How to Turn Off Individual Govee Lights: 1 Minute Guide to Managing Your Govee Smart Lights

Turning off individual Govee lights is straightforward, whether you’re using their smart bulbs, LED strips, or other products. The easiest way is through the Govee Home app, available for both iOS and Android. Open the app, tap on the specific device you want to control, and simply use the power button within its control page to turn it off. If your lights are compatible with voice assistants like Alexa or Google Assistant, you can also say, “Turn off [device name],” and only that selected light will be powered down, while others stay on. Alternatively, some Govee lights have physical buttons or remotes—pressing the power button will only affect that particular light.

As a designer, managing zones and ambiance in your interior is essential. Being able to turn off select lights allows you to create mood, highlight features, or mimic natural daylight patterns in your space. If you’re organizing multi-room lighting or want to visualize different lighting scenarios before implementing them in real life, consider leveraging a home designer tool. This enables you to simulate how individually controlled smart lighting transforms the feel and function of each room before physically setting up your Govee devices.

Tips 1:

If you use groups within the app, remember that turning off a group will power down all lights in that group. Make sure to select the specific device if you want to turn off just one.
