IKEA Smart Home Policy
Product support policy for smart products from IKEA
At IKEA, we want our smart products to be long-lasting. That’s why long-term use guides us when we design, develop and improve our products and software.
You can keep using your smart home products from IKEA, for as long as they last.
Use cases:
- You can use the IKEA smart products for their basic functions (e.g., turn on and off a light bulb) with or without the use of remotes or connection to your DIRIGERA hub or TRÅDFRI gateway.
- You can use the IKEA smart products with your DIRIGERA hub or TRÅDFRI gateway connected with the applicable IKEA Home smart app (IKEA Home smart for DIRIGERA hub and IKEA Home smart 1 for TRÅDFRI gateway).
When your DIRIGERA hub or TRÅDFRI gateway is connected to the internet, the software of these smart products will be updated with new features. However, there is a practical limit to the capabilities of the electronics of the products, and we want our products to function at their best. For that reason, we work with the following policy when it comes to providing digital updates and patches.
