Frequently Asked Questions:
How to connect your clock to the internet?
Two options are available.
The Idem clock can be connected to the Internet either by:
1. Connecting the clock to a private or home Wi-Fi network (no subscription required)*.
2. Opting for a monthly ($9/month) or annual ($99/year - save $10) subscription to the mobile connection offered by Idem (The SIM card is already included and installed).
You can choose to opt-in or cancel your subscription at any time. After receiving the clock, you will be prompted to select your connectivity preference from the Idem companion app.
* The Idem clock does not function when connected to a public Wi-Fi network. Public Wi-Fi networks are commonly found in hotels and are identifiable by the requirement for entering a password or room number in a separate window from the device's Wi-Fi settings.

In this case, we recommend subscribing to the mobile connectivity service offered by Idem.
