### 3/5 — Sweet controller

*2023-12-24, version 1.11.1*

I love this controller. I’ve been trying to find a easier way to control my Rgb pixels on my house. The only thing I wish this app had was more options and slower option on the custome side of the app.

### 2/5 — Unconected

*2023-04-01, version 1.11.1*

It wont let me choose the segments or pixels it keeps saying connect a device first and says unconected at the top but im able to change colors of the strip and do everything else

### 2/5 — No compatible con IPhone

*2022-10-27, version 1.11.1*

No funciona en IPhone, ni modo AP ni modo Station. La razón es que no existe la opción de dar permisos de wifi a la aplicación en los ajustes del Iphone. Sin poder dar permisos no detecta el SP108E de ninguna forma.

### 2/5 — ALEXA

*2022-10-05, version 1.11.1*

Esse aparelho precisa ter conexão com a ALEXA

### 2/5 — Updates Required

*2022-08-10, version 1.11.1*

This app needs to be kept upto date with the latest LED's that it's designed to work with.
New variation of LED's need to be added for instance WS2812B require to be added as the latest family of LED's on the market.

### 3/5 — App is ok

*2022-06-12, version 1.11.1*

Took a few times of connecting the controller for the app to recognize it… app doesn’t always see the controller when it starts up but usually only takes a minute for it to work after a refresh.  Biggest downside I can see is it doesn’t have a timer feature which would be ideal as it’s being sold as a controller for exterior home lighting systems.

### 3/5 — Could be better

*2022-01-16, version 1.11.1*

usually have to restart the app 4 times before it will recognize my transmitter. having the ability to slow the speed down to static as well would be a plus

### 2/5 — Keine Verbindung mehr mit wlan

*2021-12-26, version 1.11.1*

Seit kurzer Zeit kann ich mich nicht mehr mit den Controller verbinden. Ein Reset scheint es nicht zu geben. 
Hoffe es ändert sich was.

### 2/5 — 請更新

*2021-12-02, version 1.11.1*

ios15不能用

### 1/5 — Terrible.

*2021-11-22, version 1.11.1*

This app is so bad I actually feel swindled by the company that installed my Christmas lights. It takes forever to connect each time. I have to be about 2 feet from my house in order to connect, so it’s really obvious when I’m not home. The interface is confusing. And there’s no basic functionality like a TIMER?! Who wants to remember to turn the lights on and off each day? Or if I go to bed early, so do my lights. Big mistake not checking the app thoroughly before purchasing an expensive set of lights.

### 1/5 — Many functions don’t work

*2021-10-13, version 1.11.1*

The customization tab is a joke, you can set customized options IF it saves and doesn’t kick you out, but then you can’t delete any to add new ones…

### 3/5 — Could be a goldmine

*2021-09-09, version 1.11.1*

Developers please please see you are ahead of the competition on product and price (need to get this out to people and show them performance v price on competition is unbelievable) 

But must add HomeKit support, Shortcuts and that will give the ability to change lights in scenes and in groups and will be easier than you coding it into the app. I have the WiFi box the functionally must be there just need code, I’m sure apple has dev kits for Siri and HomeKit? 

Could be 5 stars.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t Connect

*2021-09-07, version 1.11.1*

It says I have successfully connected to the device, but it never shows up in the device list. Either the LED Shop device doesn’t work, or this app doesn’t work.

### 2/5 — app feels half-baked, needs work

*2021-06-13, version 1.11.1*

There are some cool options, such as the ability to import a photo (which unfortunately doesn’t persist through power off/on as do regular preset patterns). But setup and configuration is sketchy, and I’ve experienced an abnormal number of app crashes (iOS 14.6).

### 1/5 — Not working under latest iOS

*2021-05-08, version 1.11.1*

Can connect the controller but it won’t show up!

### 3/5 — Updates needed

*2021-04-21, version 1.11.1*

Needs support for automation. Timer, schedule are must!

WS2815 - can’t get cool white!?

App is not able to maintain a connected list.  Need s to swipe down (iOS) to find device (SP108E). Doesn’t always work.  Needs to swipe down many times every time to get “connected”.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Not it’s friendly

*2026-03-27, version 1.11.1*

The app failed during a real customer installation. The controller showed its WiFi network, but the app would not complete the connection or setup process, making it unreliable for professional use. This caused delays on site and forced me to leave the lights in a fixed mode instead of delivering full app control. The app needs a more stable connection process and better compatibility with the controller.

