AO Smith Smart for iPhone

Manage AO Smith Water Heaters from Your iPhone

AO Smith Smart is an iPhone app (created by John Fernandes) that gives you remote control over your AO Smith water heater. From your phone you can turn heating on or off, schedule hot water for specific times, and choose settings that match your household needs. The app is available at no cost on the App Store.

Important Capabilities

• Access customer support and troubleshooting resources directly from the app with a single tap.
• Configure timers and automated schedules so hot water is ready when you need it.
• View detailed energy reports covering daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly usage to help manage costs.
• Receive push notifications when the water reaches the desired temperature.
• Select from several heating modes and temperature presets to suit different uses.
• Operate the heater remotely from anywhere with an internet connection.

Energy Monitoring and Insights

Track how much electricity your water heater uses over different timeframes. The app provides historical summaries and current-usage information so you can spot trends and adjust settings to reduce waste or lower bills. Use the data to compare consumption across weeks or months and to test the impact of different schedules or modes.

Alerts and Customer Help

Get notified as soon as the tank hits the set temperature so you know when hot water is available. If something goes wrong or you have questions, the app’s built-in support shortcut connects you to customer care for assistance, warranty questions, or setup help.
