Pair the device with your phone and establish a connection.

  • Make sure your mobile phone has an internet connection.
  • Activate Bluetooth on your phone.
  • Press ”Connect device” in the Colourpin app
  • Dubble click on the button on top of the device. This will make the device visible on your phone.
