I can only choose between 3 colors and can’t apply blue,red,pink,purple or orange it needs fixing asap

### 1/5 — Need an update

*2025-10-26, version 2.4.1*

App worked fine for a couple days after setting up now it doesn’t even connect so it’s stuck on one color….. I don’t even know where the remotes at from moving houses so would be nice to have an update fixing this issues since it seems to be a repeated occurrence for others in the reviews :/

### 4/5 — Ommm

*2025-10-13, version 2.4.1*

The app needs to be expanded to include music leds.

### 2/5 — Doesn't work after disconnected

### 1/5 — Works at first

*2025-09-03, version 2.4.1*

App worked fine at first but literally two days in and the lights stop receiving any instructions from the app or the remote.

### 1/5 — The app no longer works

*2025-09-01, version 2.4.1*

I got these lights a while back and the app worked perfectly fine. I recently lost my remote to them so I tried the app and it no longer will connect to my lights at all. I’ve tried everything to get them to connect, uninstalling the app, resetting my phone, unplugging the lights multiple times and nothing works. This app is in need of an update and i need this app to work otherwise i will have to take them down, throw them in the trash, and invest in lights that actually have an app that actually works. This is an inconvenience and and annoyance.

I refreshed the tab once and since then it keeps telling me that Bluetooth isn’t on so i need to turn it on to connect. I kept turning it on and off to connect to my lights but they’re just stuck in one color now because i just can’t connect. Even before that, once you remove the device from the app and you try to add it back by scanning, it doesn’t work. Bruh im begging to pls pls pls fix this issue dawg 😭

### 5/5 — Phenomenal

*2026-05-20, version 2.4.1*

I’ve got nothing bad to say the variety of options it has between colors is more than you could ask for. I’ve had my lights for more than 2 years now and no issues since. Still works like the first day I bought  it. However I do wish they added some new features like a slower mode for the rainbow effect and a group option for multiple users. But other than definitely worth it!

### 5/5 — nice

*2026-02-22, version 2.4.1*

*2025-11-02, version 2.4.1*

i’ve had this app for maybe 9 months and it’s still working perfectly, i was shocked to see the ratings are so low

### 5/5 — Great!

*2025-06-30, version 2.4.1*

I’ve had my life for 3+ years now and I ordered them off shein. This app has helped so much when I couldn’t find my remote thanks, lol.

### 5/5 — good

*2025-05-07, version 2.4.1*

Lights work well, bright, can adjust brightness, and can make custom colors for it. Music feature needs adjusted tho.

### 5/5 — This app is the best!

*2025-05-06, version 2.4.1*

I’ve had LED lights for a while now and ive never used my remote.. This app has more colour options than the remote, you can make your on colour mixes to display on the lights and the creators also made some that are free!

### 5/5 — HELP

*2025-04-23, version 2.4.1*

The app connected and worked fine at first, but while troubleshooting with my lights, I deleted the device from the app to see if that was why they weren’t working (it wasn’t), and now I can’t reconnect them? Did i permanently delete the device from the app??? Help!

### 5/5 — Good

*2025-04-18, version 2.4.1*