### 1/5 — Crashes

*2025-11-12, version 1.11.1*

When using custom lighting if the phone goes to sleep the device reverts to static and if you open the phone it fails to connect because the app has forgotten the type of device it was connected to. Seems to be ok on static and mixed but they are too restrictive so you cant setup a custom lighting effect and leave it running

### 1/5 — Failed to configure

*2025-05-23, version 1.11.1*

In general it’s convoluted and over complicated for an RGB LED controller to require connecting to it as a hotspot. Following the complicated directions and it still fails to configure. Waste of money. Get a Bluetooth LE controller instead as it’s a lot simpler to setup and maintain.

### 1/5 — No smart support

*2024-02-22, version 1.11.1*

NO SMART SUPPORT

Can’t connect to anything, home assistant, google home etc 
Only work from their poor simple app

### 1/5 — Wish this was more user friendly

*2023-11-21, version 1.11.1*

I love all the preloaded options but why are there none that are not moving or flashing just want solid red and green lights and can’t figure it out shouldn’t be this complicated

### 1/5 — NOLAN

*2023-07-07, version 1.11.1*

Nicht in das lokale Netzwerk zu integrieren. Wenn man der Anleitung (wenn man das englische Gestammel so nennen mag) des Controller folgt passiert nix.

### 1/5 — Keine Verbindung zum Controler

*2023-02-18, version 1.11.1*

Ob es nun an der App oder dem Controler liegt ist mir nicht bekannt. Zumindest kann die App (auf iOS latest and greatest version) sich nicht mit dem Controler (Gen 2) verbinden.

Support? Finde ich keinen.

Daher am liebsten null Punkte für die Kombination aus App und Controler.

### 1/5 — Hard to use buggy and needs update

*2022-11-01, version 1.11.1*

Really. Needs an update! Was buggy and way to cumbersome to create scenes etc

### 1/5 — UPDATE THE APP

*2022-09-13, version 1.11.1*

Got these lights a year ago, and I wish I did more research. Last year they told me they were coming out very soon with a app update to have more options for our lights… been almost a year and nothing. These aren’t cheap so I’m very disappointed.

### 1/5 — Garbage App

*2022-01-02, version 1.11.1*

Will not connect unless I stand a foot or so from the controller.  When connected it will drop and leave you hanging.  No timer or ability to develop custom patterns.  Like a game of Russian roulette trying to determine a pattern.  Many of the pre sets are useless.  Two lights in chase pattern?  Who needs that.  Very disappointed.

### 5/5 — Add ability to choose some light patterns to play.

*2021-12-07, version 1.11.1*

Hi, could you please add additional ability for user to choose more than one light pattern to play? The Auto mode is playing all 180 light patterns but there are many light patterns we do not like. If we can choose 10 of our favourite light patterns and only playing those 10 light patterns that would be great! Thank you!

### 5/5 — Update!!

*2021-09-12, version 1.11.1*

Any update ??? We need more ambiance:)

### 5/5 — Great app

*2021-01-08, version 1.11.1*

Would love you if add a way for custom profiles for e.g I would like it to play a certain profile/mode for 10-30sec then move to another one and stay on the last one.

I am trying to make it so on startup it plays a pattern then goes to the last pattern i choose and stays there

### 5/5 — Great controller for LED strips!

*2020-11-25, version 1.11.1*

This is a fun app that has lots of options for LED strips. We have a 1080 light strip that is very long and it runs like a champ. You can even design your own show by loading in a photo or other pixel art and it will scroll it through the lights at any angle.

### 5/5 — Works great

*2020-10-03, version 1.11.1*

Really good app. Would be awesome to have group control so I can make changes that effect all strips as I have 8 controllers maybe an update can sort this

### 5/5 — Unter IOS 13 noch nicht nutzbar

*2019-09-30, version 1.9.1*

Die App funktioniert unter IOS 13 nicht mehr! Das verbundene WLAN Modul wird in der APP nicht mehr gefunden. Bitte fixen.

### 5/5 — It works

*2019-02-17, version 1.3*

Nice. Very nice.

### 5/5 — Отличное приложение

*2018-10-24, version 1.3*

Но!!! Добавьте редактор прямо в программу и больше возможностей для создания разных рисунков, а также возможность добавлять свои diy узоры в общий список.

### 4/5 — Connecting

*2023-10-06, version 1.11.1*

Been using these controllers for a year now 
Just got 3 more and non of them want to connect to any phone or wifi anyone know if it’s the controller or the actual app ?

### 4/5 — Will change to 5 stars

*2022-02-07, version 1.11.1*

For some reason my colors are all mixed up. I double checked my wiring 5 times. When I select red it turns blue, green turns red, blue turns green, yellow turns purple, purple turns aqua, and aqua turns yellow. The only one that it gets right is white. I honk the problem might be in the app. I will change this review to 5 stars if you fix it. Other than that, this app works great! Thank you!
