About this app

Shelly Smart Control is the successor of Shelly Cloud. We've added a number of new features to help you monitor and control your devices, look at your current consumption and even add cost periods, so you can see your monthly electricity bill prognosis.

The new features include but are not limited to:
- Dashboards - create and organise your own dashboards with custom cards for your favourite devices, scenes or groups;
- New space for real-time measuring of energy consumption;
- Detailed statistics - for your house, a room, or each device;
- Electricity tariff;
- Information screens.

This app offers the possibility to remotely control your Shelly devices. It is the neccessary hub to initially install your Shelly devices.

We are constantly working on providing support for new devices. The updates are provided to you via a seamless update technology that works all on its own - you will only need to update the application manually for major updates.

The Shelly Home Automation portfolio includes a variety of relay switches, sensors, plugs, bulbs, and other controllers, all connected and controlled through your Wi-Fi network. The new Shelly Plus and Shelly Pro lines of products additionally support Bluetooth connectivity for faster and more stable device communication, and the new Shelly Pro line offers LAN and Wi-Fi usage simultaneously. The entire Shelly portfolio is available at https://shelly.cloud/

With Shelly you can control your lights, garage doors, curtains, window blinds, or other appliances, as well as trigger actions based on certain conditions.

All Shelly devices provide:
- Embedded Web server
- Wi-Fi control and connectivity
- APIs for observation and control

A user account is required to access, include, and control Shelly devices through the application or via the upcoming Wear OS applet.

Shelly devices are compatible with other widely used both local- and cloud-based home automation platforms like Google Home and Alexa.

Please note that on Android 9 and earlier an update to "Chrome" and "Android System WebView" might be necessary, as this app depends heavily on libraries provided by these two and you may encounter a black screen if they are not updated.

Ratings and reviews

I kept having an issue where my dimmer switch couldn't connect. Then I reread the knowledge base article for it and saw it only has 2.4GHz Wi-Fi support. Once I used the correct band, everything has worked as intended. I've customized the app to do exactly what I need when I open it.

I like this app. I'll agree that setting up devices, then groups/rooms, then scenes is a little cumbersome. Once it's set up it's easy to use, fast, and reliable. I have 5 Shelly devices in use. What I find easiest is perform basic setup using the local web interface then use the app to enable cloud, add to rooms, etc. I don't like the idea that there is a paid upgrade, but they aren't pushy about it, yet. Just hope it doesn't become a pay-to-use service.

Wow, Ithis app is bad. To add a Shelly RGBW2 , I first have to connect my phone to the shelly wifi, then before going to the next step, I have to connect my phone back to a wifi with internet or else the app hangs. If while connected to the shelly wifi you try to add a new room when adding the device, the app doesn't add the room nor does it give you any error message. If you put the app in background and return to it, it goes to the main menu instead of where you were.
