Please bring back flags 🏳️‍🌈🇧🇷 ### 4/5 — Better than expected *2026-06-12, version 4.0.7* Despite having a little trouble connecting with the lights at first, I’m actually pleasantly surprised by how well this app works. You can customize the color of every single bulb on the chain. ### 2/5 — Good app when it works. *2026-05-20, version 4.0.7* It was a good app before it stopped working because It literally won’t let me do anything to my lights.. I can’t change the color. I can’t turn it off unless I unplug it. I literally can’t do anything. They’re stuck the color I had them previously for months ago. ### 2/5 — Update destruction *2026-05-16, version 4.0.7* The app was fine, easy to use, could control the lights from anywhere. But once I updated the app it completely disconnected from the lights and no longer was able to control the lights and pattern. I’m currently using the remote to operate the lights which defeats the purpose of me getting these instead of another brand… please fix ### 1/5 — HELP *2026-05-15, version 4.0.7* Ever since I updated the app I cannot do ANYTHING with my lights!! I can’t turn them on, change brightness, change pattern, literally nothing! And it’s been like this for WEEKS now! ### 1/5 — Broken for 2 months *2026-05-14, version 4.0.7* Update to the app broke all functionality. No resolution for 2 months so looks like my light strips are now useless :/ ### 1/5 — App Not Functional *2026-05-09, version 4.0.7* Latest update broke the app. Please fix bug. ### 1/5 — It doesn’t work anymore *2026-05-09, version 4.0.7* A recent update broke it and now the app doesn’t work anymore. It has been months, and the issue is still not fixed. ### 1/5 — Please Fix This App! *2026-05-07, version 4.0.7* This used to be such a good app before the last 2 updates. Not it doesn’t work and the lights can’t be updated. PLEASE go back to the version that works ### 2/5 — Please fix app *2026-05-02, version 4.0.7* Worked great before I loved how I could customize each light but now I can't do that. The app needs to be fixed, when it does I will change my review. ### 1/5 — 33ft lights *2026-04-24, version 4.0.7* Nothing but problems. One my 2nd attachment to outlet. Less than 6 months old ### 1/5 — Not working right anymore *2026-04-14, version 4.0.7* I’ve had this app and these lights for a couple years now lights still work but now no matter what I do the app and lights aren’t responding to each other so the lights are now permanently one color cause nothing I do works I don’t know what changed but it’s unfortunate cause I’d like to still use the lights if possible however if the app isn’t gonna work anymore I may have to seek a different brand ### 2/5 — App no longer controls my lights *2026-04-13, version 4.0.7* I can no longer control my lights with this app. Was happy before, not any more. In the trash they go! ### 1/5 — App not working *2026-04-11, version 4.0.7* This used to be a nice app for lights. I’ve uninstalled and reinstalled and will not turn on since last update….Please fix this!!! ### 1/5 — FIX THE APP *2026-04-10, version 4.0.7* THE NEWEST UPDATE BROKE THE APP LITERALLY JUST REINSTATE THE PREVIOUS VERSION AS A NEW UPDATE DEVS COME ON ### 1/5 — Broken *2026-04-07, version 4.0.7* Since the update, I haven't been able to connect to the lights at all ### 1/5 — apps not working *2026-04-07, version 4.0.7* help immediately ### 2/5 — Decent app when it works! *2026-04-07, version 4.0.7* UPDATE: They did yet another update and now the app won’t control the lights yet again! Another update after that failed to fix issue. They really need to a actually test these before they put them out! Nuisance! This app controls my very cool little 20 strand of fairy lights. You can use this app to program each and every little light in any color you want and save your own creations. The app isn’t particularly intuitive or easy to use, but once you figure it out, it makes for some very cool light combinations. That’s when it actually works, because sometimes it just doesn’t work to control the lights for weeks on end, and you are back to using the lousy remote. It started working again recently for some reason with no update, so fingers crossed it continues to work! Also the other problem with the lights is that they will turn off again by themselves within an hour of turning them on for no reason with no timer set! That’s annoying! So they are great lights without really any competition, but you have to put up with lots of issues in this app. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — This app is absolutely horrible if I could give a negative stars I would *2026-08-30, version 4.0.7* You turn it to pink and it chose purple the app crashes all the time the lights are horrible.
