You can also migrate a network that you have already created with the previous version of the Häfele Connect Mesh app, version 1.x. You can find out how this works here.

Import local network​

Select the existing .connect file from your internal storage and import it. The import process will start and run through automatically.

How do I create a backup of a network?​

How do I delete a network?​

  3. Select the desired network and press 'Forget'.
note

Please note: If you delete a network from the app, your Mesh devices will continue to work. However, you can no longer control or change the network with the app. In this case, you must manually reset all devices and add them to a new network.

Archive Network​

You can archive networks that you have commissioned. These are then moved to the "Archive" list. This allows you to distinguish active networks from archived ones.
