This App is now being phased out and is no longer being updated but will be available in the App store for the forseeable future. Search for the new App "Aurora AOne" in the next few weeks. Aurora Lighting, one of the world’s largest privately owned LED lighting and technology organisations, launched its range of smart home lighting devices in 2017 enabling homeowners to take full control of their home through their smartphone. Over the next few years more devices have been added to the range and the AOne range now features all varieties of lighting, from downlights to bulbs, switches and sockets. AOne offers a single solution for connecting your building. This is the latest version of the AOne smart lighting system that focuses on Spaces and Scenes using a new user interface. Use our app to control, schedule and set the scene of your lighting to create new ambiances and energy saving schedules that enhance your home, and your business, more conveniently. In combination with smart scheduling and new sensor types, you can automate your home, triggering your favourite scenes at different times of day, or when you enter your home, or office, to make your spaces intelligent. You can now have multiple events set for the same device making the setup of your building even more flexible. Recall your preset scenes and configurations at a touch of a button from anywhere, whether you’re sitting at home, or out at work, or with friends. Supporting Amazon Alexa, you can ask her to turn your devices on or off and trigger your favourite scenes. Switching on lighting has never been so much fun.
