## Step 1: Set Up the August Home App

1. Download the [August Home App](https://august.com/pages/app) and create an account if you don't have one.
2. In the August Home App, add your August devices.

***

## Step 2: Connect to Seam

Use your login credentials for the August Home App to log in to the [Connect Webview](/core-concepts/connect-webviews) to add your August devices to Seam.

***

## Step 3: Verify the Connection

After connecting, verify that your August devices appear in your Seam workspace and that each device shows an **online** status.

## Troubleshooting

### Devices not appearing after connecting

* Verify that your August devices are added and online in the August Home App.
* If your lock requires the August Connect Wi-Fi Bridge, confirm the bridge is plugged in and connected.

### Lock shows as offline

* Check that the lock has a working Wi-Fi connection, either through built-in Wi-Fi or the August Connect Wi-Fi Bridge.
* Open the August Home App and verify the lock status.
