I’ve always loved it with no issues until I got a new iPhone 17 pro max. The app and tree are not connecting well and I’m having to reboot my phone to reset the app/tree. Please update. I don’t want to buy a different tree. ### 3/5 — Update app *2025-03-04, version 1.1.7* Can y’all update the app to let users pick colors and patterns. It’s an ok product but the app is to limited to what you can do. ### 2/5 — Twinkle light app *2024-12-25, version 1.1.7* I have had this tree for years it is great please update the app ### 2/5 — Update!!! *2024-12-13, version 1.1.7* Please please update or at least keep the app active!! I have had my tree forever and I absolutely love it. Currently my lights are on fade and without the app they cannot be changed. Thank you for putting out a tree that has lasted this long!! ### 1/5 — Great Tree… *2024-12-12, version 1.1.7* But the developers for this tree were obviously a one shot only manufacturing team. No updates and the Bluetooth connectivity is nonexistent after the first couple of years. Disappointing. ### 1/5 — Needs updated *2024-12-09, version 1.1.7* Crashes on open. ### 3/5 — Operates by only one device *2024-12-07, version 1.1.7* Only one device can operate the app at a time . This is cumbersome, when someone else wants to change colors/music it they can’t through the app on their device , they have to operate it thru whoever is connected first . You can download the app, but only one person can operate it at a time ### 1/5 — App crashes everytime *2024-12-05, version 1.1.7* We love our tree but can’t control it anymore bc the app is horrible. There needs to be a manual override or update the app! ### 1/5 — Please update *2024-12-04, version 1.1.7* We have had this tree for almost 10 years and I refuse to trash a good tree but the lack of control for the lights is super sad :( HELP! ### 3/5 — Please please please fix *2024-12-03, version 1.1.7* This is my favorite tree of all time! Please fix the app as it is crashing the moment you open it! Seriously this tree brings me so much joy but will be much less without the ability to control the lights etc ### 1/5 — No support *2024-12-01, version 1.1.7* Tree is great App not so much ### 3/5 — Old app that can crash *2024-12-01, version 1.1.7* This app has not been updated in many years. This year when I got the tree out it just kept crashing every time I tried to open it. I thought I was out of luck, but I found it still works if I turned off wifi in control center. (IOS 18.1) ### 1/5 — Fix the app *2024-12-01, version 1.1.7* Will not open, can't do anything. ### 1/5 — App no longer works *2024-11-29, version 1.1.7* App worked in 2023 but no longer works in 2024. Deleted and reinstalled but app does not open. ### 1/5 — Crashes *2024-11-28, version 1.1.7* Can’t even get the app to open. It crashes as soon as I try to open it. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — App stinks! *2025-12-18, version 1.1.7* App won’t even open!! ### 1/5 — Not working anymore *2025-12-14, version 1.1.7* App doesn’t launch on ios26 and support website doesn’t exist. ### 1/5 — PLEASE UPDATE!!! *2025-12-08, version 1.1.7* We love this tree, but I can’t open the app to change the lights! ### 1/5 — Won’t work anymore *2025-12-05, version 1.1.7* I have to delete app and reload every time I want to use it and it doesn’t always work when I do that. Really disappointed. Use to work great! ### 1/5 — App crashes *2025-11-22, version 1.1.7* The application started crashing as my phones got newer! Now i have no control of the lights because the app does not launch on my iphone 16 ### 1/5 — Won’t work. Please update. *2025-11-02, version 1.1.7* November 2025 - please UPDATE your app. It won’t open on iPhone 16. 😩 ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2025-02-10, version 1.1.7* Click on the app and it just closes again ### 1/5 — Broken on IOS 14 *2024-12-24, version 1.1.7* App no longer works. Needs to be updated to work on IOS 14. Still broken 4 years later. App hasn’t been updated in 9 years, but worked until security updates in iOS 14. Wrote to the developer. Doubt I will hear anything back or the app patched ### 1/5 — Update the app!!! *2024-12-23, version 1.1.7* App keeps crashing. Fix it! ### 1/5 — App is crashing!!! *2024-12-13, version 1.1.7* Would love to change my lights to solid or the wave effect. The small white lights have already died and can’t seem to fix that issue either. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Worst decision They ever made *2025-11-30, version 1.1.7* WHY IN THE LIVING WORLD DID THEY DISCONTINUE ALL OF THIER PRODUCTS😔 IT MAKES NO SINCE, my family and I have had this tree for 11 years, and its probably my favorite part of Christmas, but we can’t get another one because it’s discontinued…why, this was the best tree ever made and they had to ruin it… cmon guys😔😭🙏 ### 5/5 — TURN OFF WIFI TO USE *2025-11-28, version 1.1.7* Was having trouble with this, app just kept crashing. Read another review that said it works when not on WIFI and it works! So just turn off WiFi before opening app!!!! ### 5/5 — App Issue Workaround *2024-12-11, version 1.1.7* I found that I can control the tree if I am not connected to WiFi and connect using Bluetooth. Hopefully this helps others that still have this amazing tree! ### 5/5 — Tree owes me nothin *2023-12-18, version 1.1.7* I’ve had this tree and app for 8 years. Updates on the app have been lacking but the fact the tree and app still function 8 years later is pretty amazing. For those having the issues with the app crashing on iOS 17.2 what I had to do was forget the tree. Restart my device. Launch the app and then connect to the tree and it is working fine. I think some of the changes Apple made to Bluetooth due tot he flipper fiasco caused some issues with Bluetooth devices and apps. I don’t expect this tree to continue working forever, but it was fantastic while it lasted ### 5/5 — Apple Updated the *2022-12-06* I no longer have my tree but kept my lights. thanks to apple my phone now works with my lights I don’t have to worry about if my tablet is charged or not it’s on my phone all updated and working wonderfully. Thank you Apple. ### 5/5 — ITwinkle tree *2016-12-06, version 1.1.7* I love this tree, i highly recommend it. Has the large c9 style lights that dance and twinkle on com and and with music, only complaint is I wish there were more songs to play on the box. ### 5/5 — Amazing!! *2016-11-23, version 1.1.7* Does my tree very well could use a few more features, but other than that great app great tree. ### 4/5 — Please update *2024-11-30, version 1.1.7* Please update the app! I love these lights and I wish it was possible to do more with them! ### 4/5 — App works fine on iPhone 15 Pro *2023-12-08, version 1.1.7* App works fine on iPhone 15 Pro and iOS 17.1.2. Downloaded it on my new phone. Used Bluetooth to connect to the tree, and tapped my tree in the app. Everything works fine. Amazing considering the app hasn’t been updated in 8+ years. ### 4/5 — App no longer works *2020-12-20, version 1.1.7* My Christmas tree bought several years ago seems to work with the App but now the app no longer works. This is really frustrating. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
