Troubleshooting tips
If your Realme Smart Home devices are unresponsive, try restarting the Realme Link app and ensure your phone's Bluetooth and Wi-Fi are enabled. Also, check if the device is within range and not in power-saving mode.
For connectivity issues with Realme smart plugs or bulbs, reset the device by turning it off and on 5 times consecutively, then re-pair it with the Realme Link app.
If your Realme smart camera shows offline, check the Wi-Fi signal strength at the camera's location and consider moving the router closer or using a Wi-Fi extender. Also, ensure the camera's firmware is updated via the app.
When Realme smart sensors are not triggering automations, verify that the sensor's battery is not low and that it is placed correctly according to the user manual. Recalibrate the sensor in the app if necessary.
If you experience delays in Realme smart home automation, check for any network congestion and ensure your router supports 2.4GHz band, as most smart devices require it.
