Your Omi device is designed to help you capture thoughts, ask questions, and get answers effortlessly — all while staying hands‑free and connected. This short guide will walk you through setting it up, understanding what the lights mean, and how to talk with Omi.


⚡ Powering On

To turn on your Omi device, simply press it once.

  • If you see a light or feel a small buzz, it’s ready.

  • If nothing happens (no light, no buzz), the battery might be empty. Connect the device to the charger — a light should appear within a few seconds.- If the device still doesn’t respond, check the charging cables, adapter, and ensure the power outlet is functioning. Also, inspect the charging port for debris.

🔧 Troubleshooting Your Device

If your Omi device is not charging or appears non-functional, follow these troubleshooting steps:

Confirm the Initial Setup

  • Press the Device Button: Ensure the device button is pressed to initiate a response.

  • Place the Device on the Charger: Position the device correctly on the charger until the lights turn on, indicating charge.

Escalating the Issue

If the device remains unresponsive after checking cables, power sources, and cleaning the charging port:

  • Contact the Omi support team to explore return or replacement options and further support.


🔋 Understanding the Lights

Your Omi device uses three light colors to show what it’s doing:

  • Red light: The device is turned on but not connected to the Omi AI app.

  • Light red / orange light: The device is charging.

  • Blue light: The device is connected to the Omi AI app and ready.


📱 Connecting to the Omi AI App

  1. Download the Omi AI app from the App Store (iOS) or Play Store (Android).

  2. Open the app and follow the on‑screen instructions to pair your device.

When pairing is successful, the device’s light will turn blue.


🗣 How to Talk with Omi

Once your device is connected:

  • Tap and hold the device, ask any question or share a thought.

  • Release your finger when you’re done speaking.

  • Omi will reply via a notification on your phone and save the response in the chat inside the app. For troubleshooting queries or further assistance, refer to the troubleshooting section above or contact Omi support.
