### 1/5 — Garbage

*2026-06-22, version 1.17.2*

Garbage lights. They are extremely hard to pair using ios device. Go for other well known competitors.

### 1/5 — Very bad product

*2026-04-20, version 1.17.2*

Have to sync the same bulbs at least twice a month. Very infuriating.

### 1/5 — SOOO DIFFICULT TO SETUP

*2026-03-24, version 1.17.2*

I’m so disappointed with this system. We have 3 flood lights which work intermittently. And after waiting 40+ minutes on hold, left my number to get a callback. And when I did, I got a message saying to call, which I did and they said they were closed at 3:24 PM. Grrrrr!

### 1/5 — Worst app ever requires reconnect to the lights every a few days

*2026-02-23, version 1.17.2*

Worst app ever requires reconnect to the lights every a few days. The app enters an endless circle of finding lights, found lights and no devices added, then finding lights, found….

### 1/5 — Why do I need to register an account to operate a lightbulb?

*2025-12-28, version 1.17.2*

WHY DO I NEED TO REGISTER AN ACCOUNT TO OPERATE  A LIGHTBULB?

### 1/5 — Trash

*2025-11-10, version 1.17.2*

Give me my money back these can lights are trash they continually disconnect after they are paired to the app. They double blink every time. It’s absolutely maddening to spend the time pairing them. The app is not user-friendly. Save your money you go with a different company and brand altogether this is

### 1/5 — Junk

*2024-08-28, version 1.17.2*

I have one halo light switch. I’m standing right beside it and this app can’t find it. Absolutely useless.

### 1/5 — Halo App

*2024-06-06, version 1.17.2*

I have 3 controllers in wall (dimmers) they continue to lose connectivity to the groups they are assigned
to.  Adding the controller again to fix the problem is overly complicated and intermittently successful. You should be able to add devices and make groups simply by drag and drop. The app needs to be refined.  The lights themselves are solid…
The software/app is poorly executed.

### 3/5 — App needs an update

*2023-12-15, version 1.17.2*

Lately the app doesn’t turn lights on or off. And it shows some lights on when they are not. We installed a set upstairs and it was working well. Recently we have added more lights downstairs and it seems to be overwhelming on the app..

### 1/5 — App crash!

*2023-12-04, version 1.17.2*

App stop working at iPhone 13! How this possible
