It supports registration by email or mobile phone number. We suggest you update your app to the latest version.
<span style="color:#FF0000">  '''Users from Asian countries should register with mobile phone number. While users outside Asian area should register with email address. Turkey users also need to register with phone number.But sometimes the app will judge which server is more stable in your location, then it will auto judge whether to let you connect with Asian servers (register with phone number) or other servers(register with email). '''</span> 
 

Select your country/region code, input a valid mobile phone number, then your phone will receive an SMS containing a verification code on the phone number you provided. If you do not receive the SMS, please disable SMS blocking. If registered by email address, you'll also need to select a random country code, you’ll receive an email containing a verification code. Fill in the verification code and password, confirm password and submit. For safety, the password should be no less than 8 characters. <span style="color:#FF0000">If you failed to receive any code, please submit a feedback on the App.</span>

One account can only log in to one mobile phone. If you have logged in with phone A, later you log in with phone B, your device will auto-exit from phone A.

===Reset Password===

===WiFi Pairing and Device Addition===
eWeLink obtains device status and controls devices by sending commands through the cloud server. This means all devices must first connect to the WiFi router and connect to our Amazon AWS server. So every new device must be paired with user's home WiFi and added to eWeLink account.

Before adding a device, Android phone must allow WiFi. Please make sure the WiFi your phone connects is the same as the one you select in eWeLink device pairing WiFi option. Please note that all eWeLink products should be paired via the WiFi router, starting from 3.1.0, LAN is not allowed any more.  

Instructions are given below on how to pair with WiFi and add a new device:

[[File:ewelink add device (2).jpg|400px]]

Step 1. Long press your device WiFi pairing button until it begins fast blinking. 

Step 2. Open eWeLink. Click "+" to add the device. For Android, please select the pairing icon according to how the LED blinks. Click NEXT.

For iOS, please go to phone Setting>WiFi>connect to the WiFi that begins with ITEAD-*****, enter default password 12345678. Then go back to eWeLink, select the pairing icon (TOUCH or AP) according to how the LED blinks. Tap on NEXT.

[[File:pairing_icons.jpg|600px]]

A reminder here: if the phone asks a similar question like "eWeLink wants to locate your position, accept or reject?" Then please always click ACCEPT. Otherwise, it may cause a failed pairing.

[[File:ewelink pairing.jpg|400px]]

Step 3. Enter your home WiFi SSID and password. You must make sure the WiFi your are entering with is the same with the one your phone connecting. If different, it will cause offline problem. If no password, keep it blank. For the present, eWeLink only supports 2.4G wifi communication protocol. 5G band Wi-Fi network is not supported. Tap on NEXT.

[[File:ewelink name device.jpg|400px]]

Step 4. eWeLink will auto-search and connect to your device. After this process, you can name the device and submit. That's all!

<span style="color:#FF0000">After successfully added, make sure you don't change the WiFi the product connects. Once you change the WiFi, you must delete and re-add it to your account via the new WiFi.</span>

===Device List===
[[File:ewelink all devices.jpg|400px]]

After successfully added, all devices will be seen in the device list. Users can see which devices are online which are not. Users can also see WiFi signal strength, and whether there is new firmware to update, etc. Users can directly turn on/off the device by tapping the small switch icon. Besides, users can delete devices by tapping on the delete icon. Tap on the clock icon to see all timing schedules.

[[File:ewelink group management.jpg|400px]]

If you have too many devices, you may group them. Tap on the top "All Device"  option to expand the group information. Click "Manage Group" to set up different group for your devices.

===Device Details===
Tap on a specified device to enter into device control interface. Different devices will have different functions and layout. Take some devices for example.

[[File:eWeLink Control Interface.jpg|600px]]

For [[Sonoff TH]], users can see real time temperature and humidity. It also provides the capability to set manual/auto control mode. For dimming LED, users can adjust light color and brightness. For iFan, users can adjust among natural/sleep/normal mode, and in normal mode, users can adjust the wind level from 1-3.

Although different device types will have a different interface, they still have some icons in common. 

Setting: change device name, chec the firmware version, enable/disable vibration switch.

[[Product]] info.: check manufacturer and model.

Share: the owner can share the device to other eWeLink users.

Timer: add new single/repeat schedules to turn on/off the device.

Countdown: add countdown timers to turn on/off the device.

===Device Settings===
In the upper right corner, there's a button contains device "Setting" and "Delete". In "Setting", you can change the name of device and channel. Check firmware version and update to latest firmware. You can enable or disable touch vibration. And most importantly, you can set power on state for your device. Usually, when the electricity is cut off, when it comes again, your switch stays in off. Now by setting power on state, your device will automatically in ON, OFF or KEEP when power on. KEEP: your device will be in the same state as it is before electricity cut off.

[[File:operation_records_1.jpg|400px]]

===Share Control===
Device owner can share control of the devices to others, and thus others can turn on/off the device on eWeLink. In sharing the owner can authorize timer permissions to let the other users create, modify, edit and delete timers. This functionality is great for the family as it will be great to invite them to control together. There isn't a limit to the number of users you can share with.

[[File:share-1.jpg|400px]]

[[File:share-2.jpg|400px]]

While sharing devices, both should stay on eWeLink. Because if the account you want to share is not online, he/she will not receive the invitation message. 

