This topic describes the custom hotspot service.
When a smart device is being paired in access point (AP) mode, it can broadcast a Wi-Fi signal that can be received by a mobile phone.
You can subscribe to the custom hotspot service to modify the name of the hotspot broadcast by the device. In this way, you can display your brand name or a specific name in the list of Wi-Fi networks on users’ mobile phones. The custom hotspot name can also be applied to the pairing guide on your OEM app.
The default hotspot name is SmartLife-XXXX
. After subscribing to this service, you can customize the hotspot name as SL-your custom hotspot name-XXXX
.
This service, by creating an exclusive hotspot name for your brand, can show your brand identity. Coupled with the OEM app service, it can enhance your brand consistency and influence.
