### 2/5 — Bulbs no longer showing up?

*2020-06-04, version 1.0.7*

Any time I open the app now, individual bulbs do not show up in the menu. I can still turn all lights on and off together, but not individually. I’m worried to uninstall and reinstall that it won’t pair to the bulbs anymore since it can’t seem to find them. Will there be an update to fix this issue?

### 3/5 — Almost there.

*2019-05-19, version 1.0.6*

Would love to use only white light while using the music feature. I want my lamp to look like lightning, but at the moment it only shows various colors.

### 2/5 — DRM PROTECTION

*2019-03-19, version 1.0.6*

All my music has suddenly changed to DRM protected and can no longer be synced with the lights. It’s ruined the entire pound :/

### 3/5 — Decent, but has flaws

*2018-12-12, version 1.0.6*

The biggest setback for me is that there’s no way to toggle different timers on and off, so you have to delete them and recreate them every time.  That’s insanity!

### 3/5 — Need watchOS 5 update

*2018-11-05, version 1.0.6*

asap it's been almost two months now

### 3/5 — Not compatible with WatchOS5

*2018-10-24, version 1.0.6*

I used to love using my watch to control the lights on watchOS 4. But the app is not supported on watchOS 5😪

### 3/5 — Works most of the time

*2018-06-02, version 1.0.6*

I’ve been using this app and the lightbulb that it controls for almost two years now. The app is a bit unpredictable. Sometimes it fails to recognize the lightbulb and I have to unplug the cord it’s connected to and plug it back in. I probably do this once a week. I would also appreciate a dark theme for the app because I mostly use it at night and the white background is a bit blinding. Perhaps a new design overall.  Overall the app gets the job done, but I wouldn’t say it is smooth or 100% reliable. I open the app daily knowing that it may not work and I would much rather know that it is going to work every time.

### 2/5 — Won’t pair with a iPhone 7 Plus

*2018-03-27, version 1.0.6*

Won’t pair with a iPhone 7 Plus

### 3/5 — WARNING IPAD PRO OWNERS

*2018-02-02, version 1.0.6*

The app has not been upgraded for the iPad Pro. Works with other iPads and iPhone 6.

### 3/5 — Latest update added timer bug

*2018-01-27, version 1.0.6*

Timer option only has “modify” and “delete” when there was also “disable/enable” before. Now I cannot enable my timer but have to delete and set it again.

### 2/5 — Apple Watch Complication

*2018-01-16, version 1.0.6*

Would love an Apple Watch complication for quick access to app

### 2/5 — Doing your job again

*2017-03-30, version 1.0.4*

Do you need me to tell you guys the next best step is to make a widget? Or accessible from the swipe up menu

### 1/5 — Lame

*2022-11-21, version 1.0.7*

My bulb was paired for the past 3 years and all the sudden it’s just gone, undiscoverable, and stuck flashing white and red instead of the smooth gradient I had it on before the app went rogue. Don’t even waste your money.

### 1/5 — Flux

*2021-03-30, version 1.0.7*

Really pathetic app.

### 1/5 — Led remote review

*2021-01-22*

Doesn’t work and I listened to everything they said

### 1/5 — No longer works

*2020-04-29, version 1.0.7*

The only way i can get this to work is switching it on/off manually.  It will not show up on my bluetooth at all.  When looking at the FAQ’s it says it only goes up to iPhone 6S and i have an iPhone X now.  Old phone doesn’t work either since updates.

### 1/5 — FIX YOUR GOD DAMNED APP.

*2019-01-28, version 1.0.6*

I paid too much for your free app to not work. Pitiful.

### 1/5 — No instructions

*2018-06-17, version 1.0.6*

Screen is blank upon install. Paper instructions day follow app instructions. ???

### 1/5 — Never works

*2018-02-11, version 1.0.6*

I’ve been able to pair to the bulb once, after waiting for a while for it to actually show up in the app, and after 2 days it unpaired the bulb and hasn’t been discoverable since. The other Flux Apps work very well, but I’m planning on returning and switching to a different brand due to the frustration from trying to simply make this product work at all.

### 1/5 — New update broke it

*2018-01-12, version 1.0.6*

No longer recognizing separate devices in a group. Now I can only control all three bulbs at once and can’t change an individual bulb.

### 1/5 — Please add a widget

*2017-08-06, version 1.0.5*

Please add one as having to open the app and turn on an off lights is very slow, especially because connectivity seems to be relatively slow too

### 1/5 — Brightness changes color to blue

*2016-05-13, version 1.0.1*

Everytime I change the brightness setting it changes the color setting to blue. How do I fix this?

### 5/5 — Great updates since I last used it

*2020-09-08, version 1.0.7*

The color gradient functions are a great touch. The variety of functionality is great. Though the UI of the app is more basic than most, the functionality has been lovely so far. Great work to the developers, from a software engineer.

### 5/5 — Please add a widget!!

*2017-06-10, version 1.0.5*

The app works well and serves its purpose, just wish there was a widget!

### 5/5 — Love Love Love It!!

*2016-12-30, version 1.0.4*

It's funner than you think to change the color of the light bulb at will from anywhere in your house. Dim for reading, bright to find stuff, slowly changing various colors during a party, strobe light for dancing and my personal simplest favorite...you can shut it off, from the comfort of your bed, without getting up! BLISS!!

### 5/5 — Truly great software and technology

*2016-10-26, version 1.0.2*

Everything has been running seamlessly. Very satisfied. Id like to see and option to wake up to different colors in the morning rather than waking up to a regular sunrise light, other than that the app and bulbs are perfect.

### 5/5 — No complaints

*2016-10-16, version 1.0.2*

It's got a lot of good options. 

When you set it to listen it's too chaotic. It would be cooler if it strobed whatever color you'd want once it hears a certain decibel though.

You should add a Halloween theme, like in an old factory and the lights flicker on and off randomly.

### 5/5 — Great!

*2016-09-14, version 1.0.2*

Live the bulbs and controlling them is simple. Would love to get HomeKit integration!

### 5/5 — Nifty bulb - Spotify use for app?

*2016-09-03, version 1.0.2*

So far, this ball this pretty nifty. It works and it moves to the music, and eventually I was able to figure out how to utilize the warm feature to keep a steady yellow light. One improvement would be to be able to link Spotify instead of just Apple Music.

### 5/5 — Love it! Hours of fun and great alarm (blue light awakens)

*2016-02-06, version 1.0.1*

Love it! Hours of fun and great alarm (blue light awakens) functionality!!! Way better than Hue!

### 4/5 — Issue with warm light function

*2017-08-07, version 1.0.5*

The warm light function stopped working for me. Not sure if it's my light or the app.

### 4/5 — Great App

*2017-01-01, version 1.0.4*

Wonderfully stable, intuitive UI. Music feature needs work (music should remain after exiting music function). Possible Spotify and SoundCloud integration?
