My Account Screen

To access account settings select the profile icon in the top-right and select My Account. This page is where users can change communication preferences, change the password, and enable two-factor authentication.

Two-factor Authentication (2FA)

Enabling 2FA introduced an additional layer of security. Once enabled, the user will be prompted to enter a 6-digit code, which is sent via email, to successfully log in to the following 2FA supported applications.

Supported 2FA Apps:

Savant App on iOS and Android (version 10.3 and higher)
Savant Power & Light App on iOS and Android
Web-login for Google Home and Alexa voice integration
Savant Home Manager

Unsupported 2FA Legacy Apps:

Savant Lighting
(white logo) Savant App

Enabling 2FA

IMPORTANT! Before beginning, understand that while 2FA is active, users will not be able to login or use any of the unsupported 2FA legacy apps. If there is a need after activation, 2FA can always be disabled.

Select the Disabled toggle button to enable 2FA. This will send a verification email to the email address associated with the account currently signed into SCM.
Copy the 6 digit Verification Code from the email inbox and paste into the SCM pop-up window, then select Verify.
