This usually involves putting the motor into pairing mode (refer to motor's specific pairing sequence, often a button press on the motor itself).
3. App Control: Once paired, you can control the blinds directly from the Tuya Smart App or Smart Life App on your smartphone or tablet. This includes opening, closing, stopping, and setting schedules.
4. Voice Control: Integrate the Tuya Smart App with voice assistants like Amazon Alexa, Google Home, or Apple Siri. Once integrated, you can use voice commands such as "Alexa, turn up the shades" or "Hey Google, close the blinds."
