Access & Overview

After completing the initial setup, you can manage and monitor your Smart Mirror from any computer or laptop connected to the same network.

1. Accessing the Dashboard​

💡 Tip: Due to the mirror’s limited onboard performance, we hardly recommend managing configurations from a computer rather than directly on the device.

  1. Find the IP address displayed on your mirror after Wi-Fi setup. (You may already noted it earlier or you can also look it up in your Wi-Fi Network Settings)
  2. On your computer, open a browser and enter: http://(IP-Adress):8081
  3. Log in using the default password: changeme (if you have not already changed it)

Once logged in, you’ll see the main dashboard interface.

2. Dashboard Overview​

The dashboard provides quick access to key system information and controls.

Device Information​

Displays:

  • IP Address
  • Storage usage
  • Wi-Fi network name
  • Screen and LED brightness
  • System version

Brightness Controls​

Adjust:

  • Screen Brightness — controls the display intensity.
  • LED Brightness — controls the light frame around the mirror.
    Use the sliders to set values between 0–7.

System Logs​

The System Logs panel shows connection and system events (e.g., Wi-Fi connections, hostname updates).
These logs are mostly informational and can usually be ignored unless troubleshooting.
