Get the Devicebook App

If you haven't already, get the Devicebook App for Android or iOS.

Smart Home Design & Set Up

Your Devicebook Smart Home will be designed, installed, and tested by a contractor you choose. If you are not yet working with a Devicebook Smart Home Contractor, you can find one here.

When the contractor is done installing and testing your smart home, it'll be time for you to create your Devicebook Account and take control of it.

Account Creation

When your smart home contractor transfers your new Devicebook Smart Home to you, you'll receive an email with a link to sign up for Devicebook. Tap that link in your email to choose a password for your Devicebook Account.

Take Control of your Smart Home

After you create your account using the link in your email from your contractor, you'll be prompted to take over your new Devicebook Smart Home. Accept the request, and you'll be in control.
