Do not buy this brand.

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

Horrible

I would give this app 0 stars if I could. Just set up my bookshelf and the lights straight out of the box aren’t working correctly on their own or with the app. The app will only register my lights half of the time and when it does, it does nothing still. This app is garbage and so is the quality of the items the company sells.

Mad

This was hung sucks I can’t even connect I spend over 2 hours and still won’t work

Great App

Lights and patterns are pretty consistent. A little delay in turning off the lights, however, beautiful pattern when turning it off!

Recommend

This did take some time to connect but you just have to go to your Bluetooth and connect it it works very well and I would defiantly recommend.

Colors

I wanted to change it to pumpkin orange I put in the color code and it doesn’t change I turned the lights off and on and still nothing. Disappointed

Complete Garbage

The possibility of what this app could do is amazing. However, there are a lot of functional issues with it. The lights are constantly changing settings and colors. They pop on and off at all hours of the day. Nothing like starting your day off with a seizure when the lights start violently strobing at 3:00 AM. It’s frustrating that there is no way to control who has access to your lights in the app. If you living in a multi-home dwelling, like an apartment, get used to every neighbor being able to adjust your lights.

Lame

The built-in modes are ugly. You cannot adjust colors for the modes. You can only adjust the color for the “one color” mode. Otherwise you are stuck with their truly horrible patterns and colors. I can program better looking modes with my eyes closed. I will be replacing the controller with my own custom one.

Turn on by itself

I have a led badge I got off TikTok. I turn off the badge in the app and every morning the led badge is on! I even tried to delete the app after I turn it off and it still turns on by itself.

Terrible app

Strip lights themselves are not bad to start with for the price, app on the other hand is a waste of time, had to reinstall 3 times so it could find the lamps after seeing someone else’s review having the same issue. When they all connected to my app none of them sync up what I find really annoying, should be an option to sync for music

Please update your app

The lights and wires are nice and sturdy now so I take it you are getting better, I hope you can update the app too, specifically the mic function should more versatility and patterns.

Don’t buy

Didn’t connect I’ve been sitting here for thirty minutes and nothing with auto connect like really my light strip is still flashing colours just to say it does that when you plug it in

Do not buy

It won’t connect. The sounds do not work. The microphone does not work.

EVbase Led

Those LEDs are amazing; the Bluetooth automatically connects to your dashboard. I hate it when the brightness is set too high. I want to set my own brightness level.

WORST APP

do not think this works every action is straight up dumb the controls are glitched poor coding

I tried everything

The app won’t work even the new remote won’t work plus the app has bad quality

i don’t understand the bad reviews

works great connects automatically and no ads or payment, honestly the best led control app i could find, i don’t understand all the bad reviews at all

doesn’t connect

never connects
worked for like a year

Works for me

Works great for me. No connection issues or delay when changing colors. If I’m not mistaken, the only thing missing from the app is the sound reactive lights option.
I have it on my remote so it’s no biggie.
