Can't name your wobie box during setup?
If you get an error when naming the wobie box during setup, follow these steps.
1. Check Wi-Fi
-
🔥 Make sure you're using a 2.4 GHz network.
If that doesn't help, try setting up the wobie box through a phone hotspot or separate 2.4 GHz guest network.
Make sure your phone uses the same network as the wobie box. Both devices need it to connect. - Try setup without Wi-Fi repeaters or mesh networks.

2. Restart the app & devices
- Make sure you have the latest wobie fav app version.
- Turn off the wobie box.
- Completely close wobie fav rather than leaving it running in the background.
- Turn the wobie box on again and wait for the ‘Mhm’ sound, which confirms it has joined Wi-Fi.
- Open wobie fav. The wobie box should appear; you can name it in settings.
3. Try the other connection option
If the wobie box doesn't appear automatically:
- Tap ‘Connect an existing wobie box’ and wait for it to appear.
The box must already be on your Wi-Fi network; the ‘Mhm’ sound confirms it. - No sound? Select ‘Set up a new wobie box’ to connect it.
4. Check your phone
- Restart your phone and allow at least three minutes before switching it back on.
- Check that it has enough free storage.
- If possible, try setup with another device.
