Do you love it, too, when your towels come out of the dryer all soft and fluffy? A washing machine and a dryer are ideal partners – one ensures cleanliness and freshness, the other guarantees the right finish: Sleek, cared-for fabrics.
How a smart dryer with Home Connect works
Smart dryers with the Home Connect function help you to select the right programme for your washing and ensure a perfect result. You simply send the dryer information on the properties of your textiles and your drying requirements using the Home Connect app. Sensors constantly measure the temperature and moisture of the textiles during the drying process. The dryer then dries your washing really gently and precisely to the required degree of dryness. This means that the appliance uses less energy and your washing comes out of the dryer without creases.
In addition, you can use the app on your smartphone or tablet to flexibly define when your Home Connect dryer from Bosch or another home appliance brand starts its work. The smart dryer adapts to your daily schedule, not the other way round.

Frequently asked questions
All smart dryers with the Home Connect function are designed to save energy and dry your clothes gently. Technologies such as Smart Dry automatically choose the right drying programme. The autoDry function dries your washing as required, gently and precisely.
You don't have to worry about the fluff filter or about cleaning, either. The AutoClean technology means that regular fluff removal is no longer necessary. The SelfCleaning Condenser™ automatically cleans itself.
Once your dryer is connected to the Home Connect app, you can start your smart dryer, monitor its drying programme, and receive notifications to tell you it's finished – at any time and even when you are on the go.
Retrofitting is possible but not recommended. A solution installed later on is relatively expensive and often does not include the same features as a solution that is integrated from the start. The Home Connect appliances are tailored to each other and networked via the app. You must therefore check carefully before exchanging or adding electronics.
Home Connect works only with a smart dryer designed for this functionality from Bosch, Siemens, Gaggenau, or NEFF. In the Smart Home Appliances area, you can find out which home appliance types work with Home Connect. The Home Connect app can be used on smartphones and tablets and requires a WiFi connection.
