Preface: I believe that many people may have this experience: after leaving home, they suddenly remembered that the air conditioner in their home had forgotten to turn off. At this time, they rushed back and were afraid of being late for work. When faced with this choice, most people would choose to go to work, because the air conditioner is on for a day, which is at most a waste of electricity. But what if the electric cooker or induction cooker in their home is not turned off? I'm afraid anyone can't ignore this situation. Even if he is late for work, he will be scolded and punished by his boss. If I told you at this time that you could just pick up your mobile phone and turn off your home appliances on the way, would you be grateful to me? Hehe, in fact, you don't need to thank me, just thank Xiaofang. Today, I brought you a very useful smart housekeeper, Xiaofang Smart Remote Control, who can remotely control household appliances. Please join me to experience the functions of Xiaofang Smart Remote Control!

1、 Unpacking
The packaging box of Xiaofang intelligent remote control is designed very simply. The overall packaging box that presents the cube appearance uses white as the background color. The middle of the top of the box is printed with the appearance picture of the product, which makes the Xiaofang intelligent remote control very intuitive. You can see its beautiful appearance without opening the package. The product trademark of OREBO is printed on the top left corner of the box, and the green logo is very eye-catching. The product name Xiaofang Intelligent Remote Control is printed on the bottom right corner of the top of the box. The overall design of the box is simple and intuitive.
The bottom of the packing box is printed with the product name, main functions, product model, wireless type, infrared frequency, power input standard, executive standard, packing accessories list, manufacturer name, factory address, service hotline, website, product QR code, bar code and other information. The information is very comprehensive, so customers can have a very comprehensive understanding of the product without opening the box.
The product name is printed on both sides of the box, so that users can understand the product name from the side.
The box of Xiaofang intelligent remote control adopts a nested design. You can open the box by holding the bottom and lifting the upper cover of the box. When the box is opened, you can see the square at a glance. The appearance is exactly the same as that printed on the box, and it looks like a small subwoofer.
The inner layer of the upper cover of the packaging box is covered with a layer of black sponge, which can act as a buffer and effectively prevent the impact of external forces from damaging the small side. This alone shows the care of OREBO in product design.
The inner part of the packing box has two layers, the upper layer is a square, and the lower layer is related accessories. This design can prevent the square and accessories from colliding with each other and reduce the chance of damage to the square's appearance.
Xiaofang's instructions are printed very carefully, and the product description and use methods are introduced in great detail.
Xiaofang's USB power connection cable looks very soft, but it is flexible. Xiaofang does not have a charging head. This may be due to the consideration of the capacity of the packaging box and beauty, or the cost. Fortunately, the mobile phone is being upgraded quickly, and everyone has an obsolete mobile phone charger, Xiaofang's 5V-1A input power supply, It's just possible to use these discarded chargers, which can also be regarded as waste utilization.

Xiaofang intelligent remote control adopts the color matching of the upper part and the lower part. The upper part is black, and the lower part is silver. The overall color matching is very scientific! Xiaofang intelligent remote control was designed by the design team of OREBO, which won the German iF Design Award. Its appearance adopts a simple cubic design, full of natural geometric beauty; Only the size of ink bottle is small and exquisite, and does not take up space. Built in 6 super power infrared transmitters with unique infrared scattering structure design, it has a wider transmission angle and coverage than other intelligent remote controls; The top shell is made of special infrared light transmission material to reveal infrared light to the maximum extent; The surface of the small square is treated with frosting, which is comfortable in texture; The metal like base is made of soft plastic to prevent sliding; A delicate indicator light is designed in the middle of the base, which is not dazzling after soft light guiding treatment. No matter it is placed in the TV cabinet, sofa table, desk and bedside table, it does not lose artistic beauty.
Xiaofang's intelligent remote control is very small, and it only takes a little space on the table. In the middle of Xiaofang's front base is a power indicator light, and the lower left corner of the base is printed with the trademark of OREBO.
Xiaofang's back is its Micro USB charging interface, and most smart phone charging cables can be used.
The base surface of Xiaofang intelligent remote control is made of black soft plastic, which can reach the effect of anti-skid and wear-resistant. The download QR code of Zhijia 365APP is in the middle of the bottom, and the product name, model, product input power, executive standard, manufacturer and other information are below.
2、 Experience
The operation method of Xiaofang smart remote control is the same as that of many smart home products. It needs to be used in conjunction with the mobile phone APP, using the mobile phone as its input and display output device to set and manage the product. Xiaofang's smart remote control should be used together with a smart home application developed by OREBO - Zhijia 365. Xiaofang intelligent remote control should be initialized before use, and the adaptation of various electrical remote controls in the home should be completed through Zhijia 365 software. By scanning the two-dimensional code on the product packaging box, instructions, and product base, you can download and install the Zhijia 365 software. After the download and installation is successful, you must first log in to the user before you can use it. Zhijia 365 supports the use of third-party authorized login, WeChat QQ、 Weibo users can directly authorize login, and of course, they can also register an account. When registering, they can choose to use their mobile phone number or email number to register.
