The lights show up 1/5 times
Nothing works i wait at least 5 mins for my lights to show up every timeemilio2511
Good but less clicks to turn off/on would be appreciated
Please add interactive widgets so we can turn the Elgato key light on and off without needing to open the app! Or an integration with the Shortcuts app with the same ability. This would make it 5 stars for me.Mudassir_
Light-mini issues
The larger Elgato Light works no problem.
Light mini troubles me all the time. Hard to connect to Wi-Fi. Impossible practically. Found one site where one of users shared that the issue could be with WiFi 5g usage. You have to remove 5g out, and live 2.5g only. After performing that change my mini worked. Still with some issues to connect to WiFi. Sad that it is so difficult to connect. Update Firmware please.Show lessIssues with light mini - WiFi
Connection Issues
Unfortunately, the app does not function well or reliably with the light. It constantly loses connection and when it does work, there’s a huge delay when turning it on and off.
I keep hoping a firmware or app update will resolve this issue. If this were fixed, the light would be a great value, but like this, it has proved to be the weak link in my setup. It often stands in the way of creativity when I’m ready to roll.
Please fix.Show lessMegalomaniac1973
It works well!
I used to forget to turn off the key light when I turn off my computer, so I’m glad elgato made this accessible through the app! If your internet router resets, you may have to reset the key light as well. Seems to be an IP thing. A bit of a pain, but I love being able to control from my phone, so app stays on my home page! Thanks ElgatoShow lessChee ✨
Plug and play!
Love the straightforward nature of the light. Easy to set up and finding it ideal for enhancing the appearance of my recordings.
Nice solid feel to stand and light itself.DellboyPrime
Key lights continue to lose connectivity
When I first bought my two key lights, they would connect very quickly. Nothing in my environment has changed except for the Elgato updates. Now I have to turn the key light lights on and then back to neutral to get control center on my iPhone and on my Mac mini to connect to them. This makes me hesitant to acquire the stream deck as I don’t think it is going to maintain continuous conductivity.Show lessXvirtualvicX
No Siri Shortcuts or integrations
This product is not designed to be used by anything outside of elgatos eco system. No Siri Shortcuts, no HomeKit, no simple way to control it.Chestermoney

Idk what’s happened to the app but since the last update it doesn’t detect my lights in the control center I’ve had to install the pc version just to have any control over my lightsAngryBeaner
Why do I need an app?
Just to do basic functions. I bought two key light air and out of the box it says I need more software. I understand Corsair now owns Elgato but this would’ve been a great opportunity to pair with iCue software as another option or at the least give me some options behind the lights. Dim, bright, and blindingly bright.
I’m happy I can use these as they are - but I shouldn’t need to use wi-fi or an app, and when I do try and connect, the light turns off and then I get an error, which prevents me from using the app.
Seems like I’m not the only user having the same issues.
I just purchased these lights as of this writing. So far not happy with Elgato’s decision, here.
In the mean time - I’m going to browse Reddit and see if I can find a solution.Show lessdrzero3
