HY DO YOU NEED TO CREATE A CLOUD ACCOUNT
?
In order to use the Smart Control application, the creation of a cloud account is now mandatory since
the new Bluetooth Mesh bulb range was introduced.
Having an account allows among other things to have its configuration automatically saved on the
Cloud and to share the preferences between users of the same household in real time.
Concerning the securing of the Bluetooth Mesh protocol, which is essential for a large-scale
deployment of connected light, single-source authentication is necessary in order to share the use of
Mesh bulbs within the same family on a private and secure network.
The creation takes less than 30 seconds, and once identified in the app, the user no longer has to
reset the login and password.
To share control of the bulbs with other smartphones in the house, simply install the Awox
SmartCONTROL application on these other smartphones and connect to the same account CLOUD
created on the first smartphone. The whole configuration of the house will be imported
automatically.
