Setup and account
Members, homes, backups and everything behind the scenes
Share your home with family, manage what each person can reach, look after your account, and change how the app behaves.
A smart home is shared. Settings is where you add family members and decide what they can control.
It is also where you manage your homes and rooms, your account, and the app's own behaviour.
All 21 features in this section
Edit Home Details
You can change your home's name or update its location whenever needed.
Add a Guest User
You can give someone temporary access to your home — like a guest, relative, or house help — and set an expiry time so the access ends automatically.
Home Management (Manage Multiple Homes)
The Home section lets you manage more than one property in the app. You can create a new home, join someone else's home, edit details, or choose your main (default) home. This suits people who manage a flat, villa, office, or parents' house.
Default Home, Editing, Secondary Users, and Switching
Explained step by step in the user manual.
Transfer Primary Access (Make Someone Else the Owner)
This moves the main control of a home from one account to another — for example, from
Settings → Devices: Edit Device Name or Room
You can rename a device or move it to another room if it was added to the wrong one.
Device Warranty Details
You can check the warranty information for any device in the app.
Device Health and Signal Strength
This shows how well a device is connected to your Wi-Fi, so you can fix weak connections.
Reconfigure Device (Wi-Fi Setup Again)
If a device gets reset or loses Wi-Fi, you can reconnect it to your home network without losing your scenes, workflows, or schedules.
Hide Switches in the App
You can hide switches you don't use, so the app stays clean and simple.
Change Wi-Fi Details
This updates the Wi-Fi name and password saved on your smart devices. When you change your home Wi-Fi, the devices need the new details to stay connected.
View All Schedules and Routines
This shows all your schedules and routines in one place, so you can see your full automation setup clearly.
Support
The FAQ section explains every feature and gives common troubleshooting tips, so you can solve small issues yourself.
Raise a Support Ticket
If you face a problem, you can raise a complaint and the support team will follow up.
Voice Control
This shows whether your voice control (like a voice assistant) is connected to the app.
App Language
You can use the app in the language you are most comfortable with.
Profile → Security (Login Session Management)
This keeps your account safe. You can see your login history, check which devices are signed in, and log out any device — or all devices — whenever you want.
Profile → App Preferences
This lets you control notifications and other app settings to suit you.
Smart QR Tags
A Smart QR Tag is a QR code you create in the app and attach to something in the real world. Anyone who scans it sees exactly the information you chose to share, and nothing else.
Home Console
Home Console turns an Android tablet or Android display into a dedicated control panel for your home. Mount it on a wall and the whole family can use the house without anyone reaching for a phone.
Delete Account
The Delete Account option permanently removes your account and its data from the app. It cannot be undone, so make sure anything you want to keep has been saved somewhere else first.
Every one of these is explained step by step in the Settings Page manual page.
