Did I switch off the oven? Instead of heading back home to check, simply take a look at the app. You will see the status of your appliances straight away with immediate access to important functionalities, whether at home or on the go.


Be aware of all that’s important

Oh, the fridge door has been left open? When do I need to descale the coffee machine? Important notifications and reminders regarding maintenance and care will be sent to you automatically. And even if things don’t go to plan: Using remote diagnostics our customer service will help you out with resolving the issue. You can also simply check the manual which is conveniently stored in the app.


Voice-control your appliances via Amazon Alexa or Google Home

Whether it’s making coffee, preheating the oven, or starting the washing machine: Voice your command and Google Assistant or Amazon Alexa will take care of the rest. What’s more, you can use predefined or individual routines for recurring tasks, like having your coffee made at the same time each working day.

 
Finding the best programme and other little helpers

Dishwasher, dryer, or oven – depending on the appliance and task at hand, the app will recommend the right programme with the ideal settings, whether it’s a pile of dirty dishes, a load of washing, or the cheesecake recipe for your next family reunion. And with Coffee Playlist you can even fulfil your guests’ coffee needs to match that cheesecake.

Never run out on dishwasher tabs, hood filters, or other consumables

Home Connect gives you access to features that track your supply so you will never have to think about it again. Even better, connect to Amazon Alexa and its smart reordering service for your dishwasher tabs so they are reordered on demand before you run out.

Ratings and reviews

I initially gave this app a poor review but have now revised it more favourably, due to the issues I previously experienced were probably related to the mesh WiFi system in use at the time. This app was probably the first in several random issues experienced with the app and a replacement system resolved the issue of the appliance dropping off the network. It's not an app I use frequently, other than the notification to use a service wash and when the program has finished.

Could be better. Fast forwarding past the difficulty to setup the wifi connection I think the app lacks some of the "smart" features. It cannot for instance tell you the amount of consumed water or electricity. It could be easily implemented at least based on the estimated values which are shown on the washing machine manual. Just use the values from there. So no smart reporting how much electricity used per day / month etc. Just lazy IMO. Don't expect it to use sensors to read actual values..

Had enough of the forced "Singlekey ID" and the "Home Connect" app and decided to use our machine standalone, rather than connected. So I've tried to delete the account. It's impossible. When clicking on "Delete Account" the app instead just endlessly loops through the login process. There is no actual way to delete it. I expected better of Bosch, I really did. I certainly didn't expect them to force their customers through 3rd-party companies. Never purchasing their products again.
