The process involves connecting your phone to the Shelly device's Wi-Fi, accessing its local web page through a browser, setting up Wi-Fi details for the device, updating its firmware, reconnecting your phone to your usual Wi-Fi network, and finally, adding the device to the Shelly app through network scanning.
1. Connect the phone to the Shelly’s Wi-Fi Access Point. It should look like ShellyModelName-541268176fa1. Don’t worry if “No internet” message appears.
2. When connected to the Shelly open the phone’s browser and type 192.168.33.1. This will open the local web page of the device.
3. Go to Settings -> Wi-Fi and enter the Wi-Fi name and password the device should connect to. Make sure it’s a 2.4 GHz network.
4. Go to Settings -> Firmware and update the device to the latest firmware version available.
5. Connect the phone back to your Wi-Fi network.
6. Open the Shelly Smart Control app, press the plus button and select “Scan your network for devices”. When the device appears press the “Add Device” button and follow the instructions.
