Hi
This is probably basic, but I can’t find how to rename a dimmer on the supla app on iPhone.
I have a 4gang Varilight smart dimmer. I have renamed the location, but can’t see how to rename the individual dimmer switches. Surely I don’t have to settle for dimmer 1, dimmer 2 etc?
Thanks for reading.

Hold the name with your finger for a few seconds. If that doesn't work, you can also rename it to cloud.supla.org

Thanks very much. Holding the name in the app doesn’t work for the device, but was able to change the name in the cloud, via a browser.

Great. Thanks!

As a follow up, how can we get the name of the dimmer to change in the app? I’ve renamed them in cloud but the app doesn’t show the name, just “dimmer “ - see attached screenshot

Thanks,
John

You can change the name to cloud.supla.org or by holding the name in the app. Where exactly did you change the name in cloud? Can you send a screenshot?

Hi, there are a couple of places to change what I thought was the device name, but I found it eventually, and it updated in my app.
In the device details, there is configuration, where I updated the name, and it shows in the app.
