How to connect your KISHA Umbrella to KISHA App for the first time

Step 1: Unpack your KISHA Umbrella and turn on the KISHA tracker

Please make sure that you connect KISHA Umbrella only through the App and not through system settings via Bluetooth.

Please make sure that your Bluetooth is on before launching the app.

Please allow location settings to “Allow using your location while using the app”. After you close the app system will ask you to keep the Bluetooth connection between your KISHA and the app – please switch location settings to “Always allow” – this will ensure tracking even when the KISHA app is closed. 

Step 2: Create your account

Once you create your account, you will be asked to confirm the password and to accept the Privacy policy

Step 3: Select your KISHA model via dropdown menu

Step 4: Wait 30-60 seconds until the App recognizes your KISHA Umbrella

We are working on the new app and tracker to allow multiple simultaneous connections via newer Bluetooth protocol (5.x and above)

Troubleshooting

In case you have trouble connecting your KISHA Umbrella please check one of these items:

• Make sure that the Kisha Beacon is ON

• ⁠Turn off the Kisha App (not Beacon)
• ⁠Restart the Kisha App
• ⁠Find the Kisha umbrella (In-App: Menu, Manage My Umbrellas – Add My Kisha Umbrella) and
