Not ideal but functional

There's no built-in interaction with Siri/iOS shortcuts. With a previous lightbulb (different company), I could create a quick shortcut to turn it on without even opening the connected app.

Rhythm mode, like another user said, is only harsh sudden light changes between primary RGB. I don't see any enjoyable use of this feature. The vacation mode is an interesting idea.

Ultimately, my main need is to quickly turn on and off one light quickly no matter where I am in the room. This app can do it... not necessarily as quick as I want.

dumb app

worked for a little over a year and stopped working out of nowhere. when i updated the app it stopped working as well as it did. don’t get this app unless u wanna kys because u wont be able to figure out why it stopped working and i also dont have the remote so now i’m screwed

Functional

Very impressive

This app blows

I can never get this app or the products it supports to connect to wifi. Lame.

Music mode

I love that it reacts to music but I wish there was more options. Something like the dynamic mode but we pick the transitions and colours. I’d love it if it was able to be one colour for quieter parts and another when it gets loud. I’d also like if I can make it directional like a pulse. It’s already great as is but these editions would be really fun.

Thank you for “update later”

The company heard my feedback and updated the pop-up message during the routine updates to include an “update later” option which allows the app to continue working. Many thanks!

Original review:
Forced updates on a smart home app are not cool, ever, but this app in particular forces new system requirements. None of my other smart home services force updates on me. I won’t buy a new phone to keep using my lights. I’ll be switching to a different platform.

Pretty good overall

I got LED lights and they function perfectly, although limited music Reactive LED options!

Easy and simple

The app is easy and simple to use and if you have any issues they have a solution for it and not to mention the constant updates to make your time easier.

Disconnects very often

The remote does not always work and it is very annoying to have to unplug them everytime i wanted to turn them off sometimes im tired and dog wanna get up and it’s very irritating i would not recommend

great app

UI got a lot better since when i downloaded the app. timer feature works a lot better now too. overall i think this app does its job perfectly

Okay

Work but will randomly refuse to connect to my led light but instead my neighbors? (This app actually sucks I hate so much)

Works

All right so I mean the app works and everything it’s not very user-friendly compared to other apps that are out there. My biggest complaint about the app is every time I go to login and it’s at least once a day they log you out and you have to MFA with your email so getting your email confirmation code to login for your LED lights just gets a little annoying it sure my phone auto paste it and stuff, but I shouldn’t have to login every time I open the app. My bank doesn’t even do that

LED lights

Sometimes it won’t let me connect to my LED lights

Reliable.

Honestly not much to say except that this app is pretty reliable… that’s all, have a good day!

Funny

bro “fixed some issues” didnt even say what issues 😭😭 that shi was funny asl ngl, overall the app is easy to use tho so ill give it 5 stars

Not the best

The timer of the lights doesn’t work and I’ve tried many different ways to see how the sleep schedule can work but nothing. I think it’s a major flaw because I don’t need the lights on the whole night. Everything else is okay. I think I would want there to be darker color options though. I think these lights should be looked into more for bugs.

Won’t connect

My phone won’t connect even though I followed all the instructions and it still didn’t work. App sucks.

Missing key quality of life features

App functions meet the minimum I’d expect, but color adjustment can be difficult. When sliding across colors then lights only update when you take off your finger, so it’s much harder to find a specific color. This combined with the lack of being able to adjust the individual RGB values makes getting the color I want difficult at times.

Garbage app

Forced updates on a smart home app are not cool, ever, but this app in particular forces new system requirements. None of my other smart home services force updates on me. I won’t buy a new phone to keep using my lights. I’ll be switching to a different platform.

Use Smart Life App!

This app doesn’t work for the lightbulbs, go to “SmartLife” app with 250k+ ratings and it works great
