The disclosure is related to identifying an Internet of Things (IoT) device with an image of the IoT device. A user device captures the image of the IoT device, wherein the image of the IoT device includes at least a portion of an environment around the IoT device, and transmits the image from the user device to the IoT device, wherein the IoT device associates the image with information identifying the IoT device. The IoT device receives the image of the IoT device from the user device, stores the image of the IoT device, and associates the image of the IoT device with information identifying the IoT device.
