What do I need to do to make my home smart with IKEA?

To get started with a smart home, you need to get the DIRIGERA hub and download the IKEA Home smart app.

The hub connects to your Wi-Fi router with the included network cable. Then you can add any of the smart products offered in our range such as smart lighting, blinds, air purifiers etc.
