6.9.0
Oct 4, 2022
We’ve added a number of enhancements to the Cync app in 6.9 that improve the performance of your smart home devices, including:
• Auto Update, which is a new feature that will automatically update the firmware of your eligible Cync devices overnight. Enabled by default, Auto Update ensures that you get all the latest performance improvements and features without ever needing to do manual firmware updates in the Cync app. This feature is supported by almost all Cync Wi-Fi enabled devices. Bluetooth-only devices like the original C by GE bulbs, remotes, and motion sensors will still need to be updated manually using the Cync app. You can disable this feature in the settings for your Home.
• Additional improvements to firmware update flows in the app, resolving bugs where updates could fail to start, or fail to finish repeatedly.
• Connectivity enhancements, especially for homes with more Cync devices or with larger floorplans where devices are further apart from each other.
