Attaching Luxi™ to Your Mobile Device

Luxi™

is designed to clip directly onto the top edge of your device,

with the white diffusion dome fitting directly over the front-facing
camera.

Several models of

Luxi™

are available; you’ll want to ensure that

you have selected the model appropriate for your device.

Luxi™

For All

works with nearly all iOS and Android devices, while the

older models are suited only for use with iPhones 5/5s or 4/4; they
are labeled as such anywhere they are sold.
