Setting up your WiFi
WiFi enables access to cloud features, syncing, and the latest software updates. You can connect during onboarding or anytime later in settings.
Why WiFi matters
Connecting to WiFi during onboarding
Connectivity is first introduced during the onboarding step once you have selected your preferred language.
Note: You can skip WiFi during this setup, but we recommend connecting to a known network to benefit from immediate updates and features.
Your device displays nearby networks. Select one and tap Connect. If needed, enter the password using the keyboard. You can reveal your entry with the eye icon or clear it using the "x".
Note: Captive networks (those requiring a browser login) are not supported. If selected, you'll be prompted to choose a different network.
If your connection drops during setup, you can retry, switch networks, or choose to continue without WiFi.
Managing WiFi in settings
After onboarding, manage your connection in Settings > Connectivity.
- Toggle WiFi on using the switch on the right
- Available networks will appear below
- Connected networks are labeled Connected
- Tap a secured network to enter the password, then press Connect
To connect to a hidden network:
- Tap "Add network"
- Enter the SSID and password
- Tap "ADD NETWORK" to save
