To mark the 10th anniversary of Home Connect, BSH presents new functions and appliances at IFA Berlin 2024 that promote sustainability and comfortable use.  The Smart Start function automates the operation of home appliances based on the highest proportion of renewable energy in the power grid. For consumers who use dynamic electricity tariffs, Smart Start can also determine the program start of appliances based on current electricity prices.  The Care Dashboard allows you to monitor the status of your appliances, identify maintenance requirements at an early stage and fix problems directly in the Home Connect app.  The XXL built-in fridge-freezers from #Bosch and #Siemens are the world’s first Matter-enabled home appliances to set new standards in cross-brand #connectivity at home. With its integration into the Matter standard, BSH is actively positioning itself for the smart home of the future.
