How to Integrate the Tirii App with Your E-Rickshaw BMS: A Step-by-Step Guide
Learn how to connect the Tirii app to your e-rickshaw's smart BMS for real-time monitoring, battery health analytics, and improved range management.
Getting Started with Tirii App Integration
Integrating the Tirii app with your e-rickshaw's Battery Management System (BMS) unlocks powerful features like real-time SOC tracking, fault alerts, and predictive maintenance. Follow this guide to set up your system correctly.
Step 1: Verify BMS Compatibility
Ensure your e-rickshaw uses a smart BMS with Bluetooth or 4G connectivity. Most modern 48V Li-ion or LiFePO4 packs support this. Check the manufacturer's documentation for compatibility with the Tirii app.
Step 2: Download and Install the App
Search for 'Tirii' on the Google Play Store or Apple App Store. Install the app and create an account using your email or phone number. Grant necessary permissions for Bluetooth and location.
Step 3: Pair the BMS with the App
Turn on your e-rickshaw's battery pack. Open the Tirii app and select 'Add Device'. The app will scan for nearby BMS units. Choose your device from the list and confirm pairing. A successful connection will show battery data on the dashboard.
Step 4: Configure Alerts and Settings
Set thresholds for low battery, high temperature, and overvoltage alerts. Enable push notifications to receive real-time warnings. Customize the display units (e.g., percentage, voltage) as per your preference.
Step 5: Monitor and Analyze
Use the app's dashboard to view SOC, SOH, and cycle count. The analytics section provides historical data to identify usage patterns. For fleet operators, the multi-vehicle view helps manage all e-rickshaws from one interface.
With these steps, you can maximize battery lifespan and reduce downtime. Regular monitoring via Tirii ensures your e-rickshaw operates efficiently in Indian conditions.
Don't Skip This: Secure Your BMS Bluetooth
Here's a step most setup guides leave out, and it's important. After pairing, set a Bluetooth password or PIN on your BMS if the option exists. In mid-2026, viral "prank" videos showed how unsecured battery Bluetooth let strangers shut down e-rickshaws remotely — the apps involved were later removed from app stores on government orders. An open BMS connection is an unlocked door to your vehicle. Our homepage guide explains exactly what happened and lists the protection steps every driver should follow.
Troubleshooting Common Pairing Problems
App can't find the battery: make sure Bluetooth is on, you're within a few metres, and no other phone is already connected to the BMS. Restart both the app and your phone's Bluetooth if needed.
Readings look wrong: double-check that you selected the right battery chemistry (Li-ion vs LiFePO4) in the app settings — wrong profiles produce wrong state-of-charge estimates.
Connection keeps dropping: this is often low phone battery (aggressive power saving kills background Bluetooth) or interference. Disable battery optimization for the app and try again.
