How to Use the Samsung SmartThings App to Change Frame TV Art
If you own a Samsung Frame TV, you already know it’s more than just a television—it’s a piece of art that blends seamlessly into your home décor. One of the best features is the ability to customize your screen with digital art, screensavers, and even vintage Frame TV art. The easiest way to manage your artwork is through the Samsung SmartThings app, which lets you upload, resize, and switch your art in just a few taps.
In this guide, we’ll walk you step-by-step on how to use the SmartThings app to change Frame TV art, plus share a few pro tips for choosing the best 4K Frame TV art for your home.
Step 1: Download & Connect the SmartThings App
Go to the App Store (iOS) or Google Play Store (Android).
Search for Samsung SmartThings app and download it.
Open the app and sign in with your Samsung account.
Make sure your Samsung Frame TV is powered on and connected to WiFi.
From the app dashboard, tap the “+” icon to add a new device. Select TV → Samsung Frame TV and follow the prompts.
✅ Once connected, you can fully control your Frame TV, including switching channels, adjusting settings, and uploading Frame TV art.
Step 2: Access Art Mode
The Frame TV’s Art Mode is what makes it special. Instead of showing a black screen when the TV is off, you can display digital artwork, screensavers, or personal photos.
Open the SmartThings app.
Select your Frame TV from the device list.
Tap “Art Mode” at the bottom of the screen.
Here you’ll see the option to browse art, purchase new pieces from the Samsung Art Store, or upload your own digital Frame TV art.
Step 3: Upload Your Own Frame TV Art
Want to display your favorite vintage oil painting, coastal landscape, or seasonal holiday art? Here’s how to upload custom artwork:
Open Art Mode in SmartThings.
Tap “My Collection” → Add Your Photos/Art.
Choose the image file from your phone’s gallery.
Crop or resize the image (ideally use 3840 x 2160 pixels, 16:9 ratio, 4K resolution) for the best fit.
Tap Set to Frame TV and watch your art instantly appear.

Step 4: Adjust Mat & Display Settings
The SmartThings app also allows you to customize how your art is displayed:
Mat Options: Add a virtual mat or border around your artwork for a gallery-style look.
Brightness Control: Adjust brightness so your Frame TV art looks natural in any lighting.
Auto Sensor: Let your TV dim or turn off art automatically when no one’s in the room.
These settings help make your Samsung Frame TV art blend seamlessly with your wall décor.
Step 5: Explore the Samsung Art Store
If you don’t have artwork ready, explore the Samsung Art Store inside the SmartThings app. It offers thousands of curated images, but keep in mind most require a subscription.
Many Frame TV owners also prefer an affordable alternative: joining a monthly art membership like the Digital Heritage Club. Each month, members receive new seasonal and vintage Frame TV art in 4K resolution, ready to upload directly through the SmartThings app.
