Installation
Step 1: Add Device
After downloading the App, go to Add Device from the left side menu. Then
select Curtain.
Follow the App instruction and add your device.
Select the Right Curtain Track
Select the Open Mode
For a single side curtain, tap “Open from right to left” or “Open from left to
right” depending on which way you want to open your curtain.
For a double side curtain, tap “Open from the middle”.
Step 2: Install on Your Curtain Track
Retrofitting is simple with SwitchBot Curtain. It only takes a few seconds to
make your existing curtains smart. It is straightforward and intuitive with
our App instruction.
-
Please fully close your curtain and then detach the end curtain hook from the track.
-
Take one Hook (I Rail). Push the Hook Button-down and hold. Then attach the Hook onto the curtain rail. When both of the Hook Wheels are aligned with the rail, release the Hook Button so that they are firmly attached.
-
Take the Main Body with a Hook (I Rail) installed. Push the Hook Button-down and hold. Then attach the Hook onto the curtain rail. When both of the Hook Wheels are
aligned with the rail, release the Hook Button so that they are firmly attached. The SwitchBot LOGO should face your room.
-
Pull the single Hook down and attach it back to the Main Body.
-
Put the curtain back in place so the Curtain is hidden.
Install the Clip (Optional)
If you use a double-sided curtain, you need two SwitchBot Curtains to open it
from the middle. Alternatively, you can use the auxiliary Clip we provide to
turn it into a single side curtain so that you only need one SwitchBot
Curtain.
To do that, fully close the curtain so the 2 panels are closest to each other.
Connect the upper parts of the two panels by using the Clip. Draw the curtain
back and forth to make sure the two panels move as one. Then you can refer to
Step 2: Install on Your Curtain Track on how to set the Curtain up.
Step 3: Calibration
Calibration is for your Curtain to adapt to your existing curtain track. You
need to calibrate before finishing the Installation or every time you change
the Open Mode. You
may redo the calibration after installing within the Settings.
Control
Lots of convenient ways to control, at your will.
App Control
Open and close the curtain at your fingertip. We offer intuitive App control
for iOS and Android, with weekly/bi-weekly updates following feedback from
you. OTA firmware
the update is also available for a better user experience.
Touch & Go
Even with SwitchBot Curtain, you’d probably still instinctively draw the
curtains by hand sometimes. When it senses you drawing the curtain, the
SwitchBot Curtain will kick in
and do the work for you. We call this Touch & Go.

**Voice Control and Home Automation***
Smart living is powered by your voice commands. Wouldn’t it be great to just
say it?
“Alexa, close the curtain.”
“OK Google, close my bedroom curtain.”
“Hey Siri, open the living room curtain.”
- Require SwitchBot Hub Mini (sold separately).
Control with SwitchBot Remote (Sold Separately) A wireless remote add-on for you to place anywhere.

Touch & Go
Even with SwitchBot Curtain, you‘d probably still instinctively draw the
curtains by hand sometimes. When it senses you drawing the curtain by more
than 5 cm*, the SwitchBot Curtain will kick in and do the work for you.
For double side curtain, drawing on one side of the curtain will trigger both
Curtains to open or close simultaneously.
“Touch & Go” is turned on by default. To turn off, go to “Advanced Settings”,
and turn off “Touch & Go”.
- 5 cm is the best threshold we tested because it lowers the possibility of false triggers by your cats and dogs.
**Voice Control and Home Automation*
You need to turn on Cloud Service in Settings and then connect the respective
service. Voice command can trigger fully open and fully close.
Alexa, close the curtain.
OK Google, close my bedroom curtain.
Hey Siri, open the living room curtain.**
- Require SwitchBot Hub Mini (sold separately).
SwitchBot Scene
You can set up SwitchBot Scene for home automation within the SwitchBot eco-
system when you turn on the Cloud Service within the Settings. There are
unlimited possibilities.
Control with SwitchBot Remote (Sold Separately)
You can pair a Remote in the Settings. Please place your phone, Remote, and Curtain close to each other before pairing. The rule of thumb for the distance would be within your eyesight. One key on the Remote can trigger one action of your single side curtain or double side curtain. For example, a key can trigger the curtain to close OR open. Please refer to the Remote user manual for the best support.
Settings
Tap the gear icon on the Home Page near the Curtain icon to go to the Settings. Or tap the Curtain icon to go to the Control page.
Light Sensing
The light-sensing feature allows triggering your device by sunlight.
It’s still in the beta stage and upgrading continuously, so please explore the
details in the latest app. Please send feedback via the SwitchBot App in the
left side menu with the details. Your feedback is very much appreciated.
Delay
You can set up 1 Delay for countdown action. You can set the countdown time,
percentage of opening or closing, and Motion Mode.
Schedule
You can set up 5 Schedules on board, or unlimited Schedules with a Hub. You
can set the day, time, percentage of opening or closing, and Motion
Mode.
Motion Mode
Performance Mode is the default mode with more powerful strength* but a higher
noise level.
Silent Mode has a lower noise level with less powerful strength. The best use
case would be waking up with sunshine.
