Connect the web app
The web app talks to your device over Web Bluetooth, straight from the browser. There is nothing to install and no app store.
Which browser
Section titled “Which browser”| Where | What to use |
|---|---|
| Windows, macOS, Linux, ChromeOS | Chrome or Edge |
| Android | Chrome |
| iPhone and iPad | The V Browser, Focus V’s own browser app. Safari and the other iOS browsers cannot do Web Bluetooth. |
The app must be opened over HTTPS, which the normal address already is. If your browser cannot do Web Bluetooth, the app says so and, on iPhone and iPad, sends you to The V Browser with the address copied.
Connect
Section titled “Connect”-
Open app.dialed.diy. Wake the device (5 clicks switches a switched-off device on).
-
On the Connect tab, choose Connect a device. Your browser shows a chooser listing nearby Bluetooth devices.
-
Pick your rig. The app checks what it is running:
- Dialed Control found: it reads the device’s details and opens the dashboard.
- Factory firmware found: it offers the install.
-
Check the header that stays on screen: the Bluetooth name, board, firmware version, battery and connection state.
The device’s clock is set from your computer’s on every connection. That dates your session history, and smart standby needs it.
The other tabs
Section titled “The other tabs”- Demo runs the whole app against a simulated device, so you can look around without a rig.
- Install is the install flow for a device on factory firmware.
- Account is optional sign-in. See accounts and privacy.
Add it to your home screen
Section titled “Add it to your home screen”On a phone, the Settings page has an Add to home screen card. The app then opens full-screen like any other app.
If it will not connect
Section titled “If it will not connect”- Make sure the device is on and not already connected to another app. Only one app at a time can hold the Bluetooth link, so close the official Focus V app first.
- The device may be asleep. Press the button once to wake it.
- If the chooser shows Dialed SAFE, the device is in safe mode.
