Great but wouldn’t let me pick an alarm

I used this app lots until I lots the lamp, found it again and discovering all of the things. I look at the alarm and it says you can pick a song! I was very happy but every time I would click it, it would just freeze and not do anything, in summery the pick a song for the alarm was not working other than that I great app would recommed

Stabil, in Details verbesserungsfähig

Die App läuft auch unter iOS 17 stabil - auf iPhone und Watch - und macht was sie soll. Vorteil: Avea kommt ohne die Spyware-Funktionen der Hue aus, braucht keine Internetverbindung (läuft per Bluetooth) und ist deutlich preiswerter. Somit für mich letztlich die bessere Wahl, daher habe ich nach wie vor mehrere Leuchten im Einsatz, auch wenn es sie leider nicht mehr neu gibt.

☹️

Hatte lange Zeit immer nur eine Birne im Schlafzimmer - funktionierte eigentlich sehr gut und ich konnte sie problemlos über die App steuern! Habe mir jetzt zwei Birnen dazu gekauft für zwei weitere Zimmer! Leider kommt die App jetzt überhaupt nicht mehr klar und wenn ich in einem Zimmer die Lampe anschalte, geht das Licht, manchmal in allen, manchmal nur in einem weiteren Raum, an! Selbst wenn ich den Haken nur an einem Zimmer setzte, bringt das teilweise gar nich und die Birnen sind somit leider nicht wirklich brauchbar für mich - sehr schade wenn man den doch ziemlich hohen Preis beachtet! Es wäre schön wenn die App mal optimiert wird… das letzte Update ist ja dann doch ein Weilchen her…!

No Iwatch support?

the box says that the Bluetooth light support Apple Watch, but I cannot find any Iwatch app that I can use to shut the light with my watch… any suggestions?
Btw, I have this light on my nightstand since 3 years and still work like a charm.
Very good product!!

Good bulb

This is a good bulb compared to others , bit more expensive than them BUT the app needs a serious update. Bluetooth functionality seems to loose connection regularly and switch on and off, this I find strange when all my other Bluetooth devices work fine barr this one. Really don’t think the bulb is at fault as this connection loss is happening randomly and not constantly. Lost a star for this issue.
