    Oh no…I’m in danger! lol

    /Cries on my S10

    The statement confirms that the latest version of the SmartThings app is the root cause of these bootloops. It further confirms that the update is no longer rolling out to devices, so you need not worry about accepting an update on your device.

    Right… I’ma just go ahead and disable auto-updating, thanks
