Create and use scenes in Home on iPhone
In the Home app , you can create scenes that allow you to control multiple accessories at once. For example, you might define a “Reading” scene that adjusts the lights, closes the drapes, and adjusts the thermostat.
Create a scene
Tap the Home tab, tap , then tap Add Scene.
Tap Custom, enter a name for the scene (such as “Dinner Party” or “Watching TV”), then tap Add Accessories.
Select the accessories you want this scene to include, then tap Done.
The first accessory you select determines the room the scene is assigned to. If you select your bedroom lamp, for example, the scene is assigned to your bedroom.
Set each accessory to the state you want it in when you run the scene.
For example, for the Reading scene, you could set the bedroom lights to 100 percent and the thermostat to 68 degrees.
Use scenes
Tap the Rooms tab, tap , choose the room the scene is assigned to, then do one of the following:
Run a scene: Tap the scene.
Change a scene: Touch and hold a scene, then tap Settings.
You can change the scene’s name, test the scene, add or remove accessories, and include the scene in Favorites.
Favorite scenes appear in the Home tab.
