Where Does Bosch Smart Home Store System Config?
Bosch Smart Home keeps system config on the local Controller with the phone holding login and cache in a private sandbox.
Last updated
Bosch Smart Home anchors on the Controller. Rooms, devices, automations, and alarm states live there. The app sandbox holds login session and cached home state. Remote access relays through Bosch services without moving the config.
Phone swaps are login affairs on the home network. Partner integrations re-link through their own apps. Guard the Controller and its backups; the phone is replaceable.

Frequently asked questions
How do I move Bosch Smart Home to a new phone?
Rooms, automations, and device links live on the Controller, not the phone. Log in on the new phone on the same network and the home reappears. A reset Controller means rebuilding by hand.
Is Bosch Smart Home data in the cloud?
The Controller stays local by design, with remote access relayed when away. Personal details remain on-site rather than in a vendor cloud. That locality is the privacy pitch; back up accordingly.
