Troubleshooting

Sensor not connecting to the app

Ensure a Shelly Bluetooth Gateway or compatible Shelly Plus/Pro device is within range and connected to your network. Verify Bluetooth is enabled on your phone and that the sensor is within Bluetooth range of the gateway/device. Try removing and re-adding the sensor.

False alerts or missed detections

Check the alignment between the sensor and the magnet. Ensure they are close enough when the door/window is closed. Verify the battery level and replace if low. Ensure the operating environment is within the specified temperature and humidity range.

Slow response times

Check the distance between the sensor and the Shelly Bluetooth Gateway or compatible Shelly device. Minimize potential sources of Bluetooth interference. Ensure the sensor's battery is not critically low.
