Reliability
Often disconnect from wifi
No schedule
I dont like that you cannot schedule the lights
Shortcut support is entirely broken
A recent app update completely broke shortcuts support for Control Center, with shortcuts stopping and displaying a “Control Center quit unexpectedly” notification.
I rely heavily on Shortcuts for automation with my Elgato lights, so I opened a support request. Their initial advice was that the problem was with my phone or with Shortcuts, and not a problem with the app. I had to really push the issue for it to be taken seriously, but they have not been able to offer me a solution.
I asked for an escalation and have not heard back after a few months.
Shortcuts is kind of the ugly duckling of the Apple ecosystem. Nobody really wants to support it; I get it. But Shortcuts was the only thing that let me automate my Elgato lights with everything else, and it really took a load off for a while there.
Unfortunately if they’re not taking their support tickets that seriously, I’m going to have to look at non-Elgato products in the future.

LIGHT
Fantastic for close up light. Awesome.
Gave up
I’ve given up on this app locating my key lights. I’ve gone back to manually turning them on and off. Nice try, I guess.
If you need favorites do not buy
I bought the light because it has been touted as one of the better ones- which it is! However the app for controlling the setting for light (brightness and warmth) is not good. I can’t create a favorite setting for the light. some video applications require different lighting and I have to manually slide the indicator to adjust the light. Having at least three favorite buttons would make my work life less hectic.
Poor app design on whoever came up with the app functions. I should be able to create favorites from the application.

Latest Update Broke Everything
Prior to the last update I was able to use the quick action button on my phone to trigger a shortcut to turn on and off my lights. Since the update shortcuts report that the app quit unexpectedly. Prior to this it was an incredible experience using the app but now it’s useless.
Awesome Light
I work from home and am constantly in and out of zoom meetings and this light has been an absolute game changer. It’s helped my video look a lot more professional, which is important because I’m usually in front of a lot of c-suite executives. I appreciate how easy it is to set up in the fact that everything can be done via Bluetooth on my phone or through my Stream Deck. I would highly recommend this to friends and family.

latest version broke shortcuts
doing anything with apple shortcuts with this app's actions now results in: app quit unexpectedly
Latest build is broken
After a recent update, the widget feature just shows a blank white box instead of a quick-activation button. I tried support but the link in the App Store goes to a PAGE NOT FOUND. Not great on product support, guys.
Widget removed
Why would you remove the Home Screen widgets with the 1.9 release??
ORRIBILE
Funziona male malissimo non trova le luci , poi de li trova , trova solo una sto a lotta ogni giorno con questa app.
No HomeKit & Siri
I would like homekit / Siri support
Works well with dual band tp link router

IoT vlan failure
This app is unusable on a network segmented by vlans. I keep my IoT devices on a separate vlan away from my personal devices. This app requires them to all be on the same vlan to work. No option to add devices by IP.
Horrible
Sometimes imthe lights show up, sometimes they don't. When they do its because I'm turning on and turning off the wifi and opening and closing the app til it decides to show it. It's annoying.
Only occasionally works
The lights take forever to appear if they appear at all. Sometimes, only one of them does and if you switch to another app and back after enough time, it loses the lights even if they still appear. This means that the buttons don’t work.

Pairing is so hard
Rarely works to pair key lights breaks all the time
Ideales Stream Equipment oder sogar Bürozubehör?
Ich nutze es am Schreibtisch: zum Arbeiten, Videocalls/Teammeetings oder sogar gegen Abend, wenn ich bei gedimmten Licht letzte Mails checke. Die Feineinstellung von kalt zu warm in einem dezenten Schein ist ein Bonus. Absolut empfehlenswert
Terrible
Can’t even find the devices - tried everything
