There are two buttons on one SwitchBot Remote. Each button can only be paired to control one action of the SwitchBot Curtain/Bot.
Paring the SwitchBot Curtain with Remote
If there is only one SwitchBot Curtain, the SwitchBot Remote can be paired to open and close it. If two SwitchBot Curtains are grouped together, one button can be paired to open them both together and the other be paired to close them together.
Pairing the SwitchBot Bot with Remote
If the Bot is set as pressing mode, only one button can be paired to the pressing action of the Bot. If the Bot is set as switch mode, one button can be paired to turn on the SwitchBot Bot and the other to turn it off.

I just bought the Curtain Combo (Performance Pack) and I fail to see how can I use the remote to either open or close both SwitchBot Curtain devices. Apparently, each button of the remote can be assigned to do only one action (open or close) in one single device. So I either open an close only half of the curtain, or I can only open or close both of them.
You say: "If two SwitchBot Curtains are grouped together, one button can be paired to open them both together and the other be paired to close them together."
How can I group them together?
Thanks!
In my living room I have three sets of paired curtains. I wish to open and close these curtains all at once. This can only be accomplished by creating a scene. What I don't understand is why I can't assign a scene to one of the buttons on the Switchbot Remote. The Remote only seems to work with a single or a grouped (two) curtains.
Can the remote be used with the IFTTT? I need to initiate actions with non-SwitchBot devices. I have a Hub-Mini too, it it matters.
