Will not buy again!!!
I bought 2 at Home Depot for a great price (get what you pay for I guess) and the first one set up and connected great, although the app has randomly changed some of my settings???? The 2nd bulb the app will not even recognized!!!! Reading the other reviews people are saying that you can only control 1 bulb per device...than why does the app have groups and show it controlling multiple rooms and bulbs??? I’d rather spend more $ and get a product that actually works!!!! I’m returning the second bulb today, I’ll just have to use the 1st one as I installed it a few weeks prior to trying the second and do not have the packaging anymore!!! Don’t waste you hard earned cash folks!!!!Kjoburn
Annoying more than convenient
My bulbs worked maybe 70% of the time when they worked. Now they either constantly blink bc the mesh can’t find a connection, or I forgo the app. Another issue I had was using the app to turn the light off, but then it would automatically turn back on so I had to use the light switch. I’ve had my bulbs less than a year. The amount of annoyance they cause is greater than convenience. Its like a torture tactic at this point, my living room light blinks every 20 seconds but the mesh will not connect.
I hoped it would work fine and the negative reviewers just weren’t tech savvy. I am tech savvy and this is just junk.Dara.12345
Groups Functionality Broken
For turning off individual lightbulbs this works just fine. But the groups functionality is broken. Whenever I turn off lights as groups they randomly turn back on later. And also when I turn lights on and off as groups the schedule functionality also breaks. Forcing me to reset each lightbulb in that group. If you are going t use this app. Only use the individual light bulb menu option and not groups.ForeverIDy
Best investment for waking up on time!
I use the scheduled timer for my light bulb along with a regular alarm clock. The app works flawlessly! I love it and its awesome I get to dim and brighten my rooms lighting, adjusting the lighting to the time of Day really helps. At night I keep the lights low and it’s easier to fall asleep. In the morning when I’m trying to wake up for School, the light slowly turns on .; making the transition from sleeping to waking much smoother.Dhshsuxyhhg
?
I bought these light bulbs (2) several months ago and have been very happy with them. My neighbors bedroom is near my garage and thus I didn’t want to leave lights burning when I was not home. I stop at the end of the street, turn them on with my phone, drive in and turn them off. Why do I need to update the app when I don’t currently have a problem and according to the comments, I might have if I update?Tootie70
Horrible bait and switch
I bought this lightbulb and started using the application three months ago. It was OK. Not great. But it did allow me to set a timer for the light, and turn it off and on from my phone as long as I was within Bluetooth range. Today I open the app to turn on the light and discovered that I’m required to give them my email address and/or my phone number in order to use the app and thus make the light at all useful. That’s horrible. I gave you my money, you give me a light with additional features. Now I have to give you my email address and/or my phone number? You’re not getting it.Pmanzella
Works as advertised
I was going to buy an expensive wakeup light until I saw this thing. For a basic smart light it works pretty great, this isn’t on the level of a hue or wink smart home set up but for my dorm as a wake up light it works well, probably going to buy one or two more so it brightens up the room a little more. Wish there was a bulb with a higher lumen outputFinalruner
Interface needs to be updated!
I’m giving 2 stars to this app because it’s become annoying the fact that the on off button on the iPhone screen moves over when trying to dim my light making the motion of my finger useless. And you have to try 2 or 3 times so the dimmer on your screen catches your finger motion and does what’s suppose to do.
I mean.. WHEN in the world have you seen a light switch or wall dimmer moving over like it’s hanging on a string and you need the other hand to hold it?R0gu3M3rc2017
Mesh Issues
I like the functionality but when opening the app, 8 times out of 10, the app can not find mesh. There is no instructions what to do next. I have to get up and turn on and off light switch for the mesh to be found again and start connectivity again.
Plus, the app only works when you are close by. You can not turn on or off lights once you leave the location.
Two weeks later....this is getting old. Every time that I need to turn on the light or off, the app won't mesh. Frustrating!Arod-Nica
Worked for a few weeks
Bought a bulb and it worked so I went to buy four more for my bedroom and they all worked well for a week or so then they started flickering randomly when I opened the app and then they all stopped connecting all together. After months they still won't connect when I try to use them. Feit has useless customer service that gives generic answers. They work fine as regular bulbs I guess even though they flicker for like the first half second they turn on. Just ended up spending more on Phillips Hue and being extremely happy with that. Don't buy the cheaper crappier option. Just go with Hue and not waste your money completely like I did.POhenryP4
