Njengamanye amamodeli, ukuxhumana kwayo kwe-WiFi kuzokwenza ungabi nezinkinga ngebanga layo enkabeni ye-HomeKit, kepha futhi nalawa ma-bulb ngeke ube nezinkinga nge-router yakho ye-dual-band. Zihambisana kuphela namanethiwekhi we-2,4Ghz WiFi kepha awanankinga ngamanethiwekhi asebenzisa igama elifanayo kumanethiwekhi we-2,4 ne-5GHz, Okudala izinhlungu eziningi zekhanda ngaphezulu kokukodwa.

Isibani se-LIFX Mini sihambisana ne-HomeKit ngqo, kepha Imodeli ye-A19 ingemva kokuvuselelwa kwesoftware, ngakho-ke kuzofanele uqale uyingeze kuhlelo lokusebenza, ulibuyekeze bese likunikeza ikhodi ye-HomeKit ukuze ulingeze kumadivayisi akho kuhlelo lokusebenza lwe-iOS Home. Futhi ziyahambisana nabo bonke abasizi bezwi: iGoogle Home, iCortana ne-Amazon Echo. Ngeke kudingeke ushade nomsizi futhi uzokwazi ukusebenzisa izikhulumi ezahlukahlukene ezizungeze indlu yakho ukulawula ama-LIFX akho kuzo zonke.

Njengoba kujwayele ukwenzeka kulawa madivayisi, uhlelo lokusebenza lomkhiqizi lusinikeza izinketho eziningi kune-iOS Home application. Kulokhu, imisebenzi icishe ingapheli, inezigcawu ezingenakubalwa nemiphumela engezwe ekushintsheni kombala wendabuko.. Vele ungalawula ukushisa kwesibani esimhlophe sesibani ngesandla, futhi usebenzise ngisho nomsebenzi we "Day and Dusk" (usuku nobumnyama) ohluka ngamandla nobushushu usuku lonke.

Lo msebenzi ubungakaze ubonwe kuze kube manje kunoma yimaphi ama-bulbs engikwazile ukuwahlola, futhi uqukethe ukuhlela uchungechunge lwamahora usuku lonke ukuze ukukhanya egumbini kube namandla amakhulu (noma kuvaliwe) namazinga okushisa. Vuka ngokukhanyisa okuthile, okuhlukahluka usuku lonke nokuthi ebusuku kuyehluka kuze kuyolala. Ngokuchitha isikhathi kulo msebenzi ungafinyelela ukukhanyisa ekamelweni lakho okusondele kakhulu emvelweni.
