Your LittleBird web portal allows you to schedule Smart Home devices in vacant units with just a few clicks.
Locate a vacant unit
Log into the LittleBird web portal on your desktop device.
Browse to the Units & Residents (person) icon in the navigation column and click to reveal the unit list page.
When searching for a specific unit, note that vacant units will appear shaded and contain the No Residents label. You can also locate the vacant unit by:
Scrolling through the overall unit list, which is listed in numerical order.
Entering the unit’s number in the Search bar.
Once you’ve found your desired vacant unit, click on its unit number. Under the Devices section, you’ll see each of the Smart Home devices installed in the unit. Each device panel shows its device’s unique identification number (UID) along with any applicable battery levels, scheduling options, status indications, and control options.
Schedule vacant unit smart lights
If the unit has smart lights, locate the smart lights under the unit’s Devices section and click the Expand (v) icon.
Click + Add Schedule to view your scheduling options.
Use the Days option to indicate which days of the week you’d like the smart light to turn on. This feature will automatically assume that you want the light on every day. Clicking on a specific day of the week icon will deselect it and remove that day from the light’s schedule.
Click the Time dropdown menu to select the time of day you’d like the light to turn on.
If available, drag the Brightness toggle to choose how bright you’d like the light to be.
When you’re happy with your schedule selections, click the Save Schedule button to add the schedule to the smart light.
If you no longer wish to add the schedule, simply click the Cancel button.
If you’d like the brightness of the lights in the vacant unit to automatically adjust again at a different time in the day, follow these steps to create another schedule for that desired time.

If the unit has a smart thermostat, locate the smart thermostat under the unit’s Devices section and click the Expand (v) icon.
