### 1/5 — Always been bad, now it’s broken

*2026-03-16*

The app has been terrible from the time I got the lights til now. It’s always been a struggle to connect the lights, and they’d randomly get disconnected and have to be reconnected which is a MAJOR hassle on the app. Now anytime I try to connect them, the app just tells me the Wi-Fi is disconnected and asks me to retry over and over and over. I should have saved my money years ago and gotten Philips hue products and saved myself the use of this godawful app.

### 1/5 — Just glitches out, waste of time

*2024-07-12, version 1.2.2*

.

### 3/5 — Worked at first

*2021-06-03*

Simple app, easy to use. However it doesn’t support 5Gghz wifi. My bulbs just disappeared from my list and im unable to reconnect them. :/

### 4/5 — Alright

*2020-12-08, version 1.2.2*

It’s alright but I just ended up coding my own on a local website using python. Works a lot better

### 4/5 — Firmware

*2020-07-08*

There is no way to update firmware on the devices. This is problematic when running multiple devices with different firmware, especially the rgbw controllers. The 6.v1 firmware will not allow light color control via Alexa or google assistant, so when grouped with controllers that do, voice functions don’t work.  I don’t know if this is an app problem or a device problem. 

Aside from that I’m been using these for years with no problems until these new controllers.

### 1/5 — Terrible App Loses Connectivity

*2020-05-08*

I have yet to be able to get it to connect to Alea and the app loses connectivity to WiFi constantly.  This makes the timers virtually worthless as it seems it must stay connected to work!!  Please make a stable app!!

### 5/5 — One problem

*2020-03-13*

There should be an option to change the brightness on your own custom light settings not just on the single color option. Every time i click on my custom light settings it changes the brightness and there is no way to change it. It also maybe should retain the brightness setting switching over from different settings. Other than that all good!

### 1/5 — Used to work, but now it’s spotty at best

*2019-10-11*

UI is terrible, interface is confusing and awful. Worst of all? The lightbulb barely connects and there’s no way to refresh. This app really needs a redesign

### 4/5 — Preset only for RGB not RGBW or RGBWW

*2018-11-02, version 1.0.7*

The DIY preset button only stores the RGB colour not the RGBW or RGBWW colour. Therefore when the colour is changed, then you want to get back to the original colour setting with the DIY preset button, you can only get the same RGB colour. This issue needs to be addressed so the DIY preset button saves the value for all of the R,G,B,W and WW LEDs.

### 5/5 — How to delete group

*2018-09-22*

So I accidentally created a group, for some reason Google thinks the group is a light. So I will ask Google to turn off all lights and he says okay turning off 5 lights when I only have 4 how do I delete the Group?
