Newly Added Access Rights and Duration Settings For Device Sharing

Device Sharing lets you share your smart devices with others for easy teamwork. It allows users to give others access and control for a device. However, we've heard that it can take a while to remove shared users, and some people want to share specific permissions, not everything. We've listened to your feedback and made improvements to Device Sharing!

*Note: The new features are available in eWeLink app V5.0

Set Access Rights

Users can now choose whether to share permission to edit timers, preventing shared users from modifying timers. This is useful for parents sharing devices with kids - grant control but retain timer authority. If you're a house owner, you can provide the device access with house sitters without allowing timer changes.

Set Access Duration

You can restrict the time when a shared user can control a shared device. Share with a house cleaner and limit to a future weekday only or share with relatives and limit control to weekends only. When the access expires, the house cleaner no longer has the access to control the device.
