Sengled Home is the latest smart home control app that replaces the earlier version -- Element Home. Sengled Home is a residential smart-products management platform, which provides you with an integrated mobile app to control, manage and monitor your Sengled smart products. With easy set-up, Sengled Home is able to quickly connect your smart products to the Internet, implement real-time communication between your cell phone and household devices through the cloud platform, and achieve remote controlling and monitoring. Moreover, it is able to customize a fully automatic control system based on your personal habits. CONTROL YOUR LIGHTS FROM ANYWHERE ON THIS PLANET Either 1 foot away from your Sengled smart device, or 10,000 miles away from your home, as long as you have internet, you can control or check the status of your devices. COLOR, COLOR TEMPERATURE AND BEYOND Transform your mobile device into a color palette, and your bulbs, your canvas. Choose from 16 million colors—or choose from Warm White to Day Light—and change the colors of your bulbs to match any mood you have. ROOM ARRANGEMENT AND GROUPING Sengled Home App enables you to easily bundle your smart LED lightbulbs into pre-set rooms, or create your own user defined rooms for grouping purposes. FRONT PAGE OR WIDGET CONTROLS MOST OF YOUR DEVICES With a simplified and optimized UI design, you can access and control most of the functions from the front page of the Sengled Home App. Scene control and Mobile home page Widget control even makes this process easier. SMART LED GETS SMARTER WITH SENSORS Sengled smart LED lights with built-in motion sensor can not only push notifications for any motion event, but also setup actions after detecting motion events. For example, turn on the lights in your bedroom when motion is detected in your backyard in the middle of the night. Sengled smart door sensor can also be used to link with your smart LED lights for event triggered actions. SCHEDULES, SCENES AND ROUTINES Either setup daily routines, such as waking or sleeping routines, for the convenience, or setup automation routines, such as turning lights on/off when sensor events were detected. Scenes can be created for multi bulb or multi room control. WAKE UP & SLEEP Sengled smart LED bulbs can be programmed for gradual brightening and wake you up with lights naturally. Sleep schedule will control the Sengled smart LED bulbs in night light for delayed dimming. LIGHT EFFECTS Six light effects would help users to have more fun with their Sengled products during parties or holidays like Halloween and Christmas. 3rd PARTY PROGRAM: After configuring the Sengled Home App, all the settings can be easily ported over to 3rd party programs, like IFTTT.
