Deako Integration through SmartThings

How does Brilliant integrate with Deako?

All Smart Deako devices are supported on Brilliant via SmartThings. 

It will require: 

  • Smart Deako switches, dimmers, or plugs.
  • Your Deako Devices must be controllable by the Deako Mobile app. 
  • Your SmartThings Mobile App must be able to discover and control them. 

Set this up using your SmartThings App and your Brilliant Control:

Make sure your Deako devices work on the SmartThings Mobile App:

  1. Install your Deako devices and set them up on the Deako Mobile App. 
  2. On your Deako Mobile App: Verify that you can control your Deako devices.
  3. Open your SmartThings Mobile App.
  4. On your SmartThings Mobile App: Create / Log into your Samsung account
  5. On your SmartThings Mobile App: Add your Deako Devices to your Samsung SmartThings App. For more info describing this process, please visit this article.
