The Lightcloud Blue products use a Bluetooth mesh system to quickly commission and control lighting devices. Scale as you need, with RAB’s vast lighting portfolio of Lightcloud Blue enabled products. Control thousands of different lamps and fixtures from your phone, or for added convenience use RAB’s handheld Remote Control.
QUICK AND SIMPLE COMMISSIONING
RAB’s simple-to-use mobile app allows users to quickly pair and commission a residence or even large commercial project, in record time. Each device in our Bluetooth Mesh system can communicate with any other device, eliminating the need for a Gateway or Hub. Lightcloud Blue offers the ability to commission hundreds of devices simultaneously and begin controlling your space in minutes.
SECURE
Lightcloud Blue offers the industrial-grade security communications within the mesh network. All messages within RAB’s Lightcloud Blue network are encrypted and authenticated.
SCALABLE
Lightcloud Blue allows users to grow their system from a handful of devices to up-to 3,000 devices per app login. As devices are added, the system’s range increases – no Gateways or Hub required. Learn how to expand your system even further with Lightcloud Enterprise at www.lightcloud.com.
CUSTOMIZABLE
Personalize your space with a click of a button. The mobile app offers easy on/off, dimming, and color control. Group lamps and fixtures into Areas for the ability to control multiple devices at once. Create Scenes and Schedules and assign them to individual devices or Areas to quickly configure the lighting for your space.
LUMINAIRE LEVEL LIGHTING CONTROL (LLLC)
Qualifies for LLLC utility incentive programs. Wireless, integrated Lightcloud Blue controls enable fast commissioning and simple management. Make quick adjustments to sensor settings directly from the mobile app, including occupancy/vacancy, sensitivity levels, and manual settings for occupancy timeout. Reduce energy costs and improve occupant experience with granular or Area control using occupancy, dimming, high-end trim and more.
SMARTSHIFT
SmartShift is a circadian lighting system that matches the natural patterns of daylight and helps our bodies get back in sync with the sun. When enabled, it automatically tunes the color and intensity of lamps and fixtures throughout the day, mimicking the sun's changing light as it rises and sets. We’ve already created some SmartShift Presets for you in the app or create your own for customizable control.
SPECIALTY
Lightcloud Blue offers unique embedded features such as At-Home and Emergency Mode. At-Home creates the appearance that the space is occupied, by automatically scheduling lamps and fixtures to randomly turn on, dim, and turn off throughout the day. Emergency Mode serves as a visual notification that, when enabled, will randomly flash the lights to deter trespassers or signal there is an emergency.
SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
iOS 13 or higher
Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) 4.0 or higher
I use this app with my lighting system in my yoga studio and for the first six months of my business it was working great! There are some clunky features, but once you learn them the app really did well. But in the past couple days here my phone is no longer syncing to my system. Luckily I have some programmed buttons on my wall, but the app has become rather useless since the most recent update.
Connectivity issues
Ethanmonsterm
It’s really cool you can use the app to control lots of fixtures. I’m on a commercial job for a big warehouse right now and we assumed we could just screw in the sensors and they’d be good to go, but we found out that we had to use an app to connect them. Let me tell you it has been difficult. I understand the circumstances of me being in a big metal building and having 200+ lights. It’s just kind of frustrating that i have to turn off sections of lights at the breaker so i can connect to a few at a time. The biggest problem i’m having right now is “updating firmware”. It seems the sensors don’t actually work with the settings you put on the app until each one of the lights has been updated on its firmware in the app. It’s been incredibly slow costing hours on the job. At one point i was falling asleep because it was taking too long for a section (20 lights) to all update. It took an hour for one section! I wish there was better support for connecting, like maybe have some limiter on the app so i don’t have to turn off whole sections just for one section. The instructions could always be clearer, maybe have someone in the electrical field actually test, experience, and report for better information on what to provide in the instructions.
Developer Response
In our upcoming release of 3.0 we have solved this problem, hopefully you'll get a chance to give it a go with the new version.
Needs Face ID

Has to be the only app on earth that you can’t use Face ID to log in. Dumb.
Developer Response
Next version will have FaceID among other improvements
