Haven Lighting's Game Day feature connects to live sports feeds and automatically displays your team's colors on your roofline on game days. Husker red on Saturday, Chiefs red and gold on Sunday — no manual changes needed. Select your teams once, and your house represents all season.
How Game Day works
- Pick your teams. Open the Haven app → Game Day settings → Select your teams from NFL, college football, college basketball, MLB, NHL, and NBA. 2. Set your preferences. Choose when Game Day activates: game day only, day before and game day, or game day through next morning. 3. That's it. The app monitors the sports calendar. When your team plays, your lights switch to team colors automatically. When the game ends (or the next morning), they return to your default scene.
What it looks like
Saturday morning: You wake up. Your house is Husker red. You didn't do anything — the app knew Nebraska plays today and switched overnight.
Sunday afternoon: Chiefs are playing at 3:25 PM. Your roofline switches to red and gold at noon. Your neighbors know what's up.
Monday morning: Back to warm white. Automatic.
Thursday night: Iowa plays. Your house goes black and gold. Automatic. No app opening. No manual changes. Your house just knows.

The neighborhood effect and rivalries
The neighborhood effect: Week 1 — your house lights up in Husker red. A neighbor notices. Week 3 — two more neighbors have looked into smart lighting. Week 6 — your block has an unofficial 'game day row' forming. Game Day is the single feature that generates the most neighbor interest and referrals.
Multiple teams: Select as many teams as you want. Nebraska plays Saturday and Chiefs play Sunday — your house manages both transitions automatically. Rivalry games: When your two selected teams play each other, the app defaults to your primary team. Bowl season / March Madness: Postseason games are covered too.
See the smart lighting app guide for setup instructions and colors and patterns for all available team options.
