### 1/5 — Lume Lazy

*2025-01-02*

Too confusing, too many Lume Cube llc apps available. What which one is best to download??? Lazy to not update your advice on which app to download for your Lume Cubes.

### 1/5 — Needs some love

*2024-09-21, version 2.0.2*

No updates in a long time… 

Still after all this time can’t set loop colors.

When setting a custom color the color selected doesn’t show on the main control page.

### 1/5 — Worst app and product known to man  DONT BUY

*2023-08-21, version 2.0.2*

“Ignore the bad reviews”what a joke  I spent 279 dollars on a product with no instructions and a terrible app. I will be returning my product please SAVE YOURESELF THE HASTLE AND DONT BUY THIS. The publicity and ads of this product make it seem way better then it is. You can get better for cheaper. Feels like a 2 dollar piece of equipment marked up 1,000%

### 1/5 — Extremely poor UI design

*2023-05-19, version 2.0.2*

No fine control over colors. Only as accurate as a thumb can be on a tiny color wheel about the size of a dime. No way to turn off a functional mode. No way to return light to default white color mode. Good light. Very poor App.

### 1/5 — Unnecessary personal info required

*2023-04-07, version 2.0.2*

The very first thing this app asks for when I try to pair with my Lume Cube 2.0 is a cell number and email. Nope! Sorry, that’s not information that I intend to share for this purpose. The App Privacy disclosure says no data is collected, but that’s an outright lie.

### 2/5 — Does the basic job but terrible design

*2023-02-15, version 2.0.2*

For such an expensive device and app should’ve been much better!
UX is stuck in 2012 or around that time.
App does exactly the same what my PanelPro already has on its LCD.. frankly, using LCD screen might be even more intuitive and easier. 
Most likely will just ditch the app and use decide without it.

### 1/5 — Good device, bad app

*2022-09-27, version 2.0.2*

The main problem I have with this app is that you can’t smoothly drag the sliders. After dragging them a small amount, they forget you’re dragging them. This means you have to keep watching your phone, instead of keeping your eyes on the scene you’re trying to light.
They should redo the UI with a more reliable system.

### 5/5 — Beautiful Product with an easy to use app.

*2022-09-17, version 2.0.2*

I’ve been wanting to get a Lume Cube ever since I saw one used to illuminate a rock formation at night. I participated in a Milky Way workshop at Joshua Tree National Park. The 15 second shutter speed capture both the illuminated Arch Rock with the Milky Way hovering over it. I couldn’t get over the detail of the rock. It was pitch dark. It was just enough light being sent to match the film speed.

### 4/5 — Works great

*2022-09-05, version 2.0.2*

I don’t write reviews. I could count the number I’ve written on one hand. But I’m chiming in to counter the preponderance of negative reviews. Sure, it’s not the greatest designed app of all time, but it was extremely easy to set up, pair (using instructions in the app itself), and use with my Panel Pro. It’s a very handy app in that you can change settings much more quickly than on the device, and the RGB color wheel is a nice feature.

### 5/5 — I Have NO idea what’s going on….

*2022-03-19, version 2.0.2*

Holy Crap! I almost didn’t download this app after reading the horrendous reviews… And multiple reviews that stated that the 2.0 LUME CubesWould not pair up with this app! Well, all I have to say is I have the Lumecubes 2.0, and the second I launch the app there they were on the screen ready to pair! All I had to do was hit the button! I’ve never seen pairing so easy! The app is laid out well, it does exactly what it’s supposed to do… So I have no idea the problems that you guys are having, maybe some people just should not have tech! Lol I sure know a LOT of people that just need to stay away from “Tech”, Just doesn’t agree with em! Lol
GREAT APP!
GREAT LIGHTS!
