Thanks to Siri shortcuts, you can also easily control our lamps from the lock screen.
To do this, simply swipe to the right on the lock screen and you will be in the sidebar with the widgets. Even in the "Sleep" focus, there is a quick access on the lock screen that you can use to control your WiFi lights.
Note: You may need to adjust your iPhone settings to do this (see further optimizations at the bottom of this article in points 2 and 3).
We will show you how to set up your Klyqa products with Siri shortcuts and voice commands in the following steps:
1) Control Klyqa grouped together with Philips Hue or other Smart Home products
After you have created the Klyqa shortcut, you can simply add other smart home or smart light products (e.g. Philips Hue) as an action using the Siri Shortcuts app. To bundle several products from different manufacturers in one place with your iPhone or iPad , you can use Siri Shortcuts or shortcuts in addition to Google Assistant or Alexa. Apple's in-house app is ideal as the control center for your smart home and offers many functions similar to HomeKit. Many smart products have a Shortcuts connection, so that not only Klyqa products, but also other lamps (such as Philips Hue) or other smart home products (such as a smart socket) can be controlled from there. Provided they also work with Siri Shortcuts.
To do this, add other Smart Home or Smart Light products like Philips Hue as an action after you have created the Klyqa shortcut directly via the Siri Shortcuts app.
2) Adjust your iPhone settings to use shortcuts on the lock screen:
If you want to use your shortcuts even when your iPhone is locked , change the following settings:
First, go to your iPhone Settings > Face ID & Passcode and then activate the sidebar via 'Today View and Search'. If your screen is still locked, you can swipe to the right to access your smart commands.
3) Adjust your iPhone settings to use shortcuts in the Sleep focus:
In the Shortcuts app, tap the three dots in the top right of a shortcut. Then tap the sliders in the top right to open the details.
Enable the option 'Show sleeping in focus'.
Note : This only works if you have set a sleep schedule in the 'Health' app.
Tap Done.
Due to the firmware, it may occasionally happen that GU10 spotlights cannot be set up.
To solve this problem, you should set up one spotlight at a time, and not all the lamps at the same time. It is best to remove the spotlights that are not being set up from the socket in the meantime and only screw the one that is currently being connected into the socket.
After all the spotlights have been set up separately, they can all be connected and work at the same time.
There can be various reasons why onboarding doesn't work. Here are a few solutions.
Too little distance:
Try to keep your phone as close to the lamp as possible, while at the same time keeping the lamp as close as possible to the WiFi router.
Manual selection of the lamp in the WLAN list:
If the app has not been able to establish a connection to the lamp after a long time, try selecting the lamp directly in the WLAN settings and connecting it that way. If it does not appear there, it helps to turn it off and on.
Lampshade:
Depending on the lamp, there is a possibility that the lampshade is shielding the WiFi signal too much. If the lamp is in a metal lampshade, the metal shade can interfere with the frequencies. This can be the case in particular with candles (E14 lamps and GU10), as the smaller socket means that a smaller chip or antenna is installed. Try to carry out the setup process in another lamp with less "shade". You may also be able to remove the lampshade for onboarding.
You shouldn't have any problems using it later. You only need such a strong connection when setting it up.
Mobile data:
There is a chance that you may encounter issues during the setup process because your phone's mobile data is turned on. It is best to turn it off while setting up your lights.
Too much at once:
If you have several WiFi lightbulbs in use (or other WiFi products), switch them off for the onboarding process. Afterwards, you can use all WiFi products as usual.
Please only set up one lamp at a time. For lampshades with multiple sockets, you should also set up your lamps one at a time to ensure a smooth onboarding.
Please note that if you want to control your bulbs via a hotspot, only a limited number of devices can be connected to it.
Router security settings:
Different router models and their default settings can cause problems when setting up our lamps. For example, it can help to set the security standard "WPA2" to "WPA2+WPA3".
Maybe your problem lies somewhere else?
If you cannot connect your lightbulb to the Wi-Fi despite trying several times, make sure that your Wi-Fi has a 2.4 GHz connection .
We explain here why you need a 2.4 GHz network.
If the lamp does not automatically connect to the Klyqa WiFi, try manually using your WiFi settings and then press "try again". Sometimes the lamps have a bad day and you have to try several times.
If you have problems with the password: The input field for Wi-Fi passwords currently only accepts up to 30 characters.
Factory Reset:
In case none of this helps, try performing a factory reset . This is definitely necessary if you canceled the installation process.

If you still have problems, please contact us and we will get to the bottom of the matter together.
Setting it up is child's play, here we explain how it works.
Basically, all you have to do is click on the + in the top right of the app and select "Add device". Make sure that the lamp is switched on. Follow the steps in the app and it will now search for the smart light bulb.
