Terrible App

App is terrible. The user interface could not be any more complicated if they tried. One light will not connect to phone. The app finds 2 but only adds one. Completely useless.

Please add support for Alexa

Alexa integration would elevate this app big time!

Only one light connects

Ive followed all instructions, deleted and re downloaded app, manually reset, config time for my second lamp is unknown- not doing anything. Waste of money buying lamps

Works very well for me

Not sure why the rating is so low. It does everything I need and works well. I had doubts given prior experience with Chinese apps, but it’s not a problem at all. Initial add takes 1-2 minutes per light. I bought 6 lights.

The light remembers the last setting when I exit the app, unplug it and plug it back in. Awesome. I will turn on/off the lights via relays, so it’s perfect for me.

Love Lights and Hate App

The app is terrible and the timings are even worse. Almost impossible to use the timings. You have to be up close to the lights for the app to work them. Even then it stalls out.

App Lost My Lights

I bought 4 of these lights. When I first turn in the light and connect the device in the app I have to wait an agonizingly long time, about 10-15 minutes just to connect. Each one! After they were all connected I started using them, changed the color and intensity for my needs and settled for the one time pain. But then I tried to change the color again only to find that 3 of the 4 lights no longer responded to any of the controls. I tried everything I could find. Luckily I’m still within the return window so back they go. My advice is, test daily because these are spotty at best.

Timing feature doesn’t work

I have tried the Timing feature to set a daily one/off time but I can’t get it to work.

It seems the lights may be using a different time zone than the app.

App Timing

The brightness of the lights is excellent.
It would be good to have more flexibility with changing the scenes etc, instead of them being preset.
The only problem I have is the timer.
I live in the UK & do not understand why I have to set the timer using the time in China (UK+7 hours) for the lights to come on at the right time. Surely the timer should be working off the time on my mobile?
Currently, I have the timer set to switch the lights on at 4am, so that the lights turn on at 9pm & then they are set to turn off at 8am (1am Uk time)!!

Stuck adding light, help!

We're trying to add the IP66 and it comes up as 2 devices but only 1 will get added and the other gets stuck "in configuration..." for minutes and minutes before we give up. Any help?

Edit: Thank you dev for the response. We ended up having to unplug and reply each light and aren't sure what ended up working but it took an hour or so but we finally got each light registered in the app.

Once you get the lights registered and understand how their network works, they're great. The lights acting as a network is super cool!

But it was still hard to get them registered and hopefully the developers fix that (maybe they had).

I would be happy to give this app 5 stars once it's a seamless process.

Lights great, app terrible

Someone please sort this app, it’s awful.
They don’t link together properly, the app doesn’t pick them up all the time. So I have to control separately. Lights are 10/10

Wrong time zone set

This app comes set to China’s time zone (-13 EST) and it make it useless the timer/schedule in USA. No way to adjust this in the app

App falls short of promise

The app adds the lights no problem, and I can select a mode, and switch them on and off on bluetooth without any trouble. Setting up the automatic timer seems simple enough- but it just does not work!

UI (User Interface is limited)

I had the misfortune of one of my older flood lights shorting out and no longer working so I was sent the panels that work alongside this app. I had to switch apps of course, no big deal, but I was at least hoping that the accessibility and convenience was still there and overall I am a bit disappointed. I think the ability to change colors on app should be more responsive. At times my light will go to one singular color even tho I’m selecting another on the dial. I’m sure a light app isn’t supposed to be the most “developed” app, but to some extent there’s gotta be a way to make it more in favor of the user. I think with minor tweaks and maybe making the layout of the app a bit more tidy it’ll be way better overall.

Works but….

We can’t tell if it is on or off by looking at the App.
In this day and age, it’s works as any other app should but why can’t you add an ON symbol so we can it is ON and one to
show us when it is OFF ?

Horrible!

This app is absolutely unusable and should not exist!

App Doesn’t Connect to Lights

Sometimes app doesn’t connect to lights via Bluetooth to allow changing of light colors. IOS 6 iPhone 13 Pro

Timing not working

The app is acceptable but the timing function is not working and then you need to turn on or off on a daily basis :(

Problem if you have more than 2 lights

I have 3 lights but if I add all 3 to the app one of them won’t work it may come on but can’t turn it off or I can’t control it or switch it off, I really like the lights but the app needs work

Stuck adding light, help!

Good app, could be great.

App gives you plenty of control over color but lacks any control for the white color temperature, only 5k. Would be great to see 2500-5000k temperature slider or options.