How to make it? Firstly click Share, enter the eWeLink account info.(select country code, enter phone number or email address) you want to share, tick the timer permissions you want to give, then click OK. Remember do not enter the country code with your phone number. The other account will receive an invitation message. When he/she click Accept, the device will be shared successfully. The other user will have access to turn on/off the device and to change the timers.

Once the device has been deleted by the owner, it will disappear from the others' shared list.

<span style="color:#FF0000"> Note：</span>

<span style="color:#FF0000">1.Only when the two accounts are registered on the same continent (connecting the same servers of that continent) can be shared with, no cross-continent accounts can be shared. If you use VPN to create accounts, it may connect to a different server. If you are located at the junction of two continents, for example, Asian-European junction, your accounts may connect to different servers. So it's impossible to share from a phone number based account to an email account or vice versa.</span>

<span style="color:#FF0000"> 2. The other users you share with can't access to scene, group or device power on status.</span>

===Timing Task===
Timing task is a basic feature of all devices. The timing setting allows you to set a specified time to turn on/off the device. Please note that deal to chip capacity limit, it supports totally 8 enabled timing tasks each device(including scheduled/countdown/loop timers). Currently, we provide three timing types: '''scheduled timing, countdown timer and loop timing'''. 

====Schedule Timing====
In schedule timing, you can set single/repeat timing. 

[[File:ewelink schedule timing.jpg|400px]]

====Countdown Timing====
Countdown timer allows users to turn on/off the device after a preset time. 

[[File:ewelink countdown timer.jpg|400px]]

====Loop Timing====
Loop timer can be found in the Device Setting. Loop timer can be auto-executed every preset time(say 1hr), and continue for a shorter preset time(say 20min). You can also choose not to tick the continuous cycle. For example, use loop timer to control oxygen pump for the fish tank. You can use loop timer to turn on oxygen pump every hour, and keep it running for 20min and then auto-turn off each time.

The screenshot below is set the device to turn on every 10min and keep it working for 5min each time.

[[File:ewelink loop timer.png|400px]]

'''Loop timer supported devices (updating):'''all 1 gang switch/socket(required firmware ver. 1.5.0 and higher, G1 is excluded from the list), including S20 smart socket, Sonoff Touch, Sonoff, Sonoff SV, Sonoff TH10/TH16, Sonoff RF, Slampher, Sonoff Pow (required firmware ver. 2.0.3 and higher), Motor Clockwise/ Anticlockwise Running WiFi Wireless Switch, 1 Channel Inching /Self-Locking WiFi Wireless Switch 5V/12V, S30 Smart Socket, Sonoff T1- 1 Gang, RF Bridge 433-the added RF Remote.

===Scene ===
A scene is set up to auto-execute an action for all devices in the same scene. There are three kinds of scenes, they are different in the trigger condition. The first one is triggered by a click, the second one is triggered by some data of a device, such as temperature, humidity, light, air quality and noise level, the third one is triggered by status from another device. Note that only device owner can create scenes, and <span style="color:#FF0000">the system can save max 21 scenes.</span> Scenes can't be shared to other users.

<span style="color:#FF0000">IFTTT doesn't support to use one applet to trigger another applet, so as our scene feature. </span>

For example, you created two scenes: when device A is turned on, then turn on device B.
When device B is turned on, then turn on device C.
The result is: When your device A is turned on, only device B can be turned on, while device C won't be turned on.


====Click to execute====

By creating a scene like this, users can turn on/off a group of devices simultaneously. For example, create a scene “Leave”, add all the devices to be set on or off to the scene, save it. Once you shut the door, take out your phone and enter into the scene, go to scene “Leave”, tap on “Run”, all devices will be turned off immediately.

[[File:scene_click_to_execute.jpg|400px]]


Users should select “Click to execute” in the condition, add different existing devices, name the scene and save it. The 2 channel and multi-channel devices can even set power on state: on, off or keep. 

[[File:scene_run.jpg|400px]]

If you don't find your device on the list, please check if your app version is too low. You should always update to the latest version, which supports most features.


====Triggered by device data range====

This kind of scene is usually called smart scene. Users can set a data range as a condition to trigger ON/OFF other devices. You may set a specified temperature/humidity/light intensity/sound level range from Sonoff SC, Sonoff TH, S22, At Home/Away status from Nest or RF Bridge's alarm as a condition to trigger on/off one or more smart devices under your account. 

[[File:scene_trigger_by_device.jpg|390px]][[File:ewelink_sonoff_th_smart_scene.jpg|400px]]

Supported Devices(updating):

Trigger devices: Sonoff SC, Sonoff TH (old version), Sonoff TH10, Sonoff TH16, S22, Nest Thermostat, RF Bridge 433 (Android 3.1.0 and higher)-the added Alarms.

Execute devices: except the trigger devices, all ITEAD smart devices are included, RF Bridge 433 (Android 3.1.0 and higher)-the added RF Remote controller.

====Triggered by device status====

We have supported a new type of scene that triggered by device's status. If device A status get changed, then the status of selected device will change to preset status. 

For example, you can set when Sonoff SV is ON, then execute turn on 4ch light one and turn off B1.
