Can I use the Shelly devices without Shelly Smart Control App?

Modified on Thu, 9 May at 2:10 PM


You have multiple options for controlling your Shelly devices without relying on the Shelly Smart Control App.


 Firstly, you can access and control them locally through the embedded web server of each device. Simply type the IP address of the Shelly device into your web browser to access its interface and manage settings.

Additionally, you can utilize MQTT (Message Queuing Telemetry Transport) protocol to control your devices through an MQTT broker. This allows for seamless integration with various home automation systems and platforms, giving you flexibility and control over your smart home setup.


Additional Information: By providing these alternative methods of control, Shelly ensures that users have the freedom to choose the approach that best suits their preferences and needs, whether it's through local access via a web browser or integration with MQTT-based systems for advanced automation capabilities.
