Hi,
I changed the local settings to China in Mi Home app and that works well now.
Thank You for your help!
I tried it (Hungarian app stores):
– iPhone SE (IOS 10.2): Mi Home app doesn’t recognize this lamp, unable to set the lamp on this (IOS) platform.
– Android 6.0.1 (Samsung Galaxy J5 2016): Mi home app doesn’t manage this lamp, they sees the device as powered off.
I haven’t found solution yet.
Hi, Please try to change the local to China. Only after that it’ll work.
