Can I share with family and friends?
Yes, you can share your bulbs with family and friends who will have access to control your bulbs, plugs, cameras, and other Geeni devices. In the Geeni app, press the Profile button and click on the “Device Sharing” button, and you will be able to give or revoke sharing permissions. In order to share, the other user should already have downloaded the Geeni app and registered a new account.
Can I group multiple Geeni devices together?
Yes, you can group multiple devices of the same type together, by room, location, or however else you want. The same devices can be in multiple groups. (For example, create a group for “Bedroom” and another group for “Entire House”, and your Bedroom lights can be included in both groups). From your main device list, click on one of the devices you want to group. Press the “•••” button on the top right for advanced settings, and click Create Group.
