Health and enjoyment start with fresh food. Whether you like to stroll through the weekly market to hunt down crisp vegetables or prefer to get your vitamins from the supermarket, at the end of the day, a refrigerator and freezer set to the right temperature are vital when it comes to keeping your food fresh for as long as possible.

How Home Connect works for refrigerators and freezers

Smart Home Connect refrigerators and freezers from Bosch, Siemens, Gaggenau, and NEFF help you to enjoy tasty and nutritious food. When networked with the Home Connect app, they become both an expert on freshness and a useful shopping assistant.

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 levels can be set individually using the app – anywhere and at any time.

A quick glance at the Home Connect app is enough for you to see which foods are still available in your intelligent refrigerator and which you need to buy in.

Your food stocks in your smart refrigerator at a glance

With the Home Connect app, you know what food you already have at home. Simply take a look at the app to see whether you need to buy in more food or whether your refrigerator is already well stocked.

Two cameras integrated into the refrigerator take a photo each time the refrigerator door is closed. This image is then encrypted and sent directly to your smartphone via the Home Connect app. This means that you know what's in your refrigerator at all times.

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.
