Climate Widget Updates

We've updated the previously-named Weather Widget to now add indoor climate through the thermostats that you have connected in your home. Henceforth, we will be referring to the widget as the Climate Widget

As your pictures cycle, your climate widget will cycle through outside weather and thermostats in your home. 

 

Alert to Auto Enable Amazon Alexa

Brilliant is actively helping you set up your Alexa home properly. If you have set up your Alexa Voice Assistant but may not have set up your Home Skill to control your connected lights, we will help you automatically do that once you tap the Alert in the Alert Center.
