ilumi Smartbulbs allow you to set your own 'power-on' default light, so that whenever you turn your ilumi on, it will always return to the exact color you specified regardless of it's previous state. Below is a brief video as well as step-by-step instructions for setting up your ilumi Defaults.
Default Color
In the New ilumi app ( black and white ilumi logo), to set the "Default" color :
- In your "Dashboard" tap your group name, and swipe to the "Color" Screen, where the color wheel will be.
(Note: you can also set individual defaults for each bulb within a group by tapping the bulb you want to set and following these same instructions) - Select the color, saturation and brightness you'd like for your default.
- Tap the "Default" button in the lower right hand corner.
- Finally, tap "Set As Default".
Pro-tip: You can also set a custom shade of white as a default by selecting a color and decreasing the saturation to less than 25% using the left/right arrows in the central control diamond.
Default White
To set a "Default" white in the new ilumi app (black and white ilumi logo):
- In your "Dashboard" tap your group name, then swipe to the "Whites" Screen where you'll find a list of white light presets.
- Select the shade of white and brightness you'd like for your default.
- Tap the "Default" button in the lower right-hand corner of the screen.
- Finally, tap "Set As Default".
