Maybe I am using the wrong app? Mine looks nothing like this. It only gives me option to “add device “. And that is where it asks me the network and password then times out when trying to connect.Hi, for question 1, the answer is yes, as per shown on App page: Selecting a working mode, connect through a mobile device.
for question 2, if you want to connect the ICV6 to your router, the router has to be
1) 2.4g wifi;
2) make sure the ICV6 is in breathing mode, as per instructed on App;
3) make sure the wifi name and passwords are correct,
and if it does not work you can have a try on resetting the ICV6 to have a check.
The methods of resetting ICV6 is:
1)cut the power,
2) press the power button and keep the power button pressed,
3)reconnect the power, while keeping the power button pressed until the red flash(Several times) is gone.
4)Add ICV6 again on the APP(Following APP instructions to make it breathing mode firstly).

Not what you want to hear but I detest the ICV6. It constantly dropped and had to be re added. It was frustrating and I was afraid to load it or mess with it for fear of ending up having to spend hours fixing it.
Hi this is wrong App, this is the Syna-G Cloud App, for another Jump Light device, not for ICV6; You need to download the newest Syna-G App from App Store or Google Play.
Hi, how about giving it a reset:

I have done this sooo many times. It sits in a drawer in the room of misfit aquarium toys. It just was so unreliable.
I’ve dealt with your tech support (and warranty) and it’s top notch!

Hi, ICV6 can only be controlled in LAN network, which means your phone and ICV6 should be in the same wifi range then you can control the ICV6 by phone.I set up my icv6 and from home its working fine , but if I go somewhere and use an other wifi icv6 Just not connecting , im not able to controll it ..
Hi Could you make and send a small video to [email protected] and we will have a check.

But this is absolutley sensless, I want use the wifi if im not home .. if im home and I can go to the aquarium why would I need wifi controll ? Are you serious ? This is the most stpd thing I ever heard .. I dont know now to cry or laugh OMG .. im very very very very dissapointed now , also you advertise it as a wifi controll , not as a wifi "if you are at home " controll

Searching around the forums but haven’t found a definite answer to this. Figured this thread my be a good place.
I can control both of my gyres via wifi by connecting to the maxspect wifi signal, but is there a way to control with wifi without having to switch to the maxspect network everytime?

You can use ICV6 to connect to your own 2.4g wifi, then to control ICV6 and your gyres

Thank you. But I’m confused.
to be clear, right now to turn off my gyres for example, I go to the wifi settings on my phone and I switch from my home network to the network that the ICV6 puts out.
after doing so, I can then control my gyres. I cannot control my gyres without first connecting to the maxspect-i6a1b…. Network.
I am wondering if I can control the gyres via the Syna-G app without having to switch from my home network to the maxspect network.
similar to what I can do with my Sicce pump and other devices (like home security cams, etc).
OK, may we know whether your home network is 2.4g network?
