Connecting your Govee Aura Table Lamp to Wi-Fi and the app is a simple process that allows you to control your lighting remotely and customize its colors and modes. Follow these easy steps to get your lamp connected and enjoy a smarter lighting experience.
Preparation Before Connecting
Ensure that your Govee Aura Table Lamp is plugged into a power outlet and turned on. Also, make sure you have a stable Wi-Fi connection, preferably 2.4 GHz, as many smart devices are compatible primarily with this frequency. Download the Govee Home app from the App Store or Google Play Store.
Step-by-Step Guide to Connecting
Step 1: Open the Govee App
Launch the Govee Home app on your smartphone. If you do not have an account, create one by following the on-screen instructions. Log in to your account to proceed.
Step 2: Add a New Device
Tap the ‘+’ icon or ‘Add Device’ button within the app. Select ‘Lighting’ from the device categories, then choose ‘Table Lamp’ or look for the Govee Aura model if listed.
Step 3: Power On and Reset the Lamp
Ensure the lamp is powered on. If it has previously been connected to another network, perform a reset by turning it off and on, or follow specific reset instructions provided in the user manual to enter pairing mode.
Step 4: Connect to Wi-Fi
The app will prompt you to connect the lamp to your Wi-Fi network. Select your 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi network from the list and enter the password. Wait for the connection process to complete.
Step 5: Complete the Setup
Once connected, the app will confirm successful pairing. You can now name your lamp, assign it to a room, and customize its settings. The lamp should now appear in your device list within the app.
Troubleshooting Tips
- Ensure your phone is connected to the same Wi-Fi network you are connecting the lamp to.
- Reset the lamp and try the pairing process again if it does not connect initially.
- Make sure your Wi-Fi is functioning properly and the signal is strong.
- Update the Govee app to the latest version for compatibility.
- Check if your router supports 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi, as some devices do not work with 5 GHz networks.
