Lights won’t turn off

Wish I could get help with this issue but can’t find anything on it other than that great lights just wish I could control the lights from my phone won’t turn off at all

Needs scene customization

Spent 100$+ on this and it’s great yes but the scene application limits it’s uses GREATLY. Being someone who is electronically inclined I do not understand why they’d make the scenes limited. It’s not like the circuit boards have these scenes preselected and just switches between them: this is just inefficient and more costly electronically than having a programmable microcontroller which I hope is installed on these things so that updates will allow customization of the scenes
