    Samsung’s Music Sync is getting a deeper integration with YouTube Music.

    Music Sync in the SmartThings app can now start your YouTube Music playlist automatically when you hit the button to get your Philips Hue smart lights in sync with the tunes.

    Press the Party button to get your Party playlist and party lighting, or opt for Relax, Workout, etc.

    However, you’ll need YouTube Premium, a Galaxy device, and Hue smart lights for all this to work.

    Music Sync is a feature in the SmartThings app that syncs your Hue smart lights to any music app on a Galaxy device.

    This startup is trying to disrupt your fridge.

    Seattle-based Tomorrow is developing a new type of fridge with a “patent-pending cooling architecture” designed to extend the life of fresh produce.

    The company says the cooling adapts based on what’s on your shelves, the fridge will keep track of food using AI-powered cameras, and that it can help you plan meals.

    The Tomorrow fridge isn’t coming until next summer, but you can sign up to be notified today.
