The Häfele Connect Mesh App opens up new possibilities for setting up your smart home, linking, grouping and controlling Häfele Connect devices. The devices communicate with each other within the established Bluetooth mesh network and offer new possibilities of control. A smartphone or tablet is no longer necessary in daily operation. The fact that all devices now communicate with each other also results in a higher range. A BLE mesh network is also highly encrypted and therefore offers the highest level of data security. Features of the app in detail: - Create and manage Bluetooth mesh networks - Add new devices to the network ("Provisioning") - Organize your devices in rooms and groups - Link lamps, switches and many other devices together - Create scenes for all devices in a group - Set matching icons or photos for your groups and scenes - Export your mesh network configuration to family members - Add firmware updates and new functionality to your devices
