I take most of it back
It still doesnโt give many options or work too well, but at least now it works
Why?
Literally none of the setup options worked. No, you could follow the steps and do what it would ask you to do just fine, it would just randomly break and decide not to recognize your device or network. The sign up was also odd considering the phone number option didnโt work.
Fine But Zero Frills
The most milquetoast of LED control apps. Unfortunately, itโs the only app for SP511E unless youโre equipped to take apart the controller and hardware jockey a flash to a universal standard to get more controls. Ainโt doing that to accomplish the ONE thing I wish to do and that is group these lights to work as one. All other competitors seem to accomplish that except this one.

Maybe itโs greatโฆdonโt know
Considering it never sends the PIN needed to sign up and use the app, Iโll never know if itโs great or not.
Returning..
The app is terrible, not sure why weโre not able to control the lights from our phone without a Wi-Fi network. Having to create an account with the password, email verification, Wi-Fi network, password, etc. into an app just to control lights is silly. Plenty of other app controlled lights just use Bluetooth or local Wi-Fi from the device directly. If you are purchasing this controller to use in an area that does not have Wi-Fi, this is not the controller for you.

Servers offline
Can no longer log in.
Waiting for a code
If you do a app make sure to work correctly before getting it out to yours customers. I wait like a hour and never get the code
Glitchy app
If the app crashes delete the app and reinstall it and if it cannot connect to device, delete it and reinstall it, you cannot use your phone number to create an account. You must use a email. my experience was not user-friendly, but once set up works, just fine. Wish there is updates.
Crashes on Login
This app has not been updated in three years. I was able to download it and set up a username. However, this App immediately crashes when trying to log in.
App no longer operational
The App is no longer operational. Trying to get another app to function for my light strip
It will not send ๐๐ผ๐๐ผ
It will not send code to cell no # nor my email ๐๐ผ๐๐ผ๐๐ผ๐๐ผ๐๐ผ
Does not work
Unable to integrate with Google Home because the login function, password reset, and create new account features do not function.
If you have a new app to support the SP511E with Google Home, please let me know.

Good LED Controller
Having tried and used many different apps to control LED lighting, Fairy Nest has been one of the easiest to set up and it has a very good UI. Having the sound receiving 'mic' on the controller rather than the app assures it reacts to music where people hear and see audio/visuals together. It would be nice if developers could update the app more frequently adding new patterns/scenes, but the ones included work well for many different occasions.

Not compatible with Shortcuts App
Itโs November 2023, how does the app not have Apple Shortcuts Integration?!?
Need help signing up?
Donโt use your phone number to sign up, it wonโt work. Use your email. Then Connect to router manually (not automatically). Make sure to follow instructions! It should be easy. This worked for me!
Requires precise location for Wi-Fi
Another one of apps that collect location data for no reason.
The app requires precise location to be enabled in order to connect the device to Wi-Fi.
Thankfully you can and should turn off the location sharing once Wi-Fi is enabled in the device.

Trash
This app is total trash. No way to rest password because they do NOT text reset code.
Missing share and scene function.
It would be great to include a share function because only one device can be connected to account, meaning if you are on an other mobile phone/tablet you constantly need to enter password again.
A scene function would be great too. Therefore Alexa/Google could call up the scene.
Otherwise the APP is running well with my device can't remember if I ever had an issue over two years compared with other home automation APPs that have moments of issues.

It doesnt work
The lamp was changing colors and beautiful. Tried to set it up, the lamp turned white, button stopped working, so we undownloaded the app to reinstall it. Well now it wont let my phone install the app again and the lamp will not go from any color except white and will only turn off if unplugged. Very disappointing.

Better then expected.
Based on the reviews I figured it was trash, it is not. Itโs actually pretty great for the price. I would love the option to set total led count and define segments. If the developer could manage this, then it could replace the the WLED solution for EOU.
