links to a few workarounds for Scenes and STHM in the meantime:

PS. We plan on moving to the new SmartThings REST API which has support for Scenes, but we’re still waiting on one critical feature in the API to be released by SmartThings.
