It was only yesterday that LG announced its new smart appliances that can be controlled by SMS. Now, less than a day later, its South Korean rival Samsung has announced plans to let developers build Smart TV apps that can control home appliances.
LG just revealed plans to let you control household appliances via chat app Line, and now it’s Samsung’s turn. The Korean firm is giving developers the keys to build apps that control products in the home from a TV, through a new version of its Smart TV software development kit (SDK).
