Your health starts with fresh food. A quality refrigerator and freezer set to the right temperatures and settings are vital when it comes to keeping your food fresh for as long as possible.
How Home Connect works for refrigerators and freezers
Home Connect refrigerators and freezers from Bosch, Thermador and Gaggenau help you to ensure that you preserve your tasty and nutritious food with precise control.
The Home Connect app provides you with tips on how to store your food correctly in your refrigerator and freezer and how to set your appliances to the perfect temperature. It's really practical: The refrigeration and freezing temperatures and settings can be set individually using the app – anywhere and at any time.
Experience smart appliances without owning them
Have you ever thought about what makes Home Connect so smart? Well, there’s a brilliant way to find it out for yourself. The Demo Appliance feature on the Home Connect app allows you to discover all the smart appliance functions without you needing to own one. Simply download the app and add a demo appliance from one of the categories – let’s say a dishwasher – and experience the Home Connect functions first-hand.
Remote control for your smart refrigerator
The Home Connect app helps you to save energy. You can use the remote control to set the temperature. If you go away for a few days, you can place your appliance into holiday mode. This works wherever you are, as long as you have WiFi. You can also use ECO mode to ensure sufficient refrigeration along with top energy efficiency.
If your refrigerator is not closed properly, you'll immediately get a message on your smartphone.
Flash-freezing for a vitamin boost
It's great that some freezers have a Super Freeze setting. This allows you to quickly chill your food or drinks in order to retain all of their vitamins and nutrients. Super Freeze can be activated using the Home Connect app.
With Super Freeze, you balance out the temperature fluctuations that occur when you place food or drinks at room temperature into the freezer.
Storing food correctly in your smart refrigerator
Whether it's vegetables, meat, or dairy – each type of food has its ideal conditions for storage in a refrigerator. The Home Connect app retains a clear overview of the correct way to store various foods and adjusts the temperature in your refrigerator – even remotely.
In the Home Connect app, you'll repeatedly find cool new tips and solutions for shopping, foods, and your smart refrigerator.
Home Connect supports these world class appliance brands.

What can a smart refrigerator do?
Smart refrigerators with the Home Connect function help you to save energy. Their modern sensor technology keeps an eye on the technical processes. For example, the temperature of your smart refrigerator or freezer can be selected individually in order to reduce electricity consumption. Integrated cameras work via the Home Connect app to tell you when food in your refrigerator is running low. The app also tells you if your refrigerator or freezer door hasn't been closed properly.
Can I retrofit my own refrigeration appliances?
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.
What technology is necessary to use the Home Connect app?
Home Connect only works with smart refrigeration appliances from Bosch, Siemens, Gaggenau, and NEFF that are designed for this functionality. 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. You can control your home appliances using multiple smart devices.
