FAQ

Which smart home devices can I connect to Yasmina?
You can connect many Wi‑Fi smart lights, plugs, some AC controls, and other common smart home brands that support voice assistants. Check that your device app says it works with voice control.
How do I start connecting a smart device to Yasmina?

Do my smart devices and Yasmina need the same Wi‑Fi?
Yes, typically they must be on the same home Wi‑Fi network. If you have guest or separate networks, keep Yasmina and your smart devices on the same one.

Do I need a subscription to control smart home devices?
Some basic voice control may work without a subscription, but full features typically need an active subscription. Check your plan details in the app.
Can I create routines, like turning lights off at night?

I am new to the UAE. Will my devices from another country work?
Some may work if they support your UAE Wi‑Fi power and frequency, and their apps work in the UAE. Check plug type, voltage, and app availability before using them.
