### 3/5 — We need an Update

*2021-08-06, version 1.6.3*

When are we getting and update make it something more adjustable to control and make more colors cuz it says there million lights all i se its just the colors of the rainbow so please make and update

### 2/5 — Shows music

*2020-04-02, version 1.6.3*

Lamp play music ??? if so update needed not playing on my 11 pro max

### 2/5 — Very basic, amateur hour app

*2019-07-20, version 1.6.3*

This is cheap junk. But at least the basic functionality works: you can choose a color for your light. Beyond that it’s sad: there’s no security, so if your neighbor has this app, they can change your light color. There’s no way to remember a color preset. And it’s certainly not integrated with HomeKit or any automation system. No matter what color you choose, when you make it brighter, it turns white. The default white is slightly “off”, not quite the right 2700K or 4000K color, but you can choose a better one manually. The “music” feature requires you to manually scroll, with no search or alphabetical index, so if you have more than about 100 songs it’s be useless. Although I couldn’t get the music feature to play so I suppose it’s useless anyway.

### 2/5 — Unreliable.

*2019-06-09, version 1.6.3*

“No LED is connected” is the most common response when I try to turn on my light. Very disappointed.

### 2/5 — Update

*2019-06-05, version 1.6.3*

Hi I use this app for 4 lights but when I try to choose the music setting nothing happens can you please try to fix this feature as would love to try and set my lights to music

### 2/5 — Please Update!!

*2019-05-13, version 1.6.3*

The light is amazing but this app is just ruining the whole experience; please just fix the bugs at least so I can take full advantage of this super cool lamp!

### 1/5 — ColorfulLight jk Wrangler

*2019-05-10, version 1.6.3*

App stop working. Open app doesn’t do nothing. Re- installed app. Nothings so halo colt lights on for 2 days.

### 2/5 — Needs ability to save presets

*2019-04-24, version 1.6.3*

I agree with the other review.  Not being able to save your own presets is ridiculous and awful. Please update this app to allow custom presets!!!

### 1/5 — Not connecting

*2019-04-19, version 1.6.3*

Just got the V18 RGB lights and it doesn’t connect with the app, I tried everything and it still doesn’t connect, there is no intructions or vids on how it works, I don’t recommend it, stay way from this app and product.

### 2/5 — Wow

*2019-04-11, version 1.6.3*

I had been trying for hours to get the music to work and sooo I can only use purchased music what about the hundreds I have downloaded from Apple Music?!

### 3/5 — It’s a start

*2019-04-08, version 1.6.3*

That lamp is cool but this app needs a lot of work! Would be amazing if I could sync it with Spotify, also when you try to make custom light Changes you can’t select the colours using the wheel and that’s annoying, also you can only choose three colours what is that about?

### 1/5 — Options

*2019-04-03, version 1.6.3*

Should be more cool options for preset customization does off dull colors don’t cut the cheese

### 3/5 — Savage

*2019-04-02, version 1.6.3*

Does everyone know how I turn the lights off?

### 1/5 — Zero stars no support waste of money should be considered theft

*2019-03-19, version 1.6.3*

This app is absolutely terrible there is no support it hasn’t worked on multiple platforms this app is absolutely ridiculous I’m so angry I spent the money I don’t know what to do yes I’m going to send it back but what a supreme waste of Time !!!! no customer service should be illegal!!!

### 1/5 — Needs update badly

*2020-11-16, version 1.6.3*

Unfortunate that lighting apps are so bad. This one is worse.

### 1/5 — UGH

*2020-06-20, version 1.6.3*

Stupid

### 1/5 — This app doesn’t work for me

*2020-04-10, version 1.6.3*

I purchased the Kuler Sky Led Torchiere color changing light and downloaded the app as directed in the instructions. The app doesn’t give me any instructions on how to pair the lamp to the app and everything I click on doesn't do anything! WTH am I supposed to do!?!

### 1/5 — Don't waste your time...

*2020-03-31, version 1.6.3*

This app is one of the worst ones I have ever used. I have to continuously rescan the QR code because it loses connectivity. I wanted this so I could get brighter light to paint with but when it loses the connectivity it sometimes takes three or four times to get it to hook back up. And if it loses it, the default light is very dim and until the connectivity is done again that is where the light stays. Horrible app and I wish I had never wasted the money on the light in the first place.

### 1/5 — Terrible app

*2019-12-09, version 1.6.3*

Y’all need to update this thing. Read the comments. Same issues from 2 years ago. I just bought this lamp and had to download this app. Unfortunately your substandard company is the only company with a compatible app for this lamp. Whoever is in charge of this app needs to be fired because y’all can’t implement simple changes.

### 1/5 — Fail

*2019-09-17, version 1.6.3*

I purchased these headlights about a year ago and have had nothing but trouble with them. The drivers side headlight will not stay connected so it will come unplugged and go out. The app was ok for a while but the colors have changed in the effects portion of the app. The colors are dark, drab and down right ugly. I don’t understand why they changed. If I could give a rating of NO STARS I would. I’m disappointed I have to give a rating of one star because the headlights and the app are not worth it.

### 1/5 — Error

*2019-08-18, version 1.6.3*

Headlights worked for 3 hours then stopped matching colors for some reason. Only match on preset green or red. 

Going to return these ASAP

### 1/5 — Needs a bug fix ASAP

*2019-07-04, version 1.6.3*

The color palate in “light effects” has been messed up for a while. Please fix it.

### 1/5 — Needs update

*2019-06-08, version 1.6.3*

Cants create a new pattern with normal colors only does darker/dim versions of the color

### 1/5 — New

*2019-06-03, version 1.6.3*

Can you please fix this app. My halos stopped working all of a sudden deleted the app and re-downloaded and now you can’t get any information on the app at all to even work the halo lights please get this fixed

### 5/5 — Idk

*2020-12-29, version 1.6.3*

It’s a good app but the brighter you put the light, it starts to make this weird sound

### 5/5 — This is amazing

*2020-05-28, version 1.6.3*

I love this lamp, I have know for two year it has work amazing, but I have lost the charger so I can use it . I recommend this lamp to anyone it light up my whole room. This lamp is the best.

### 5/5 — Fire!

*2020-04-23, version 1.6.3*

These are great, with a touch of a finger you can change color, vibes to music, has different actions, just what I wanted, and I hooked them up myself... little common sense  goes along way!

### 5/5 — Works great!

*2019-04-08, version 1.6.3*

Great app

### 5/5 — Works good

*2017-09-24, version 1.4.7*

Love It thank you!

### 4/5 — I really like this a lot

*2020-09-10, version 1.6.3*

There could easily be a 2 next to “ColorfulLight” in the App Store

I think I messed up one of the settings for gradient and deleted/reinstalled the app, and it works again;
Could open to the bright setting b/c turning on the light switch to a dim room isn’t exactly ideal;
I want to link this to the radio as a music function option.

Quite satisfied. 😁

### 4/5 — Looooove this light!

*2018-11-10, version 1.6.3*

I love this light!! The only thing I’ve had trouble with is syncing the light with my music.

### 4/5 — Good but

*2018-01-12, version 1.4.8*

The music feature is the only thing that doesnt work

### 4/5 — Music Player does not work

*2017-08-05*

The music feature for my LEDs does not work. Every other feature works just fine.  The voice feature works and changes the color but not the music. Hope they get this fixed quickly would like to see how this feature works.

### 3/5 — It’s okay….

*2024-09-07, version 1.6.3*

I can’t find a way for it to sync with my music and and the voice thing is kinda useless….At least the colors show well👍
