You can’t name the zones for example Demon Eye, halo, inner halo. I spent hours setting up my lights and I pretty disappointed. ### 2/5 — Agree with other reviewers… *2023-03-19, version 1.1* Lights are beautiful … but, the app needs work. As one reviewer said, there is no way to know, while in your vehicle, if what you’ve selected is what’s going on. Also, there needs to be a way to program the lights so that they start out clear. As one person said, some states do not allow Colorshift while you are driving. There should be a switch so that you can always run clear on the start (or a programmable button that make clear, or whatever color someone wants, upon start-up. Ideally, every time I jump in my Jeep, i should not have to be on the app adjusting the lights… If these items are fixed, I will give 5 stars! If I’m missing something, I’m happy to be educated… thank you! ### 2/5 — App needs updated. *2023-02-20, version 1.1* App has to be completed restarted while using it. Sometimes it won’t even turn the halo’s off. I’ve had to unhook the battery a couple times just to get the lights off. It’ll show that it’s connected to the lights but then won’t turn them on or off at times. ### 2/5 — One fog oracle light won’t work *2023-02-18, version 1.1* I’m having trouble with one of my oracle led lights. One does not work, but the other three are working. I’ve read that I should reset the app, but how do I do that? Thank You ### 1/5 — App won’t let me select the rock lights *2022-09-04, version 1.1* Help this app won’t let me shut off rock lights blinking colors and need help to turn off don’t want a ticket….any suggestions- iPhone 12 is our phones! So annoying. ### 1/5 — Oracle lights *2022-08-21, version 1.1* This is such a headache. ### 1/5 — Trash *2022-07-27, version 1.1* This a trash can of an app. It’s practically useless. Still have no idea how to use it because it the Bluetooth option is nonexistent. The physical led strips are legit but this app that controls them is absolute garbage ### 1/5 — App doesn’t work *2022-07-04, version 1.1* Terrible App. Doesn’t connect to Bluetooth and doesn’t even pull up a menu of Bluetooth devices. Really disappointed 0/10 ### 1/5 — App doesn’t work *2022-06-22, version 1.1* App doesn’t work, unresponsive. Says it’s connected. Downloaded HappyLighting that app works, but doesn’t seem to have the functionality. ### 1/5 — too costly to not work *2022-05-02, version 1.1* when your product costs as much as these do and your company doesnt have an app that works properly that makes you a lousy company. drivers can get tickets for what this dumb app causes the lights to do when the app isnt even switched to the on position. then when you want them to work if you exit out of the app the lights dont stay on the option you choose. the word about these lights with lack of user control needs to be spread across all jeep forums before more people waste their money and oracle cashes in without supporting their products ### 2/5 — Oracle lighting *2022-04-23, version 1.1* The idea is awesome, but the app is lacking the capability and proper usage , including the app being able to stay on once it’s turned on app shuts down when phone goes into sleep mode . There’s no ability to control all 3 different colour zones separately, the microphone app will not work if your phone is charging. ### 1/5 — Kc off road app *2022-04-10, version 1.1* That app works with the lights ### 1/5 — App is Garbage *2022-03-25, version 1.1* This app is complete trash. It connects to the lights but does absolutely nothing more. I can not change the colors or mode. I’ve tried all the recommended troubleshooting steps multiple times but none worked. This was my first Oracle LED product to install and it changed my perception of their products. ### 1/5 — Junk *2022-03-21, version 1.1* Seems to connect but I can’t control anything. No matter what I do it stays the default solid blue. ### 1/5 — App stays in Demo mode *2022-03-12, version 1.1* Color Shift rings 9” and 4” App will not stay on last setting, when powered off with ignition. Returns to factory settings of Demo Mode! A simple rewrite of the code would be most effective! Every time it powers up you need the app to change the setting.. I would like to have it on last setting, then be able to change it when I want! ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2022-02-18, version 1.1* I tried this app a dozen times reset system uninstall reinstall everything the directions said to do so I deleted it and installed happy lighting app worked like a charm 1st time no problems..would rather use the Oracle app please fix it!!! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Bad *2026-03-24, version 1.1* Doesn’t connect well with Bluetooth. And w no physical power button, makes the lights a waste of money! 😡 ### 1/5 — Does not work *2025-04-08, version 1.1* Don’t waste your time installing this…the app does not work. I followed the troubleshooting guide, double checking wiring and deleting/reinstalling the app. Nothing would help fix the connectivity issue. I ended up installing the HappyLighting app and had success immediately. