How to schedule a custom sleep routine for your Roku Smart Home lights

When you want your own personal sunrise or sunset, schedule a custom sleep routine that slowly brightens your Roku® Smart Home lights in the morning and gradually dims them at night. This article provides more details about the feature and teaches you how to use sleep routines.

What is a sleep routine?


A sleep routine automatically brightens or darkens your lights incrementally based on your preferences. Select a wake up or bedtime routine, and choose the duration, starting time, and the days you want it to repeat.

  • Wake up: Simulates a sunrise to help you wake up easier.
  • Bedtime: Mimics a sunset to get you to sleep faster.

Which smart home devices support sleep routines?


Sleep routines are supported on all Roku Smart Home lights. You can create a custom routine for each of your smart lights individually or add them to a group to brighten and dim all the lights in the room at once. A lighting group can consist of any number of the lights listed below.

For more help, learn how you can set up a lighting device group. Be aware that if you decide to delete a lighting group, any sleep routines you created will also be deleted, and you will need to recreate them on the individual lights.

How to create a sleep routine


To create a sleep routine, launch the Roku Smart Home mobile app and complete the appropriate steps for each light or lighting group.
  • Tap HomeHome screen icon in Roku Smart Home mobile app from the navigation bar
  • Select an individual light or lighting group
