### 1/5 — Hard to connect

*2026-05-31, version 1.4*

This app is trash af. Bluetooth barely wants to connect.

### 3/5 — Functions

*2026-03-06, version 1.4*

Pretty easy concept of the app, but without info about how to use the loop or fade options, I’m stuck with only the themes and solid colors. They all work well, but it’d be nice to be able to choose my own colors over a set of predetermined ones.

### 2/5 — App needs a update

*2026-02-06, version 1.4*

For a company that sells expensive products i would have expected more from the app. It works but its buggy. please give this app some TLC

### 1/5 — It doesn’t connect to the phone.

*2025-09-15, version 1.4*

Try to pair to my phone and nothing happens.

### 2/5 — The App is terrible

*2024-04-25, version 1.4*

I hate the app it doesn’t register anything you want it to do.  The only thing that seems to work well is the spin wheel.  Turning on or off your halos or rock lights it doesn’t respond.

### 1/5 — App not functioning properly

*2024-01-25, version 1.4*

I have the halos and demons eye and having the app to control the lights. The polarity is off on the app. When I select a color on the wheel, it shows the opposite color on the color wheel. Also, when I hit the odd button, all the lights turn white. 

No one at Morimoto had a solution or thought. I tried several controllers, different devices and different lights. It seems as though it’s an app problem. 

 Can anyone provide and assistance please!!!!

### 3/5 — It’s alright

*2023-10-24, version 1.4*

I have the Prism Projector Demon Eye / Halo setup on my 370z and even when the car is off power still goes to the module therefore using my battery. When I hit the off button on the app it doesn’t do anything and the halos/demon eyes still stay on?! Is there a support number or something, also the app is alright definitely a better way needs to be made to change the colors and stuff. And instead of clicking name 1 or name 2 or name 3 to change it just have a section for each. Just a few examples, definitely could be a lot better other than that I love my headlights a lot of compliments.

### 3/5 — It stopped working

*2023-09-06, version 1.4*

The app worked well for the first four months. But now it won’t let me change the rgb on my headlights. It could just be that the app needs to be compatible with the latest iOS 16 firmware. But I’m still waiting

### 5/5 — Needs to CarPlay enabled!!

*2023-09-01, version 1.4*

The app works as advertised, broad color changing spectrum but it seriously it needs to be CarPlay enabled to give a better experience. Controlling from the phone is good, but adding CarPlay will have them ahead of the competitors. Overall loving the app, and all of Morimoto’s line of products. Please bring CarPlay soon!!

### 4/5 — Decent so far

*2023-05-22, version 1.4*

Just installed my aftermarket headlights that are using the XBT controller. So far it seems decent, the color picker as others have said isn’t really that great at times. Would also be nice to have a widget to add to my lock/home screen for a quick on/off button without opening the app.
