Works OK — but, disappointed there is no single view of ALL the cameras. The app requires user to select one camera at a time. Hoping they can fix this in future releases. ### 2/5 — App Won’t Open After Update. *2026-07-30, version 2.23.1* I updated the app as it appears it needed to be and now the app won’t open. Now it’s stuck on the lowest setting and i can’t change it. please fix ### 4/5 — Doesn’t transfer rooms to smart apps at setup *2026-07-26, version 2.23.1* I’ve submitted feedback. Who knows if they will ever see it or not. But in the app prior to connecting it to the Google Home app, which is what my intentions are for. I created the rooms for each of the seven bulbs that I added to this app. Upon connecting and linking it with the Google Home app, it doesn’t create rooms in the rooms themselves do not transfer over a separate entities with bulbs within them instead it creates my home lights category and dumps all of them inside of it. This is a massive oversight in the technical department who designed the app configuration and connecting bridge information that needs to be tended to or the voice functionality of controlling individual rooms becomes nonexistent. ### 2/5 — Issues *2026-07-09, version 2.23.0* App does not open!!!!! I cant control my lights anymore!!! ### 2/5 — App does not load *2026-07-08, version 2.23.0* App no longer loads. Just stays frozen. I’ve restarted phone and still nothing. Doesn’t go past the main screen. ### 4/5 — Great Devices, Poor Troubleshoot *2026-06-05, version 2.22.0* I really enjoy AiDot light bulbs, but I can here to leave a review on a troubleshooting issue that wasted hours of my time. I could not establish a Wi-Fi connection between the smart bulb and the router not because of a hardware/software issue— turns out it was because I used special characters in the Wi-Fi PASSWORD— after I saw this issue’s solution posted on a forum, I changed the password to letters and numbers only, and boom— instantly connected. I wish there was an error message that would told me this 4 hours ago. Other than that— love the bulbs. Very user friendly, look really great. ### 2/5 — Sunrise/Sunset times do not update. *2026-06-04, version 2.22.0* Overall a good app but it does not keep up with changing sunrise/sunset times. It uses the correct time when you create/save a schedule for the first time, but then stays at that time forever, or until you save again. Very annoying. Please fix. ### 4/5 — One teensy little thing… *2026-06-04, version 2.22.0* Love it, great for my lights. But do you think you could add a manual hex value thing for the color options? I have the colors I need memorized by hex code but I can’t quite find them in the wheel. So for someone like me, I’d greatly appreciate it. ### 3/5 — Stupid update *2026-05-27, version 2.21.3* This is exactly why I don’t like to update my apps. Before I decided to update the app my app was working perfectly fine, connected to my device by Bluetooth and never had a problem with my wifi connection since I obtained a light that ran through this app. its been about 8 or so months me using it and I was having a pleasurable time with having this convenience. Updated app and all that was lost. Can connect to the light through my bluetooth though my phone and the light are in the same room less that five feet away….. This is frustrating. Please fix it. ### 1/5 — App sucks now *2026-05-20, version 2.21.3* We used this for months with no problems and last week the app stopped working. Today I saw an update so I thought for sure it would be fixed. No. And after reading new reviews it’s not just me. I don’t want to delete the app because people are having trouble logging back in now too. Fix your app before I throw out your bulbs for something else. ### 3/5 — light bulb *2026-05-13, version 2.21.1* not working ### 1/5 — App stopped working *2026-05-13, version 2.21.1* This app was great for months I even used it earlier today now my lights aren’t loading on the screen. I deleted the app and re-downloaded it hoping it would fix the problem and now I can’t even log in ### 1/5 — stopped working *2026-05-13, version 2.21.1* everything stopped working and the help center won’t even load and everything is a dead end to try to get support ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — iPad App Version *2026-09-06, version 2.25.1* Apparently they are both checking the app after they change code. Missing pull down menu that the iPhone version has. Also cannot do Daily Check In on iPad. Do better ! ### 1/5 — Doesn’t load *2026-08-31, version 2.25.1* Doesn’t load at all now since the update ### 1/5 — Hey so it’s not working *2026-08-22, version 2.24.2* Idk what yall did but I can no longer use the app so therefore I can’t use my lamps. Please fix? ### 1/5 — app no longer loads *2026-08-11, version 2.24.1* the app does not load, it used to be great and now it does not work… i cannot change the color or setting of my lights now. develop please fix asap. ### 1/5 — App doesn’t work *2026-08-07, version 2.24.1* The app doesn’t work Will be returning devices ### 1/5 — Latest update is awful *2026-08-04, version 2.24.1* The latest app update makes