### 1/5 — Class action lawsuit

*2025-07-14*

Can we get someone to represent all of us? This shouldn’t happen total rip off

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2025-05-04*

at first, the app was usable, but the lights would randomly disappear out of my zones. But now, no matter how much resetting I do all of my fixtures are disappeared and will not show up. this company in this app is complete garbage

### 1/5 — I sell Nora, not anymore though. App is useless

*2024-12-22*

See title.

### 1/5 — Used to be horrible, still is horrible

*2024-06-24*

They say they’ve fixed bugs but everything about this app is still awful. There is so many frustrating unnecessary limitations and there is nothing you can do. They don’t care to fix anything because it’s the only app that controls the lights. 
Update: they made it worse again. Now none of the fixtures show up on the app no matter what I try to reset, and they have disappeared from my zones. All my lights are stuck on whatever setting they are currently at. Literally the worst app I have ever used, never ever work with this company, there’s a reason the majority of the reviews are 1 star.

### 1/5 — App doesn’t work

*2023-05-29*

The app straight up doesn’t work

### 1/5 — Used to be horrible, still is horrible

*2021-12-26, version 1.1.6*

### 1/5 — Waste

*2020-10-13*

The app and lights never worked well. Can’t get all to ever connect. Waste of a ton of money..

### 1/5 — This App and the lights are garbage

*2020-10-08*

After spending quite a bit of money on these lights for my living room I find the app hasn’t been updated in 2 years. Zones won’t set, some lights change others don’t. I even bought the remote thinking that would maybe work. Nope. Now they randomly strobe or turnoff. Steer clear of this company’s schizophrenic lights. I’m extremely unhappy with this app and product. I also never write reviews for anything which emphasizes how bad this product is.

### 1/5 — Glitchy as heck

*2020-03-11*

If you have more than one iPhone trying to control your lights good luck because you’re going to need it.. also if you turn on the lights with your remote it’s a bit glitchy to turn them off with a iphone. I mean it’s only 2020, what did I expect..

### 1/5 — Garbage

*2020-03-06*

App doesn’t work with iPhone so i cannot control not program my lights i just paid s Ton off money for.   Their Helpdesk said the engineers are working on it and they are sick of telling customers there is nothing they can do. He also said it works better with android. Looked On my wife’s phone and a friend it is not on the play store.  Don’t waste your time and $.
