When adding new devices to Cozify via the Cozify app, due to certain device specific requirements it's adviced to be always connected to your home's WiFi with your phone during the process (same WiFi which your Cozify hub (ZEN / ION / HUB) is connected to).

When adding WiFi / IP devices such as Foscam or Sonos, make sure you've connected them to the same WiFi as your Cozify hub. 

In general, activate the new device's pairing mode according to the device's manual, and then proceed adding/pairing the device to your Cozify hub as follows:
