Getting Started with TS Smart Home: Complete Setup Guide

Welcome to TS Smart Home — the smart home platform by Techs Solutions that puts you in full control of your home, from anywhere in the world. Whether you just purchased your first smart plug or you are building a fully automated household, this guide walks you through every step of the initial setup process.

What You Need Before You Start

Before downloading the app, make sure you have the following ready:

  • A smartphone running Android 8.0 or iOS 13 or later
  • A stable Wi-Fi connection (2.4 GHz band recommended for most smart devices)
  • A Google account or a valid email address for registration
  • Your TS Smart Home compatible device (smart plug, switch, or any certified hardware)

Step 1: Download the TS Smart Home App

The TS Smart Home app is available on both major platforms:

Once the download completes, open the app. You will be greeted by the onboarding screen.

Step 2: Create Your Account

You have two ways to create an account:

Option A: Sign In with Google

Tap the "Continue with Google" button. You will be redirected to Google's secure OAuth 2.0 login page. Select your Google account, grant the necessary permissions, and you will be automatically logged in. No separate password is required.

Option B: Register with Email

  1. Tap "Create Account"
  2. Enter your full name, email address, and a strong password
  3. Tap "Register"
  4. Check your inbox for a verification email and confirm your address

Once registered, you will land on the Home Dashboard — your central control hub.

Step 3: Explore the Dashboard

The dashboard shows all your connected devices. At first it will be empty, but do not worry — adding your first device takes only a few minutes. From the dashboard you can:

  • View device status (online/offline, relay on/off)
  • Toggle devices on and off with a single tap
  • Access device settings and rename devices
  • Navigate to Automations, Schedules, and Account settings

Step 4: Add Your First Smart Device

To pair your first device:

  1. Make sure the device is plugged in and powered on
  2. Hold the button on the device for 5 seconds until the LED blinks rapidly (pairing mode)
  3. In the app, tap the "+" button on the dashboard
  4. Follow the on-screen pairing wizard — the app will guide you through connecting the device to your Wi-Fi network
  5. Give your device a name (e.g., "Living Room Lamp" or "Coffee Maker")
  6. Tap Save — your device is now live on your dashboard

Step 5: Test Your Device

Once paired, you will see your device card on the dashboard. Tap the power icon to toggle the relay on and off. Watch the physical device respond in real time. If the LED on the device changes state, your setup is complete and working correctly.

Step 6: Set Up Your First Automation (Optional but Recommended)

Now that your device is live, consider setting up a schedule:

  1. Tap on your device card to open its detail view
  2. Tap "Schedules"
  3. Tap "Add Schedule"
  4. Choose the days, time, and action (Turn On / Turn Off)
  5. Save the schedule

Your device will now automatically turn on or off at the configured time — every single day, without any manual input.

Tips for New Users

  • Name your devices clearly: "Kitchen Socket Left" is far more useful than "Device 3"
  • Keep the app updated: Updates bring new features, bug fixes, and security improvements
  • Enable push notifications: Get alerted when a device goes offline or a schedule runs
  • Check your Wi-Fi signal: Devices placed far from the router may have unstable connections

Troubleshooting First-Time Setup

If the pairing process fails:

  • Make sure your phone is connected to the 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi band, not 5 GHz
  • Restart the smart device by unplugging it for 10 seconds
  • Re-enter pairing mode by holding the button for 5 seconds again
  • Ensure your phone's Bluetooth and Location services are enabled during pairing

What's Next?

Now that your TS Smart Home system is up and running, explore these areas:

  • Automation Schedules — automate everything on a timer
  • Energy Monitoring — track electricity usage per device
  • SDK Developer Portal — build your own compatible hardware
  • Support — reach the Techs Solutions team directly from the app

TS Smart Home is designed to grow with you. Start with one device and expand at your own pace. The platform supports unlimited devices, multiple users, and a full developer SDK for those who want to go beyond standard hardware.

Welcome to the future of home automation.
