Presence sensors are very important when it comes to home automation. Your mobile smartphone works perfectly as a presence sensor in Samsung SmartThings because it always had an internet connection, is almost always with you and you don’t have to buy a sensor!

Just follow the simple steps in this video and your phone will be a presence sensor in no time and your automation will definitely improve. I am using the Samsung SmartThings classic app in the video but will make another video using the new SmartThings app once it is feature complete.
