How do I connect my LEGO BOOST to the app?
Connecting your LEGO BOOST Move Hub to the app is a straightforward and largely automatic process that happens directly within the app when you're ready to start building and coding.
The LEGO BOOST app simplifies the connection process, eliminating the need for manual Bluetooth pairing through your device's settings. The connection is initiated automatically by the app itself as part of your creative workflow.
The Automatic Bluetooth Connection
Your LEGO BOOST Move Hub connects to the app via Bluetooth. This connection is not something you need to set up beforehand in your device's Bluetooth settings. Instead, the app manages this automatically. You will be prompted to connect when it's time to activate your creations.
Step-by-Step Connection Guide
Connecting your LEGO BOOST Move Hub to the app is integrated into the project selection process. Follow these simple steps:
- Open Your LEGO BOOST App: Launch the LEGO BOOST app on your compatible device (e.g., tablet or smartphone).
- Select a Project: Within the app, navigate through the available projects and select the one you wish to build or program. This action signals to the app that you're ready to interact with your Move Hub.
- Respond to the App's Prompt: Once you select a project, the app will prompt you to turn on your Move Hub and connect. When you see this prompt, simply press the green button on your Move Hub.
That's it! This process is completely automatic: just press the green button on your Move Hub when you're prompted to, and the app will do the rest, establishing the Bluetooth connection and preparing your Move Hub for activity.
Key Points for a Smooth Connection
- App-Driven: The entire connection is initiated and managed by the LEGO BOOST app, not your device's operating system.
- On-Demand: You connect your Move Hub when you select a project, ensuring it's ready precisely when needed.
- One Button Press: The only action required from you is pressing the green button on the Move Hub when prompted by the app.
