What are "Groups"?
Short Definition
Groups are collections of devices that can be controlled together. Unlike rooms, groups are optional and devices can be members of multiple groups.
Every device can be a member of up to 14 groups simultaneously.
Detailed explanation
Groups allow you to control multiple devices at once, regardless of their location. This is particularly useful for:
- Controlling all lights of a specific type (e.g., all spotlights)
- Creating functional groups (e.g., all lights in the entrance area)
- Setting up scenes that affect specific devices
A device can be a member of multiple groups, but must be assigned to exactly one room. Groups can be created and modified at any time.
A group can be marked as a favourite (In control mode: Star symbol top right), so that it appears for quick access on the Home-Screen.
Groups are particularly useful when you want to control devices that are spread across different rooms or when you want to create specific lighting scenarios.
With the new app 2.0 version, the group concept was revised to be more flexible and independent of scenes, unlike in the app 1.x version.
