Open the App and click the "+" button on the upper right corner, then click the sensor button in the "Add a device" panel and follow the instructions in the app to pair the device.
After the device is successfully connected, click the 'Device' tab at the bottom bar. The button representing your Fingerbot will appear in the device collection panel. You can click it to trigger the Fingerbot’s default action.
Long press the device button to enter the device control panel. There are more options for adjusting the device, such as mode choice, up/down movement, sustain time, etc.

The physical button allows the Fingerbot to be activated without using your phone. Place your finger on the button at least 0.1s. The Fingerbot will be triggered.
To install your Fingerbot:
1. Clean the surface of the button panel where you want to install the Fingerbot.
2. Attach the Fingerbot to the panel using a double-sided tape provided in the Fingerbot package.
3. Connect your Fingerbot with the app and calibrate the movement of the Fingerbot's robotic arm to fit the button. The 'Down Movement' parameter should be set to the value at which the Fingerbot's arm can press the button.
Note: Improper movement settings may bring additional resistance and reduce the life of your Fingerbot.
4. After installation, we recommend resting the device for 24 hours to reach maximum adhesion.
