Can I change or delete the host email address linked to Control Anywhere?
Yes. If you are connected to your Wi-Fi, the host or any other approved user can edit/delete users that have access to Control Anywhere.
If you choose to delete the host email address, Control Anywhere access will be removed from all users and a new host email needs to be verified and Control Anywhere can be set up again.
If you are not the verified host or another verified user, you need to factory reset the hub to remove access and verification for Control Anywhere.
