The operation is easy, just follow my steps
Step 1. Search for the MiHome app on Google Play / Apple Store (Android users can directly scan the QR code), then download and install it.
Step 2. Log in to your Xiaomi account, enter the app interface (register one first if you don't have). Tap the right top "+" button to enter the device search and selection interface.
Note: only the MiHome app is able to connect and control the Xiaomi bulb.
Step 3. Find out the "Yeelight Color Bulb" and tap to add this device. Within the device interface, follow the guide to turn on the bulb. And then connect your phone to WiFi (do not contain any Chinese characters in your Wi-Fi router). Tick the "Device is powered on" confirmation. Tap "Next" to continue.
Step 4. Enter your WiFi password in APP. Tap "Next" to continue, now you have created a Wi-Fi network provided by the bulb.
Step 5. Enter "Settings" in your phone and WiFi interface. Choose the Wi-Fi "yeelink-light-xxx" and connect. Once successfully connected, go back to the app.
Step 6. Wait until the app pairs with the phone and bulb. The bulb will show on the app main screen as "Yeelight Color Bulb".
Step 7. Initialize the Xiaomi Yeelight smart LED bulb. Tap the device to start initialization (required for first time connection). Wait until it finishes. Tap "Let's get started" to access app remote control interface. Now you can use a phone to control the bulb remotely (the connection is completed).
If you have followed the above steps but still cannot connect, please refer to these reasons and solutions: |
1. System error: simply reset and re-connect
