## Most critical reviews (9 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — App doesn’t self-refresh

*2023-09-27*

The smartselect app doesn’t show current status of lights after making changes or that a change was made. It only shows accurate status after manual refresh by swiping down. Any moron could have found the bug with minimal testing so it’s likely there was NO app testing before release. The app is an after thought it appears.

### 1/5 — Can’t link to any services

*2023-07-09*

If you see this page, you are using a lower version of the app, please upgrade the app

### 2/5 — Requires bluetooth but never requests it

*2023-12-29*

No way to enable bluetooth in the settings since the app never makes a request

### 3/5 — Wants too many permissions

*2023-08-21*

A bit too aggressive about enabling push notifications, location, and personalization. The app works fine, but I just want to control my lights without being tracked and sent ads

### 3/5 — Inconsistent

*2023-03-14*

It’s great in concept but my triggers fail to trigger maybe 20% of the time which is frustrating.

### 5/5 — Philips smart select

*2025-01-13*

Great product works well. Easy set up.

### 5/5 — First time user. Easy to setup

*2023-11-15*

Set up in less than five minutes

### 5/5 — Easy to use! Works great

*2023-04-16*

I like how you can schedule different outlets to turn on or off at different times, or different conditions, like if it’s raining outside. I have a lamp plugged into one of the smart outlets to turn on and off on a schedule and if it’s raining outside. Works flawlessly for me. FYI, you have to have a 2.4g connection to your modem/router for it to work though.

### 5/5 — Works Great with Power Strip

*2023-03-09, version 1.0.5*

Easy setup and reliable performance.
