Wont find LIFX products

I’ve tried everything and this app (no matter the device its used on) cant find lifx products on my network even though its supposed to do so automatically and natively

KOTA LiGHTS

I like the display in the lights

Lacks a Screen Saver for AppleTV

This review addresses the shortcomings of the tvOS app version. I stumbled upon this app while browsing on my Apple TV. It appealed to me because I thought the settings for the Scenes included the art as a screen saver/display to complete the ambiance of light and sound. In addition, once you’ve selected a Scene, it will not continue to control your lights or play the audio if you leave the app, as in “Play in the Background.”

Can’t find bridge anymore

Used to be my favorite go-to. But now it won’t connect to Hue anymore, so it’s become useless junk. Honestly a tragedy, you should see if it works for you.

I’m confused

how do I turn the lights off? Thy turn on, although you choose th bulbs to work with the app and then control ALL of them together regardless of ehether you want them on. So if you have 32 lightbulbs, all 32 of them are gonna turn on and change color and strangely they’re gonna stay on for the rest of your life. Right that’s some smart thinking because guess what folks you can’t turn them off you’ve gotta go back and use your manual power switch or a switch that you purchased separately or the app that came with well not this one that’s for sure so somebody needs to go back to kindergarten and figure out how to turn. The light switches on and off and generally get a grip on how it is that people use products. This might’ve been written by somebody who is on the short bus of things.

For the money this is Horrible!! Needs to be more like Omswitch!! Where is my Hometheater light?? Christmas?? Holiday?? Better bright colors?? Trust me make better and people will love you!! For now this is pure

Update app

WHEN ARE YOU MAKING MORE??? Please I LOVE ALL OF THEM. Pleasasseee

A demo so limited by an upsell I hated it before I could even try it.

i'm really not sure why every company seems to be so intent on destroying everything about a good idea just to have some kind of upsell in the application that limits the demo so badly that it is functionally useless.

Stopped working

Expensive lightbulbs. They worked for a while, creating different colors and cool ambience, but then they stopped working and I cannot figure out how to get them hooked back up. I see no icon on the bulbs to re-download information. So I’m giving this only to stars until someone helps me get it hooked back up.

Absolutely stupid app.

All it does is give you sounds. Has no effect on the lights whatsoever.

Great app and colors - No support for HomePods or external audio

Concept is amazing. Colors are great. Lack of support for HomePods or AppleTV to beam audio to multiple rooms make it only a 3 stars.

Would not connect to any hue bridge

And although it said it was connected to my LIFX lights, it didn’t turn on or off or do anything. It was not connected at all even tho it said it was.

Doesn’t work

Didn’t even give an option to add my lights

App funktioniert nur im Vordergrund

… sobald das iPhone gesperrt ist oder die App nicht mehr im Vordergrund ist, funktioniert der Farbwechsel nicht mehr. Sehr schade, da es sonst eine schöne App ist.

Waste of time

This is hardest thing to understand no real information. Took my $7.00 and did nothing

Worthless App for LIFX; Don’t Buy

Just flushed $7 down the toilet buying this to control my LIFX theater room lights.

Pretty great app. I just like it.

A really great idea and lovely execution. Some themes don’t have a sound but most have beautiful artwork and music. Would most likely purchase after an update. It’s a great idea that I’d love to see expanded. Very well done.

EDIT: Bought it and it’s really great. I feel that it helps me enjoy my 37 LIFX down lights and bulbs in a different way. I do recommend this app to people.

Very cool except where is the snap, pop, pizazz,…

I’m very happy for the temperature and style of the affects and quality art with sound effects,. Unless you couldn’t find the switch again or if it is not set up yet … we’ll then your not going to like lightning feature which is just a blue light flashing on off. Like a traffic signal and that’s supposed to be the most fun. I could only get the LIFX features to work. Hue requires a bridge… what a waste of 10 light bulb….

Can not just turn it on and select color with no sound

I wish I could just turn it on with a color wheel and select a color with no sound. The themes are interesting, but I get tired of the up and down color and brightness other apps let me do this.
