Introduction to Konnected Cloud
Konnected Cloud is our free, optional cloud service that extends the power of your Konnected devices by connecting them to cloud-based smart home platforms like SmartThings and Amazon Alexa. Built on Amazon Web Services (AWS) and leveraging AWS IoT, Konnected Cloud provides a secure, real-time bridge between your Konnected hardware and the cloud platforms you already use.
100% Optional Cloud Integrations
We believe in giving you choice. All Konnected devices work fully without Konnected Cloud, giving you complete local control if that’s what you prefer. Your devices do not connect to Konnected Cloud until you explicitly opt in by enabling Konnected Cloud using the Konnected App.
-
Local-only option: Keep your smart home 100% independent of cloud services.
-
Cloud-enabled option: Seamlessly integrate with Alexa and SmartThings.
Device Customization & Firmware Updates
In addition to cloud connectivity, Konnected Cloud and the Konnected App now powers our Device Customization Service. This service makes it easy to:
-
Customize firmware and device settings to your preferences.
-
Push firmware updates to your devices securely over the network.
-
Access new and advanced features of your Konnected device.
Secure by Design
Security is at the heart of Konnected Cloud. When you choose to use it, your devices connect securely using industry-standard best practices based on Amazon Web Services security guidelines and policies.
-
Encrypted communications between devices and cloud.

Account-bound authentication, so only you can manage your devices.
