Smart things app remove device guide

[Manish3]

Hi, according to a select few members I am very incompetent and to vague with my issues. 

So wondering if someone could with a very specific issue. I cannot remove device. I cleared cache and app data but no luck. 

Any ideas?

The light is paired via Bluetooth. You can remove it by going to your Settings menu, then go to Connections > Bluetooth and tap on the Bluetooth tab itself.

That will take you to a list of all your paired devices. Tap on Living Room Light in that list and you should see "Unpair" in the bottom right corner. Unpair it and it will no longer show up in Smartthings or your Device Control menu.

I'm sure I click on home app, click on settings and delete from the list on there from the different rooms I've added 🤔

Any advanced settings to not show Bluetooth devices here. I really just wanted devices I add myself... Maybe I am too controlling?

Nah, not too controlling. I know what you mean. The "personal devices" page on Smartthings is a little misleadingly named in my opinion.

The real personal page on Smartthings is the Favourites page. There you can add or remove any device onto your Favourites however you choose.

But the personal devices page, as far as I know, is really just a Smartthings extension of the Android Device Control nav menu. Which is something only Google can give more custom options on in the future, not Samsung. Hopefully they do in the near future, because I'd like to keep the Device Control menu clean, myself. I don't need every bluetooth speaker I've paired with my Samsungs listed when I can't even control them from Smartthings anyway.

Thanks Sean, really helpful.