There are three main interfaces of Zhijia 365: My Device, Smart Scene and Personal Center. The "My Device" interface is used to add new devices and manage paired devices, the "Smart Scene" interface is used to set various smart scene modes, and the "Personal Center" is used to personalize various individuals. The interface design of Zhijia 365 is very simple and clear. All functions are clear at a glance, and people who use it for the first time can quickly understand it.
The process of adding a device is simple. Scan the QR code on the device, instruction manual or outer package, and according to the software prompts, you can easily bind the Xiaofang intelligent remote control.
After Xiaofang plugged in the power supply for the first time, the power indicator will be red. The brightness of the indicator light is appropriate, and it will not cause too much stimulation to the human eye at night.
When binding Xiaofang intelligent remote control, according to the prompt of Zhijia 365, press and hold Xiaofang's switch for 6 seconds, and the indicator light of Xiaofang starts flashing red, then the next binding step can be carried out.
When adding Xiaofang intelligent remote controller, you will be required to input WIFI password, because many functions of Xiaofang are realized through wireless communication through WIFI.
After Xiaofang binding is completed, the indicator light will turn into a blue light that is always on.
After the Xiaofang intelligent remote control is bound, when binding other electrical remote controls later, you should select "Add Remote Control" on the Xiaofang intelligent remote control interface to adapt the product remote control. The Xiaofang intelligent remote control has a very complete code base. My Hisense TV has been bought for more than four years. Through the "Match Remote Control" function, it is easy to complete the adaptation.
After finding the corresponding brand, the software will automatically give the most commonly used remote control, and try to press at least three keys to experience whether it can be fully adapted. If not, you can select the next button to reselect the remote control.
After the remote adaptation of the device is completed, you can also set and modify the name of the device. If the device is replaced, you can also delete the device.
In the same way, I bound my Gree air conditioner with Xiaofang, and all the buttons match perfectly.
For a small number of appliances that Xiaofang has not adapted, Xiaofang has also provided a solution. You can use the "custom remote control" method to adapt. The adaptation process is very simple. First, set the name of the button to be added. Then, according to the prompt of Zhijia 365, point the remote control of the appliance at Xiaofang's center and press it to complete the matching of the single button, After the remaining keys are adapted according to the above method, the electrical appliance adaptation is completed. This method can solve the problem that the small square code library of some electrical appliances is not adapted, but the remote control interface is not intuitive and easy to use.
In addition to using the "custom remote control" method to solve some of the problems of unsuited appliances, you can also use the "copy remote control" method to solve them. After finding the corresponding electrical category, press the key of Zhijia 365, and press the corresponding near key of the remote control of the corresponding electrical equipment according to the prompt method to complete the matching of individual keys. After the remaining keys are matched according to the above method, the whole matching is completed. If a few keys are missing from the remote control, you can click "..." to add customized keys. After the "copy remote control" method is used for adaptation, the remote control interface will display more intuitively and facilitate key operation.
The smart scene interface of Zhijia 365 can realize the setting of various simulation scenes, allowing users to enjoy the ease and comfort brought by smart home.
Users can personalize their avatar and nickname on the personal center interface of Zhijia 365, bind their mobile phone number, email address, authorized login method, etc., and modify their login password.
Zhijia 365 can share the device to the family with one click, and all applicable remote controls can be shared in real time.
Turn on the wireless switch of the mobile phone, and experience a remote control with the flow. Turn on and off the air conditioner at home remotely.
Zhijia 365 interface has local weather forecast reminders, as well as many warm reminders. There will be different warm reminders in different time periods. Seeing these warm reminders, I feel warm in my heart. It can be seen that OREBO is working hard to manage customers.
3、 Summary
After a period of experience, Xiaofang intelligent remote control impressed me very much. Its appearance is simple and generous. The cube's appearance design is very geometric and aesthetic. The black silver color matching is full of technology. The ultra strong infrared emission device enables electrical appliances in all corners of the room to receive signal commands. The built-in infrared code library can meet most of the electrical equipment on the market, Even some unsupported appliances can be adapted through its learning function, and the remote control function enables users to remotely operate home appliances even if they are far away from home, as long as their mobile phones can connect to the network.
Although I am very satisfied with Xiao Fang's overall performance, I have a few suggestions for reference only:
1. Xiaofang's remote control adopts infrared control method, so it is impossible for Xiaofang to adapt to appliances that use Bluetooth and 2.4G wireless remote control at home. It is recommended that Xiaofang develop a Bluetooth and 2.4G adaptation scheme;
2. Due to the characteristics of infrared signal, Xiaofang can only control the electrical appliances in a single room, and cannot control the electrical appliances of the whole family. It is recommended to develop a remote control host. Wireless communication is used between the host and Xiaofang and mobile phones. One Xiaofang is placed in each room, so that the control of the electrical appliances of the whole family can be realized.
3. Xiaofang remote control uses mobile phone APP to realize remote control. For some commonly used appliances, such as televisions and air conditioners, it is too cumbersome to use mobile phones because they are used too frequently. It is suggested that Xiaofang develop a physical remote control specially adapted to Xiaofang, so that all remote controls at home can be put away.
