App does not function

Downloaded app to run my new bulbs. App merely tells you it does not work any longer and directs you to download another app which I could not locate. Apple should remove or revise this item.

App is broken

Watched tutorials online and noticed the wifi bulb line of products all connect through their built in wifi. Every time I try to use the app to connect it prompts me to connect to them with Bluetooth. Not sure what update caused this bug but it needs to be fixed. Tried reinstalling and everything. Doesn’t make sense that it wants me to connect to the wifi bulb through Bluetooth. Can’t get it to give me any other option to connect except through Bluetooth.

No HomeKit & no Home Assistant, so no stars

I would give 0 stars if I could.

Horrible

This has to be one of the most user unfriendly apps out there. Can’t set a group up with dynamic mode with multiple colors. You have to create a preset for a single light but then cannot apply it to the other lights. Once you create a preset you should be able to select it it on the other lights.

Bad app

The bulbs work fine, they have nice color and brightness. The app is pretty underwhelming though.

There is no way to use presets together on every bulb. You have to switch every bulb to it, then it doesn’t use the preset together.

I wish there was a way to better control the “smart” feature throughout the day. I want them to be dim at night and bright in the morning, but I have to change it whenever I turn the bulb on. I wish it would automatically change due to the time, Even if the bulb is off at the set time.
Ex: from 10pm-8am it is on this brightness, and the bulb doesn’t have to be on at 10 and 8 to change, it can be set to that during those hours.

Also, one in every 3 bulbs doesn’t work. Please fix that.

Literally Spyware

Wants your precise location to "ensure your safety when using the app".
Note that this is a Chinese app.

I should not have to point it out, but make sure if you create an account do not put the password of your email account as password.

I cannot imagine this app to have any other purpose than getting into people's emails.
You will likely also receive more spam...shouldn't have given them my email address...

App not tested

So many issues. Can’t save a scene. Garbage. Not tested.

Broken App

The lights themselves are just fine, but I physically cannot turn them off half the time because the app won’t load and is just a blank white screen.

Cheap bulbs, crap software

I should have paid more for nicer bulbs just for the software. These bulbs are fine, but I’m constantly having to correct screens, timed on/off etc. sometimes the bulbs are on in the middle of the day, or the colors aren’t working, the scenes aren’t activating as programmed. It’s a constant chore to keep correcting what should be a set it and forget operation.

Just turns on by itself

What happened? It was fine till update. Screw this

Needs update like a year ago

The “all control” should have the same options like “preset, white, colors” like when you click on them individually. The lights also tend to disconnect often. Might have to purchase different lights as these are not living up to the standard I thought they would

Hub fuera de lĂ­nea

Malo. El hub no se mantiene conectado solo por ratos y hay que estar reiniciando

not very "smart"

i constantly have time where the lights just disconnect from my phone for no reason, usually at night or in the mornings.
another huge thing: why cant you add a scene that includes presets? it's so painstaking to individually press each of my 4 lights to make them to a preset mode. and for a preset such as "Party", then all of the lights aren't in sync. Just let me sage it as a scene!
Wish it had a dark mode honestly. a little too bright to the eyes.

Like these Wi-Fi builds a lot.

Bought these (4) bulbs on Amazon and easily connected them to both Wi-Fi and Alexa. I have 2 wall lamps above my bed but are too high to just reach up and turn them off. I have a echo dot beside my bed so now I just say “ Alexa , turn papa’s light off/on”. Will be buying more things from Linkind .

This app is terrible

It’s constantly losing connection

notifications not working

The notification function for the alarm system which used to work does not work at all any more. No notifications about a sensor or movement detection. Only when I am in the app I can see the alarm going off.
This makes the whole alarm system obsolete!!! Where can I get my money back???

App is horrible

Lights are cool but the app is horrible. Remodeled for 3 weeks and turned the lights back on and can barely get them to work. Something between the new iOS 15.4 update and this app update between then has made these lights worthless

So dumb

First off it’s just dumb, cheap, poor development, why cant I set a preset tk a group at once, why cant I adjust presets brightness, why do all the presets stink, there’s not a single strobe light, just the presets are horirble, barely any customization, and group control is horrible

WiFi never worked.

Four bulbs four different scan codes. None of them worked on my Iphone13.

New update is bad 2022

The new update made the speaker on the camera extremely quiet and the microphone can barely pick up my voice. Before the update no issues with talking through the camera and it was more than loud enough now it’s so quiet you have to get next to the camera to actually hear anything. I use it as a baby monitor so when my son wakes up in the middle of the night and I want to comfort him without physically disturbing him I can no longer do that. I will change my rate to five once this is fixed and depending on how quick it’s fixed.
