help SwitchBot Smart Curtain FAQ
How does the SwitchBot Smart Curtain attach to my existing curtains?
It uses a magnetic clip that clamps onto the curtain rod, and a small motorized carriage pulls the curtain fabric. No tools or permanent modifications are needed, making installation quick and reversible.
Does it work with Alexa and Google Assistant?
Yes, once paired with a SwitchBot Hub, you can ask Alexa or Google Assistant to open, close, or set the curtain to a specific position. Voice commands work in any language the assistants support.
What is the maximum weight the Smart Curtain can handle?
The motor can pull curtains up to 8kg (17.6lb). Heavier drapes may strain the motor, leading to slower movement or possible damage, so check your curtain weight before purchase.
Is a hub required for remote control?
The Smart Curtain can be controlled locally via Bluetooth from the SwitchBot app, but a SwitchBot Hub (Mini) is needed to access the device when youre away from home or to enable Alexa/Google Assistant integration.
How long does the battery last between charges?
The builtin rechargeable lithiumpolymer battery typically lasts 810 months with typical daily use (about 23 openings/closings). Heavier curtains or frequent use may require more frequent charging, which is done via a microUSB cable.
