Lights are turning on and off at random times

For the first year and a half the lights worked perfectly fine but now at random times of the day they will turn on with random solid colors and sometimes rapidly change for no reason even with the app deleted

App is fine

The app does what it’s suppose to do. The only thing I wish for is it to connect with Alexa.

Missing important feats

Where are "warm light", "soft light", "night light" ???

You provide all these 20 useless combinations yet don't offer the most essential ones?

Won’t stay connected

It keeps forgetting the schedule I set and just stays on. Very annoying. Going to try the Lotus Lantern app someone else suggested

Do not buy this brand.

This app absolutely does nothing. All the reviews are either fake or old. I’m returning this product.
