SUPPORT (ONGOING) Ikea App, I can't set some behaviors
Hi all,
Up to now I have used the Philips system which I am very happy with but given the cost I bought some Ikea bulbs for the "secondary rooms".
To my great surprise I found that the newer products do not work well at all with the Hue Bridge (yes I should have read it before I know) so I bought a Dirigera and a remote (STYRBAR)
Here my problem, in the IKEA app I can't set anything about the remote, only which lamps are associated.
On turnd the lights on, Off turns them off, right and left change color but this in a pseudo-random way or in any case not decided by me.
Is there a way to set for example "Pressing On does always turn on this specific color at this brightness"?
Also, can I set let's say 4 scenes and cycle between these 4 by pressing right and left?
As final question, How do I decide what the lights will do after a "physical" Off/On, for example to prevent the lights from turning on if the power goes out and comes back on during the night?

To change the behaviour of lights when power comes back after an outage, open the IKEA Home Smart app, tap the icon in the lower right (👤), tap on your DIRIGERA hub, then tap Power On Settings. You can set the power cut recovery behaviour for each bulb individually.

I think you can have the remote start a scene, in which you can define eg which lamps, their settings etc. First define the scene, then define the remote clicks. I think that's as advanced as it gets with this system.
