### 1/5 — App not working

*2019-12-01, version 2.35*

I open the app and it goes blank. Nothing is there!

### 1/5 — bruh

*2019-11-22, version 2.35*

fix your app. i didn’t buy my 200 something dollar ceiling fan just so your app won’t work

### 1/5 — Fix it

*2019-07-14, version 2.23*

Crashes every time I try to change the colors or Bluetooth...

### 1/5 — The app is not working anymore

*2019-06-16, version 2.23*

The app used to work before I done the update and now I can not change my colors or do anything with the light I am very disappointed

### 1/5 — The app is crashing

*2019-06-14, version 2.23*

App keeps crashing and I cant change colors at all please help

### 1/5 — Crashes every time I pick a color

*2019-03-23, version 2.23*

It crashes every time I pick a color on my app.

### 1/5 — App is not working as it used to

*2019-03-07, version 2.23*

I have used the app and its hardware for a couple of years already and at first they both worked great, but now the app keeps crashing and I cant use the colors at all. When it doesn't crash it freezes and doesn't do anything. Can you please roll back to the known good working version of it. It is a pain in the rear to have to relaunch the app 100 times before being able to actually use it.

### 3/5 — Only sound

*2019-02-23, version 2.23*

Only sound function works. Lamp will not connect, had to connect thru my apple settings. Android app works perfectly throughout however

### 4/5 — ILight

*2018-10-17, version 2.23*

Great app and easy to use. Please please please make an Apple Watch app I go to bed and I always have my watch with me. If I could control it with the Bluetooth on my watch that would be great

### 1/5 — Ads destroy app

*2018-09-24, version 2.22*

Ads (mostly in Japanese - I think) are now freezing the app at start. You have to shut dow the app entirely and restart. You then have a very good chance of ads freezing the app again. I liked my lightbulb/speaker. But now it’s more of an aggravation than a convince.

### 2/5 — Activation function won’t work

*2018-08-15, version 2.21*

Please fix the activation function.

### 3/5 — Room for improvement

*2018-08-07, version 2.21*

Please make a desktop version so i can control from my laptop. Thanks

### 1/5 — ??

*2018-05-24, version 2.11*

It was working properly , and the suddenly stopped working ! Doesn’t want to connect with my phone !

### 3/5 — Helpful but could be improved

*2018-04-18, version 2.11*

The app has lots of interesting functionalities, but guess two main things could be improved:
1. Missing interface with AlexaSkills/Google Home
2. It makes a considerably loud noise every time it paires, if the sound level was selectable (from 0 to 100%) it would be great!

### 3/5 — Bluetooth Connection

*2018-04-07, version 2.10*

It’s working fine but when I open the app it needs connection when it is already connected to the Bluetooth the audio is working fine but I can’t use it with the App.

### 1/5 — Why

*2018-02-20, version 2.10*

I bought this bluetooth lightbulb and expected at least a decent app for it. You shouldn’t have to wait for ads to use the app for your light, makes no sense to me. I hope this company goes bankrupt due to this cheap, non-reliable app/light. If you’re gonna get a Bluetooth light bulb, make sure it doesn’t need this app to function.

### 1/5 — No place to ask for help...!

*2018-02-17, version 2.10*

Since the first day, the app show “go to” and there is no control with the light

### 1/5 — App not working

*2023-11-07, version 2.37*

App keeps shutting off. Does this app no longer work?

### 1/5 — So many problems..

*2022-01-14, version 2.37*

I recently got the light that comes along with this app, and the app is garbage. It doesn’t respond to the app’s bluetooth- i’m already connected but it wont let me do anything until it’s connected, which i ALREADY AM! then, as soon as i attempt to play music, it plays for a second or two before completely crashing.

### 1/5 — Terrible app

*2021-09-10, version 2.37*

I installed a new ceiling fan that required this app to change the lights color 
Now app doesn’t work at all
When I cut the light on it only blinks 
Now I can’t even connect to Bluetooth

### 1/5 — Downloaded iLight Pro from same developer

*2021-03-16, version 2.37*

Please Downloaded iLight Pro from same developer it works better with no ads or crash

### 1/5 — Huge waste of good money!  Cannot get music to play more than a few tty

*2020-09-16, version 2.37*

If I could give it less than 1 star I would. Instructions and other important information is almost nonexistent or impossible to decipher.. Music only plays for a brief second or less than crashes the whole app. Link to support appears to be some sort of pornography site. I’m going to try to get a refund on this expensive piece of junk.

