History
The settlement was first founded in 1861 as the village of Kenneberg ({{langx|uk|Кеннеберг}}). It was renamed to its current name "Smyha" in 1928, and it acquired the status of an urban-type settlement in 1980.
Until 26 January 2024, Smyha was designated urban-type settlement. On this day, a new law entered into force which abolished this status, and Smyha became a rural settlement.{{cite news |title=Что изменится в Украине с 1 января |url=https://glavnoe.in.ua/ru/novosti/chto-yzmenytsya-v-ukrayne-s-1-yanvarya |work=glavnoe.in.ua |lang=ru| date=1 January 2024}}