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2024-11-17, version 1.1* Spent 300 dollars on lights and app doesn’t work at all complete scam ### 1/5 — Won’t turn off *2024-07-12, version 1.1* Had this app for two years worked perfectly fine then one day it just decided not to sync with the car anymore and now I can’t turn them off ### 1/5 — App is NOT reliable *2024-05-02, version 1.1* I don’t if it is on or off unless I walk outside to see it. Sometimes the App disconnects with the bluetooth and I cannot turn the lights off. It is a great product if THEY FIX THEIR APP!! How hard is it??? ### 1/5 — Not the right app *2023-07-14, version 1.1* Go download happy lighting. ### 1/5 — How can a company like this still be in business *2023-06-11, version 1.1* Sell a product that can only be controlled through an app, but not maintain the app to the point it does not work on apple devices and it’s not available due to the version to install on android. How is this even allowed in the App Store… ### 1/5 — Ridiculous! *2023-05-19, version 1.1* For the amount of money associated with this set up, having a” controller “, that is absolute crap is unacceptable!! Ive purchased several items from oracle and the quality is weak! I have full underbody glow, glow tie, led rims. And having to physically unplug the battery in my car just to get the system to shut off stupid! One moment all is fine, have 2 bc1s. Registers both, great, turn on, make my rounds, get back home and wouldn’t you know I no longer have the controllers!! Smh hard reset, in-install app, yadayadayada…. Still nothing, great product oracle! (Sarcasm) ### 1/5 — Trash *2022-10-25, version 1.1* Do not buy color shift line with intent to use the app… it doesn’t work. Oracle has lost so much quality credibility in their products I’ve purchased, would opt for competitor like Quake if I were to buy again. ### 1/5 — Ok *2022-09-05, version 1.1* App won’t show everything on my iPhone 13 mini. I use it on my iPad and it will show it all and work better. Still not a very good app. It works ok. The lights are amazing but the Bluetooth controller doesn’t work very well. It’s a hit or miss . Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn’t. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — They work perfectly y’all read Below *2023-06-16, version 1.1* They work perfectly fine you just have to download the app they have suggested to use them with on oracles website which is MAGIC LED!! ### 5/5 — Wrong app *2020-04-29, version 1.1* If you are trying to use this app and it isn’t working chances are you need the magic led v2 app. It works 100% of the time. I read the instructions wrong when I bought my lights. This isn’t the right app. ### 4/5 — Works for me. *2022-02-01, version 1.1* I was very skeptical of this app as it has so many bad reviews but it works exactly how it is supposed to for me. The only bad thing about it is that you can not create custom color patterns. Meaning that you can’t decide the colors that you want it to cycle through or choose 2 specific colors to alternate. Other than that it works great for me. ### 4/5 — Good, but help *2020-07-25, version 1.1* Headlights work great but when I start my car even if theyre set to off, they’ll start up in color fade mode then i have to manually reset it. Fix?? ### 4/5 — Works, could use better features *2019-05-11, version 1.1* The app does what it advertises but I wish you could change each halo separately or at least change each channel ### 3/5 — Meh… *2022-05-17, version 1.1* It works but leaves much to be desired considering it’s the only app option for these lights. It’d be nice to be able to rename the controllers (instead of their MAC addresses) within the app so I know what zone is being controlled without having to get out of my vehicle. ### 3/5 — Works, but… *2022-04-30, version 1.1* No issues with it working, just I want to set the colors besides the seven default and the guide shows you can slide up and down the wheel, yet whereas I want Orange, its giving me like a pinkish color instead. Ill rate it higher when they update and fix it so when I want Orange or different shade of yellow, I get it ### 3/5 — Oracle Multicolor LED & Halo Lighting *2021-08-02, version 1.1* Have been using the Multi color Halo and LED since late June 2021. Overall pleased with it despite some quirky behavior. (1) the halo “white” is really more of a cyan color; but could be due to the multi color options where the color “white” is skewed? (2) the Fade capabilities and adjustable fade timing is a nice feature, but sometimes has a mind of its own; and definitely not something you want to use while driving due to different state laws (here in FL your not permitted to use the colors BLUE nor RED, and LEO’s frown on the use of anything else but WHITE) (3) recently Apple released a new iOS version (14.7.1) on Sat. July 30, 3021 in which has caused a glitch with my Oracle halo lighting as the App has yet to be updated to work with the new iOS version as of this writing on Aug 2, 2021. It seems I am unable to make a halo color selection on the App’s color palette as it’s stuck on only proving a single Fade color that flashes rapidly, and even then, unable to adjust the fade scale for a longer halo fade. I can only hope that the Oracle Lighting developer’s can update their App to accommodate the latest iOS version update; and that this doesn’t become an ongoing issue with further delays. Having left this data software vertical in the healthcare space I am aware these things don’t happen overnight ### 3/5 — Help *2021-07-10, version 1.1* My lights won’t cut off ### 3/5 — Needs updated *2021-03-08, version 1.1* Would be better if the interfaces didn’t overlap. I can’t switch the speed or intensity of the colors because it overlays with other functions on the app screen --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
