Key App Features

The D-Switch app was built with performance in mind—no lag, no freezing, no connectivity issues. Whether you're setting up a switch panel for truck builds or a light switch panel for a UTV, you get a fast, responsive interface with real-time control over your accessories.

The app mirrors the layout of your D-Switch controller, with all eight customizable buttons clearly labeled and a dedicated “BL” backlight button included. The master reset is also available for quick system resets. A live status bar at the bottom displays system voltage, amp draw, and temperature, so you’re always informed.

Customizing Channels & Buttons

Through the Button and Channel menu, you can group multiple outputs to one button or assign different lighting modes to the same accessory. Want one button to activate your rooftop bar, ditch lights, and bumper pods all at once? It’s easy.

Advanced users can assign flash or strobe patterns to individual outputs and set momentary functionality for accessories like winches or compressors. Customize each button’s appearance with an icon, color, or photo, so you never have to second-guess what you’re activating.

Using Trigger Wire Automation

The app allows for full control of the D-Switch’s four trigger wires and night mode wire. You can easily set up functions like automatically turning on accent lights with your parking lights, strobing your chase lights with hazards, or powering rear-facing lights when you shift into reverse. All of this happens automatically—no buttons, no hassle.

Whether you’re using the auxiliary light switch panel for an off-road rig or a daily driver, the trigger wire options allow you to tailor the experience to your vehicle.

System Settings & Protection

In the Output Channel menu, you can assign max current values to each output, preventing accessory damage and ensuring long-term performance. The app also features a low voltage cutoff setting that will automatically shut the system down to protect your battery during extended use or unexpected draw.

Backlight Customization

Want your switch panel for car or truck to match your cabin aesthetic? The Button Backlight menu lets you pick the color and brightness level of each button. If you’re using the night mode wire, you can configure an auto-dim setting here as well. It’s all about dialing it in the way you want.
