Great

I love this and it has so many light options! The only thing is that after maybe a month or so of not using the device control, it kicked me out and I have to log back in and it is annoying since I had a really hard time doing that, so now I can only turn it on with the button, and stuck with the last light color I had.

Used to be ok…now unusable

The app had gotten unusable. Won’t connect to the devices, and then random bulbs will turn on at random intervals. Deleted everything…created new home, reinstalled and all the A19 type bulbs continue to have issues. I even bought new ones and they are having the same issue. The app needs a complete overhaul for layout and I’m sure there is a firmware update needed for the A19 bulbs! How about keeping things updated GE!

Not recommended

This is a terrible smart light platform. Poorly designed, functionally inferior, and confusing. The app simply does not work. My network is broad and stable throughout my home. but these devices just don’t work as expected. I cannot recommend.

Light strip

No matter what I do it want connect my light strip to my WiFi was a waste of money don’t buy the light strip buy one with an actual remote

I wish it just worked better

My lights don't always stay connected. I have to reconnect several rooms at least 5 times a year so I've just given up on it. Also routines that turn lights off while leaving others on, never work. If i tap to activate a routine that leaves one light on at 10% and turns 3 others off, it should adjust all lights accordingly. Instead it will change that one light to 10% but the other 3 stay on full brightness. Thought they would have fixed some of these issues over the last few years but nothing has changed. Looking to replace all my bulbs with a more reliable service.