### 1/5 — Crashing

*2020-06-21, version 2.37*

App continues to crash. Have yet to see an update. This is ridiculous

### 1/5 — App Crashes Constantly

*2020-04-21, version 2.36*

App crashes within a minute of being opened. Usually more like 15 seconds. This makes it next to impossible to change the light settings and actually impossible to play music, since that window takes longer to load. The bulb is no longer a speaker because of this crappy app. I’ll be reviewing the product as an expensive piece of garbage until this gets fixed.

### 1/5 — Not working as it used to be

*2020-04-04, version 2.36*

Please fix ur app guys

### 1/5 — Bug

*2020-03-27, version 2.36*

Fix it!! I can’t change the color instead of making new product fix it

### 1/5 — Wow

*2020-03-11, version 2.36*

### 5/5 — This app is 😍😍

*2021-06-03, version 2.37*

I love this app because it can change the lights and because i can play music with it on th blue tooth

### 5/5 — 科技

*2018-06-14, version 2.21*

我是一个科技控，这种可以控制灯光的app，还是让人眼前一亮的，这样大大的方便了生活，可以节省很多时间。

### 5/5 — Sad to say

*2018-02-16, version 2.10*

This app no longer syncs with my iLight speaker/light so I can no longer control the color changing options at all. I’m stuck with the basic cold white light. Hope to see this corrected with the next update (at which point this will be a 5* app)

UPDATE: seems like the bug has been fixed.

### 5/5 — Got to love it.

*2017-04-14, version 1.94*

It's a must have for new parents or parents with toddlers. One lightbulb that earns it keep! It does all that it's claims to do and more.

### 5/5 — Custom Lighting

*2016-07-16, version 1.48*

I just received an ilight speaker for review and downloaded this app to use with my light. 

It really is super awesome to be able to change the light to whatever color you want by using the app color wheel. I also love that you can adjust the light: Pulse, Rhythm, candle, or strobe. 

One of the coolest things though is definitely using music with the app and turning the lucky to go with the beat of the music. 

To change it back to just a normal white light, there's a button on the center of the color wheel that you can tap. 

This app really makes your light fully customizable!

### 5/5 — Love these bulbs

*2016-05-14, version 1.47*

This is an amazing item and great gift only problem ive had is short life of light at about probably 80 to 100 hours it seems. May just be me and my unfortunate house.

### 5/5 — So Impressed, I'm writing my first ever review!

*2015-12-04, version 1.32*

I bought an I-light smart light bulb on eBay, after stumbling upon its existence accidentally, during my search for a Bluetooth bathroom speaker. The bulb in my bathroom is bayonet, not screw in, so I  bought a simple £1.50 adaptor in addition to paying £15 for the product itself, including shipping, which I considered very reasonable-so long as the ilight bulb could live up to my expectation. When it arrived, I was overwhelmed by the quality of  its design and immediately tried it out with the adaptor and my expectations were far exceeded!! The Bluetooth connected immediately and the LED colour options blew my mind! Most impressive though was the sound quality and power of the speaker, which is one of the best I've ever heard in this price range, plus it never runs out of battery since it's plugged into the mains through the light! The app is easy to use and fun to play with, but would be even better with a few additions, such as allowing more than one Bluetooth connection at a time, a radio tuner and call answering function. Overall, I couldn't be more pleased with this purchase and have already become the envy of all my friends! Thank you, Developers, for inventing this genius product!!

### 5/5 — Love it!!

*2015-10-10, version 1.29*

I love how it works with my iPhone.  I love all the features can't wait to show them all to friends!! Update fixed the iOS 9 issue thanks.  I will keep my rating a 5 however I still can't seem to get the timing light to work.  Sigh

### 5/5 — Fixed! Thanks!

*2015-10-04, version 1.29*

Thanks for fixing the crashing problem!

### 4/5 — Keep updating

*2019-10-11, version 2.32*

Love app and speaker that goes with it, consider recalibrating the color switcher.