unasked for changes that reduce utility. First, the app has difficulty even logging in. If you’re able to get in, you can no longer turn off/on all lights with one click - you have to go room by room. Very stupid update. ### 1/5 — Updated app now it no longer works *2026-08-01, version 2.24.0* The app had a update and it updated this morning now i cant load it at all and if it does make it past the aidot loading screen it goes directly to a white screen saying try again then doesnt do anything and its not due to my service because all my other apps and features work fine on my phone its just this app ### 1/5 — please please fix your app *2026-06-16, version 2.22.2* the app constantly states “failed to connect”, and sometimes freezes and all i see is a white screen. i have an iphone 17 pro max, 26.5.1, everything is updated and have the most recent version of the app yet I can’t use it to control my Lighting, which makes this brand worse than other lights I’ve used in the past ### 1/5 — Less than one star *2026-05-22, version 2.21.3* idk if it’s been since the update or what but i haven’t been able to control my lights or even log in. the app won’t even load despite me restarting my phone, being connected to wifi and redownloading the app three times. please fix this. like be so fr. so many people are having this issue, it should’ve been fixed by now. ### 1/5 — Terrible App *2026-05-20, version 2.21.3* This brand is actually the worst I have a humidifier from them and the humidifier is controlled through the app but the app makes it impossible to use your devices. It constantly says updating devices but never finishes updating and locks you out of the device. I hope someone from there corporate office gives refunds to there buyers and fires the entire team that worked on the app. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Terrible app *2026-07-11, version 2.23.0* All of a sudden the app would not load no matter what ### 5/5 — Highly recommended *2026-07-03, version 2.23.0* ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great app! It’s very easy to use and makes controlling all of my devices simple and reliable. There are lots of useful features and the app keeps getting better with new updates. My favorite part is the Community section, where you can share your creations, get inspired by other users, take part in fun events, and even win prizes. It makes the app feel much more engaging than just a device controller. ### 5/5 — Excellent app and products *2026-07-02, version 2.23.0* I’ve been using this app with many of their products for 2 years and I’m very pleased with the interface. They not only provide powerful controls for smart lighting, but they also have a fully functioning social platform in the same app. You can post photos and videos tagged with events or holiday themes, and you can share your custom lighting DIY settings along with a video of the effect, so others can download and use it with their own lights. Plus you can see which users are posting more content and follow them. It’s a whole community built around smart lighting. What a “bright” idea!!!! ### 5/5 — Outstanding Choice *2026-07-02, version 2.23.0* If you’re tired of waiting and waiting for your software like Apple or Google Home to connect to your device so you can turn it on or off, THIS software is the fix for your frustration. Far and away faster responses to anything attached to it than Apple Home or other related solutions. The reason is that connection to your devices is managed at your WiFi network, not off somewhere in the cloud, which makes access to all tour devices dependent upon some web service, web connection, lag, etc. My Matter enabled plugs turn on and off immediately instead of waiting for the “updating” delay that shows up every single time with Apple Home. Delete Apple Home and reconnect all your Matter, MFFT, or numerous other components to AiDot. The software is able to connect to so many IoT devices. Highly recommended. ### 5/5 — Great product *2026-05-24, version 2.21.3* The set up is easy and bulbs work great ### 5/5 — Problem *2026-05-16, version 2.21.1* Hey it was working perfectly fine but now if I try to sign in it will just say it’s incorrect but now I can’t turn my lights on so my lights are just forever off and I have a bird who needs light so how do I fix this problem? ### 5/5 — Luv it! *2026-04-18, version 2.20.0* Getting better all the time🤗 I have Alexa, matter devices, samsung, apple, smartlife, etc. and Thank you Aidot for being a star! ⭐️ only this app was able to integrate with most of them without extra hub devices (like Blink does! 😝) ❤ the economy pricing! A year of no hassles nor headaches! Great job 👏 ### 5/5 — You have to get the LED lights!!!! *2026-04-14, version 2.20.0* I love the LED lights because even though it only goes halfway through my whole room it still lights up the room and makes it good for sleepovers and movie nights ### 5/5 — LIGHTS ! (A19) *2026-03-30, version 2.18.3* I’m having a blast creating moods for background as life happens in the house. ### 5/5 — Good *2026-03-23, version 2.18.3* Good --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
