The setup process will eat up a lot of power! Be prepared by charging your Delphin fully before moving on.

After turning on your Delphin for the first time, you'll be prompted to enter some basic info which your Delphin will need in order to function properly.
After turning on your Delphin for the first time, you'll be prompted to enter some basic info which your Delphin will need in order to function properly.
1. After starting the First Time Setup, select your timezone. Choosing an incorrect timezone can cause certain apps on the Delphin to misbehave.
2. Choose "Setup WiFi on Delphin" and select your home WiFi network.
3. Enter your WiFi password.
We know that typing on such a small screen can be tricky. In a later step you will be shown a simple solution to make entering your remaining App passwords easier.
After connecting to WiFi, you'll be prompted to select a few of our favorite apps to install. It is vital that you select the Amazon AppStore in addition to any other apps you'd like to have.
1. Check the box next to the Amazon AppStore
2. Check the boxes next to any other app you'd like to install during setup
3. Press "Install Selected Apps" and wait. Your Delphin will now download and install your selected apps.
4. Be patient. If you chose several apps, this can take some time. Your Delphin is downloading a lot of data. Feel free to set your Delphin near your WiFi router and come back to it after it has had time to complete its installation.
Remember, you don't need to install every app you want right now.
You can always (A) open the Help app and select "Install Apps" to choose from the same list offered during First Time Setup or (B) open the Amazon AppStore and search for your desired apps.
Note: some popular apps are not available on the Amazon AppStore, this is why we have provided direct downloads during setup and within the Help app.
This step is optional but it will make logging in to your apps much much easier. Let's use our very own Remote Connect App to control our Delphin with our Smartphone.
Remote connect will enable you to log into your apps using your iPhone or Android smartphone. This is extremely useful when you are getting your Delphin ready for the pool for the first time.
After you have completed setup, swipe up from the bottom of your Delphin to view your installed applications. Scroll down until you see Delphin Remote then open it. The Remote Connect App will display a QR code on your Delphin's screen. Download and open Remote Connect on your Android or iPhone, then scan the code when prompted to connect to your Delphin.
Watch the video above for quick and detailed instructions on remote connect's basic features.
Before you head to the pool, you will need to get your apps ready for offline use. Remember, WiFi doesn't work in the water.
Turn on your sound and watch this short video to learn how the process is done in Spotify.
1. Choose the app you’d like to listen to. We will use Spotify for this example.
2. Open Spotify and sign in to your account.
3. Choose a playlist from your library and open it.
4. Download the playlist by pressing the Playlist Settings Icon "⋮" and selecting "Download".
5. Once your playlist is downloaded, test it out by playing it with your WiFi off. If your music plays while your WiFi is off, you're all set!
( Tip: you can turn your WiFi off by enabling airplane mode. To do this select Settings > Network > Airplane Mode. )
Every app will have different steps for taking your media offline. Please check out our App Guides below for more detailed information on some of the most popular Delphin apps.
Congrats! You've got your Delphin setup in the bag. Read below for a few helpful tips to keep your Delphin running strong.
1. After each swim, unplug the headphones and rinse the Delphin and its headphone jack under some fresh water. This will help get any chlorine or salt off.
2. Only charge the Delphin as needed.
3. Do not charge when wet. (This is the most common cause of battery related issues.)
