Connecting Feit Electric to Siri requires setting up a Smart Scene in the Feit Electric app. From the Smart Scenes screen, a new Scene can be created, allowing users to choose a device and the action they want it to perform. After configuring the desired actions, the Scene can be saved and a Siri Shortcut can be assigned to it. This enables users to control the action via Siri commands from their iOS device. For example, saying Hey Siri, Bedtime can execute the Bedtime scene automatically. However, it's important to note that certain generic keywords are reserved by Siri, which may require customization to avoid interpretation as system commands.

Using the Feit Electric App

The Feit Electric app allows you to control your Feit Electric devices and set up Automations and Smart Scenes. To set up a Smart Scene, go to the Home Menu at the bottom of the screen and tap "Smart Scenes". From there, you can tap the + sign to create a new Scene. You will then be prompted to select a device or group of devices and choose the action(s) you want the device(s) to perform.

Once you have set up your Scene, you can use it in Automations or assign a Siri Shortcut to it. To do this, go to the Smart Scenes screen and tap "Add to Siri". You will then be able to choose which Smart Scene you want to add as a Siri Shortcut. After selecting your desired Scene, tap "Add to Siri" at the bottom of the screen.

- Tap on the "Smart Scenes" option.
- On the Scene Tab screen, tap the "+" sign to create a new Scene.

Troubleshooting connection issues
If you're having trouble connecting your Feit Electric setup to Siri, there are a few things you can try.
First, make sure you have set up a Smart Scene in the Feit Electric App. To do this, go to the Smart Scenes screen and tap "Add to Siri". Choose the Smart Scene you want to add, then tap "Add to Siri" at the bottom of the screen.
If Siri still isn't responding to your voice commands, try using different phrases. Certain generic keywords are "reserved" by Siri and will be interpreted as system commands. For example, "Hey Siri, Lights On" will be interpreted as "Siri, turn on the lights", which is a HomeKit command. Try using more specific phrases like "Hey Siri, Bedtime" to execute the Bedtime scene.
You should also check that your devices are connected to the same network. The Feit Electric app requires that the device be on the same network as the unit, and you must be on that network before launching the app. This may involve changing your network each time before launching the app.
If you're still experiencing issues, try deleting and re-installing the Feit Electric app, and ensure that your Wi-Fi is working. The bulbs connect directly to your Wi-Fi, so a poor connection could be causing issues. If your Wi-Fi is down, the bulbs and dimmers with Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) technology will keep you in control via offline Bluetooth.
