Is my smart clock a public WiFi hotspot?

When I turn on and off the WiFi on my iPhone I see each of our three smart clocks as optional unsecure WiFi networks available to select? Are these publicly available WiFi hotspots? How do I turn the hotspot function off? This seems very odd.

Re:Is my smart clock a public WiFi hotspot?

Hi @Kirk2020,

 

After checking with my colleagues, I can confirm that the "hotspot" is a part of the setup process of the Smart Clock. It enables the user to connect to their device from the Home app and share / setup their secure network settings. Once the device is connected no one can access it unless they have access to that same secure network.

 

I hope it answers your question.

 

Best regards,

Is my smart clock a public WiFi hotspot?

Re:Is my smart clock a public WiFi hotspot?

Hi @Kirk2020,

 

Thanks for posting in the Community!

 

I'm not sure about the function of the wi-fi hotspots created by Smart Clock and I don't know if they can be turned off. I reached out to my colleagues for some help with this query. I will let you know as soon as I will have the answer. 

 

The hotspot disappeared for me as soon as the clock was correctly configured and connected to the Internet, so I suspect that it's needed for the initial setup process.

 

Best regards,
