British Gas starts to turn off Hive smart home devices forever

There’s more bad news for owners of security products from Hive, British Gas’s smart home brand. When it scrapped its home security range in 2022 it said that devices would eventually stop working by 2025, but Hive is shutting down some of those products this week and next month too. Hive has announced the shutdown of the Hive Nano 1 Hub, effective from 1 August 2023, and the Hive Camera, also on 1st August. The Hive Leak Sensor will stop working on 1 September 2023. That’s it for this year, but Hive will pull the plug on several other devices in 2025.
