FAQ

Q: How do I control my devices when I’m away from home?

A: All connected products can be accessed through the dedicated SMART HOME app, which acts as a remote command centre. As long as you have an internet connection, you can turn lights on or off, adjust the thermostat, lock doors, start the sprinkler system, or check camera feeds from anywhere in the world.

Q: Can I personalize the app’s home screen?

A: Absolutely. The start page is fully customizable – you can pin your favourite devices, set up shortcuts for the most used actions and even create a single‑tap button that launches a complex routine such as “Good Night” (which dims lights, lowers the heating and arms the alarm).

Q: What are the “home situations” and how do they work?

A: HOME SITUATIONS are pre‑defined profiles that instantly change multiple settings with one tap. For example, “Work‑From‑Home” might raise the temperature, turn on the desk lamp and activate the Wi‑Fi extender, while “Vacation” could lower the heating, switch the garden lights to a timer and enable the security cameras. You can switch between the four built‑in situations or create your own.
