Connection status

This article concerns:
  • Smart Lock
  • Opener
  • Smart Door

The Nuki app shows you detailed information about the connection status of your Nuki device. The connection status is displayed in the device settings. The connection quality of all components to each other is color-coded.

  • Green = stable connection between the components
  • Orange = limited connection between the components
  • Grey = no connection
Note:

The connection quality is calculated when the Wi-Fi connection is established. Only when the connection is re-established, the connection status is updated.
