User reviews

Testing Only

This App was designed for firmware updates and testing new features before they are launched on the official Astera App. Keep that in mind.

New app doesn’t work most of the time

“Can’t connect to X amount of lights.”
Light shows “disconnected” but will highlight or function when call upon.
Doesn’t pair most of the lights when in blue mode.

This new version of the app doesn’t work on multiple devices (iOS or Android) and on different fixtures and Asteraboxes. We spent far too long getting these connected at a show.
