Bulb is great, app isn’t

I’ve had this bulb for years and had it in a box lace where I rarely changed the color. However, recently I’ve put it in my bedroom where the default color and brightness is to harsh. Other smart bulbs and apps can be programmed to stay on a particular setting all the time. This bulb and app always default to the factory setting, what’s worse and totally frustrating is that to change the color and setting of the bulb, I have to uninstall and reinstall the app, EVERY TIME I want to use it. Im moving in two week, otherwise this thing would be in the trash.

I don’t see much wrong!

There are only little good reviews about this. The bulb was just so beautiful! The app is pretty easy to figure out and use! The only 2 problem I have with this app Is I can’t seem to figure out how to make a favorite color. It just comes up white and when I click on a color it will appear on my light bulb but not my “favorite color”. The second thing isn’t that big, but it has a delay on the “dimming” which isn’t really a problem but it can get annoying.

But this app deserves a 4/5!

Overall I’d give this a 8.3/10. If your looking for a aesthetic room look then go for this! I would recommend led lights better, but this is a great product if you can’t find led lights!

App Fixes

Okay when I first bought this bulb a couple months ago the app was TERRIBLE and I mean completely GARBAGE. However they have done a lot of updates since then and now it connects perfectly fine, changes colors and all of that smoothly through the app where as before it was annoying just getting it to sync.

Please add strobe light options!

I love the lightbulb but the app is extremely frustrating to use. I constantly have to unplug my lightbulb for it to connect or when I try to download the app on two devices, it only works on the second device. I would also suggest adding strobe light options since it would make the lightbulb much nicer! Even like another app that’s a pro version with strobe lights would be really awesome! 😄

We need an update

Every time I need to change the color. the app doesn’t work. We need a update and more features. This app company has great potential but they need to keep up with the app’s needs like making sure it doesn’t lose connection randomly, better music and lighting patterns and higher/ brighter quality light bulbs
