Doesn’t work! *2022-05-22, version 1.1.3* Doesn’t work! Wasted money on smart bulbs! Lenovo is a scam! ### 1/5 — Trash - Do not buy Lenovo smart devices *2022-05-12, version 1.1.3* Apple shouldn’t allow this app on the store. It won’t allow me to add a device without logging in and it won’t allow me to login or create a new account. It immediately crashes when attempting. ### 1/5 — Fail to login *2022-03-28, version 1.1.3* Pls fix yr app. Cant log in for past 1wk. ### 1/5 — just get a lifx *2022-03-28, version 1.1.3* i've had several brain aneurysms trying to log in let alone link a light bulb ### 1/5 — DO NOT GET LENOVO PRODUCTS *2022-03-28, version 1.1.3* I just bought a brand new Lenovo smart bulb but I can’t even connect it it was a huge waste of money and as I read the reviews I regret buying it more. So im throwing it out and going to get an Alexa and an Alexa smart bulb. Thanks for nothing Lenovo ### 1/5 — Get the Lenovo Pro instead *2022-03-18, version 1.1.3* Don’t waste your time on this app. If you’re currently trying to set up smart devices the interface is so much better on Lenovos other app. Took me two minutes compared to two hours. Hope this helped. ### 1/5 — Useless *2022-03-11, version 1.1.3* Found my bulb. Firmware update 10 minutes of nothing. Now can’t find my bulb. Why does it ask for wifi password when I am already on that network? Next it says login to another wifi network. Assuming it is a temporary wifi I tried to find it but there is nothing. ### 1/5 — Nup no nada zero zilch *2022-01-29, version 1.1.3* I could not sign up so i could do my led strip lights terrible i hope it gets better ### 2/5 — Smart plug *2022-01-24, version 1.1.3* I bjbbdjkxbought like 5 smart plug is working for quite a while But then lately I have to reset a lot and now the Lenovo app not even working. Trying to contact the CS but can’t find information. Not even email address. So disposable ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2022-01-20, version 1.1.3* Can’t even login. ### 1/5 — Worse App ever *2022-01-16, version 1.1.3* Don’t bother! ### 1/5 — App really doesn’t work. *2022-01-13, version 1.1.3* Try to sign in and it freezes and if you try to create a new login just crashes. The smart devices are useless without the functioning app. What a waste of money. ### 1/5 — sign up button *2021-12-27, version 1.1.3* The sign up bitten literally crashes so I can't even use the bulb. It's so bad I wanna give it a 0 but that's not possible so I give it a 1. ### 1/5 — Just terrible *2021-12-16, version 1.1.3* Every time I try to press sign up it just goes out the app ### 1/5 — App is broken, no way to set up account or contact Lenovo *2021-12-11, version 1.1.3* Sign up button crashes the app (it looks like app was updated more then year ago, so that’s why it probably does not support nor iOS15 nor iOS14.8) and both Feedback and Contacts require to have an account. AppleID is not an option. And one cannot create account in browser. Makes Lenovo smart plugs unusable. ### 1/5 — Should be 0 stars *2021-11-28, version 1.1.3* This app does not work. It looks like the issues have been ongoing for years. Do not buy the outlets, it’s a huge waste of money since you can’t set them up ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Useless *2026-07-28, version 1.1.3* This app is garbage. Won’t let you do anything. ### 1/5 — Stopped working. *2025-12-24, version 1.1.3* This app, along with Lenovo Link Pro, is no longer being maintained and cannot be logged into. It should have been removed from the appstore. ### 1/5 — USELESS *2025-02-16, version 1.1.3* I do t understand why this even exists, it’s as useless as the “Pro” version ### 1/5 — Straight up garbage app *2024-05-07, version 1.1.3* Would rate 0 stars if I could, if you try to click the sign up button it instantly crashes, completely useless app ### 1/5 — Fix this please *2024-04-10, version 1.1.3* Just fix this ### 1/5 — 3 years later *2024-01-28, version 1.1.3* And this app doesn’t work… today January 2024 still doesn’t work .. I’m going to give back this bulb and forget about this thing ### 1/5 — abandoned project *2024-01-09, version 1.1.3* dont purchase the smart devices from lenovo. it's abandoned ### 1/5 — Trash *2023-11-24, version 1.1.3* Trash ### 1/5 — worst *2022-12-09, version 1.1.3* app doesn’t work and stuck with devices where is my refund ### 1/5 — Plugs don’t work - App don’t work *2022-09-25, version 1.1.3* After two years the plugs no longer connect to Wifi. They also cannot be removed from the app to reset and add again. Thanks for making eWaste for the earth. Truly a careless manufacturer to keep a product in the market and fail to support at such magnitude. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Enlightening *2026-04-23, version 1.1.3* It was a great time using this app to control smart things. ### 5/5 — Works for the Smart Plug! *2020-08-02, version 1.1.3* Tried to connect to Lenovo Link Pro as other reviews suggested but it would never connect! This one works great for me! ### 5/5 — Little hiccup *2019-12-11, version 1.1.2* Recently there was a hiccup with connecting with smart plugs. Thankfully Lenovo was able to fix this on their side without updating the app. ### 5/5 — Easy to use *2019-09-29, version 1.1.2* This app was the easiest to pair with, of all the home automation product apps that I have used. It paired first time without repeated attempts, or having to put it in AP mode. The powerpoints are small and I should be able to get two side by side. ### 5/5 — Farely to say，this is the most stylish smart home app… *2019-04-23, version 1.0.32* I love this app ### 5/5 — App Great *2019-04-23, version 1.0.32* I love this app very much. ### 5/5 — Easy to use *2019-04-19* Fairly easy to start with, overall stable, better if design is further polished. ### 4/5 — It’s good but other people are doing it wrong *2020-04-26, version 1.1.2* It is a bit hard because smart devices you buy now are on firmware 3.8 or something and you use Lenovo link then it will ask you to update the device to 4.0 and then the device won’t work with Lenovo link you have to use Lenovo link pro which Lenovo could of done differently but besides that the Lenovo link pro is amazing and so much better than Lenovo link ### 4/5 — Finally allows dual 2.4 and 5ghz wifi! *2019-11-24, version 1.1.2* But The schedules crash on programming Not smart regression testing Lenovo! ### 3/5 — Another better app & UI & function *2020-05-06, version 1.1.2* Hey guys you should consider download Lenovo Link Pro rather than this, the Pro’s UI is really better than this one, and I believe any device that works on this will works on that (at least my AU White Bulb is). Btw, I found that you could set a timer for a particular light Temp. and Brightness, looks like you could use it as a wake up lamp in your bedroom... wake up lamps on market cost more than a $20 White Bulb! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
