The brand new Giesemann LYNK App provides a user friendly WIFI interface for all Giesemann smart devices like the new AURORA V-8. Features include easy set up, professional mode, online monitoring, data base and many other functions for all Giesemann WIFI products. Your Giesemann device doesn't require a permanent internet connection as it runs stand-alone. It just may be connected with your router during setup or even may adjusted by its own WIFI access point. The LYNK app provides a number of preset lighting programs as well as additional features including sunrise/sunset, lunar cycle, clouds and other weather simulation. The app offers as well an acclimation program for new aquarium setups. LYNK provides comfortable guidelines during setup and as well as useful notifications in the event of power outage. LYNK will be updated to include additional smart aquarium devices as they become available.

Hard to put any other way. I have used and liked Giesemann for years. They make quality hardware. But good lord their software is absolutely terrible-if it works at all. This app just doesn't work on my lights. Neither does the software for Mac that can be downloaded from the website. Add in the fact that Coralvue—worst customer service I’ve ever experienced from their light guy Chris—is their distributor and I think I’m going a different direction from here on out.

This App LYNK smart control operates with all GIESEMANN lights of the current generation, e.g. AURORA V8, AURORA V12, FUTURA pro, PULZAR G3/Lynk-control.... lights from older generations still use the existing software (please have a look at our website www.giesemann.de/en

Was under the impression that this app would control the original VerVve’s from what research I’ve done. Does not see them. Emailed Giesemann, they told me it’s only for the new line of lights that have WiFi. I asked why does it have a Bluetooth function. They have never responded. I’ve been waiting for a new app, which they told me was in works when I originally bought these lights. Old app is not user friendly.

This App controls all GIESEMANN lights of the latest generation, including the VERVVE G-3. For older models (controlled by bluetooth) please download the required app from our website. Note for information: Lynk-App uses bluetooth for location of your light for easy integration into your home wifi network.

The LYNK app has been optimized and improved.
