Step 8: Assign a BLE Gateway ​

Select one or more Shelly Plus or Pro devices to act as BLE gateways. A list of all your compatible devices will appear. These devices will pick up the signal from the sensor when used and act as a bridge between Shelly BLU Motion and the Shelly Smart Control app.

❗ If you don’t see some of your Plus or Pro devices in the list, you may need to manually enable the Bluetooth gateway feature:

  1. Go to each Plus or Pro device in the app.
  2. Tap the 🌐 icon.
  3. Select Bluetooth.
  4. Check both Enable Bluetooth and Enable Bluetooth gateway.

✅ We recommend having at least one BLE gateway in every room.

Select Gateway

Step 9: Handle Missing Gateway Alert ​

If no Plus or Pro devices are detected, a message like the one below will appear:

Missing Gateway

Step 10: Assign to a Room ​

Include the sensor in an existing room, or create a new one, then save the changes. Your device is now successfully added to the app and can be found in its designated room.
