### 2/5 — Useful but unreliable

*2024-06-09*

This app is amazing when it isn’t crashing. I haven’t been able to adjust my lights in over a week. It’s really annoying.

### 2/5 — Crap

*2021-02-20, version 1.0.1*

Worked a couple months and now won’t work in app or with Alexa Dot.

### 2/5 — App doesn’t work

*2021-01-14, version 1.0.1*

When I open the app it just shuts down

### 1/5 — Fix issues?

*2021-01-08, version 1.0.1*

Why is no one from Jetstream working to fix the issue with their app not connecting to Alexa. This was the main reason for me getting the product but now that it no longer does what I want it to do, I will be switching products to one that will stay on top of simple issues as this.

### 1/5 — What happened?!?!?

*2021-01-07, version 1.0.1*

I’ve been using this app and products for over a year. All of the sudden within the last week, one by one my devices started dropping off like flies. The devices are “unresponsive” according to the Alexa app. I have deleted and reconnected everything and it seems to recognize and connect for a minute then goes back to unresponsive. Very disappointed.

### 1/5 — Lost alexa support

*2021-01-06, version 1.0.1*

Can’t use with Alexa anymore

### 2/5 — Can No Longer Connect to Alexa

*2021-01-06, version 1.0.1*

The product is good when it works! The app crashes from time to time (only way to solve it is to wait it out). However, I can no connect to Alexa now... I’ve tried trouble shooting through Alexa as well as through the Jetstream App. I’m disappointed!

### 1/5 — No longer works w Alexa

*2021-01-06, version 1.0.1*

This app worked fine for 2 years, until 1/4/21 when it made all my smart bulbs unresponsive. I called Amazon and they had no solution. I accidentally found that someone else had the same problem and had to switch apps. The Jetstream Skill can no longer be enabled in the Alexa app either.
I switched to the “Smartlife” app, and everything is back to normal. The pairing with the other app is identical.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2020-12-10, version 1.0.1*

I keep getting kicked out

### 3/5 — Can’t use app while on call

*2020-12-08, version 1.0.1*

The app is useful. My main issue is that if you’re on a call the app will not work, which can be an issue if you’re on a work call but need to adjust your lightbulb.

### 1/5 — waste of money

*2020-11-06, version 1.0.1*

Color light keeps asking to upgrade after linking and doesnt work but i see that the app has been not updated since 1 yr. how do you think i will update in my phone without app itself not being updated??

### 3/5 — Needs fixing

*2020-10-17, version 1.0.1*

It shuts off your audio to open it which is very annoying and it will not open if on a call/FaceTime. It has potential but the flukes need to be worked out

### 1/5 — God forbid your power goes out!

*2024-12-15*

Power was out for 3 hours. When it came back on in the middle of the night, every single light was blinking. Every single one had to be reset manually and the schedules added once again. I am not amused. A power outage should NOT cause the bulbs to suddenly forget how to connect to wifi and to reset automatically. That is insane.

Update: lights no longer talk to the app. Ever. This app hasn’t been updated in 5 years. Steer clear.

### 1/5 — fix it please

*2022-06-02, version 1.0.1*

I just got this app yesterday & it’s already crashing

### 1/5 — Jetstream servers offline

*2021-11-01, version 1.0.1*

Can’t use my smart bulb because the servers are down. Account exception

### 1/5 — Jetstream

*2021-10-24, version 1.0.1*

It’s hard to keep it connected to my echo. It always needing up

### 1/5 — App keeps crashing

*2021-06-29, version 1.0.1*

The app doesn’t even open it’s just keeps crashing

### 1/5 — Fix it

*2021-02-09, version 1.0.1*

Why doesn’t the app work when I’m on my phone? Why won’t my light bulbs connect to my WiFi? There have been so many times that I want to turn my lights on/off and I end up just getting up and Unplugging them because the app won’t open. I’ve tried so many times to connect the bulbs...it won’t work. Called customer service and they told me to wait a couple weeks as the app is being updated. I’m over it. I want a refund.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work with Alexa anymore

*2021-01-28, version 1.0.1*

Lightbulb stopped responding to voice commands a few weeks ago.  Alexa app can no longer detect the device.  What’s the problem?  This used to work fine, but without voice commands I’m not interested in this worthless app and product.

### 1/5 — No longer works with Alexa

*2021-01-22, version 1.0.1*

Worked great until Jan 2021 and completely quit working with Alexa. Tons of reviews in amazon about it too and no responses.

### 1/5 — What happened?

*2021-01-08, version 1.0.1*

Was working great for a few months but since January 4th stopped working with Alexa which is the reason I bought theses bulbs. I have emailed customer service and haven’t heard back from them. Almost every light in my house is useless now. If you use the switch too often they blink to reset.

### 5/5 — Garbage

*2021-01-09, version 1.0.1*

Most garbage and useless app/service ever, can’t even launch the app to turn my devices on, heavily NOT recommended!

### 5/5 — Works

*2020-11-21, version 1.0.1*

The product works as advertised!

### 5/5 — Mesa T

*2020-11-13, version 1.0.1*

Love this product and this App. Easy to install and operate👍

### 5/5 — Great app! Limited bulb functionality

*2020-09-19, version 1.0.1*

Downloaded this app to manage the JetStream Color Smart Bulbs I purchased through Walmart. Honestly, for the price of the bulbs I can’t complain much (but I will).
1 - Scenario and Automation functions are EXTREMELY hindered if the only option is “turn on/turn off” and “brightness”. Why can’t I set a Scenario/Automation where I can, not just turn the bulb or or off, but also preemptively select the color or the scene it will trigger?
2- IFTTT applet functionality would be amazing
3- You are already using general location based triggers for some (limited) Automation options, why not allow that for Scenarios as well?
The app does what it’s supposed to do, hooray for that, the problem is that the app and bulb behave like a smart phone that can only receive calls and text messages. Whats the purpose of it being smart then?

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2020-07-29, version 1.0.1*

Great device

### 4/5 — Needs some fixing

*2021-01-08, version 1.0.1*

I love it it is a good product but as a teen I am on calls a lot with friends and I can’t have much fun and change it on call if I’m on a call and try to go on the app the app crashes

### 3/5 — Bug with IPhone 14PM

*2024-12-14*

I have a bulb that only works with this app.  It tells me this version no longer supports this version and I need to update in the app.  It brings me to the app and there are no updates?

### 3/5 — It started out great and then.......

*2021-04-24, version 1.0.1*

Recently my iPhone was reset to factory and when I tried to resync my bulbs and plugs it won’t sync. Since I’m handicapped I end up having to leave my bedroom light on all night cuz it on the other side of the room. If a developer could contact me it would be great!

### 3/5 — Push notifications

*2021-02-22, version 1.0.1*

I have all notifications enabled, but I never get anything from the app.

### 3/5 — Stopped working with Alexa

*2021-01-05, version 1.0.1*

Will not connect to the Alexa app as of today. Has been working great for months.
