Lights

Aqara lights support three scene control modes to flexibly meet diverse lighting needs:

  • Static Scene: Set and display a single color and brightness.
  • Dynamic Scene: Create a vivid atmosphere with dynamic transitions in color and brightness.
  • Sequence Scene: Customize the duration and order of transitions between colors for gradient or choreography effects.

You can either use Aqara's preset scene modes, create custom scenes according to your needs, or copy your custom scenes to other devices.
