To Install Additional GFI Notify Smart Plugs

From the Home screen on the mobile app, tap on the + sign on the top right. Tap on the GFI Notify Smart Plug image. Follow the installation wizard.
- You need a licensed Smart Plug (See note below) for each additional circuit you want to monitor. The 1st two free Smart Plugs are automatically licensed.
When the plugs are installed, go to: GFlNotify.com on
your computer. Choose the FIG Notify LOG IN. Then LOG IN with your user name
or email address and password. Your installed Smart Plugs will be displayed.
Also note: The license fee for monitoring additional circuits is only $24
each, including the Smart Plug. All monitoring is done on a 24/7/365 basis
with no recurring monthly fees. To order go to
GFINotify.com
