### 2/5 — update

*2023-10-16, version 1.7.2*

please update application for ios17

### 2/5 — iOS 14.2 issue

*2020-11-21, version 1.7.2*

Like others, the app kept crashing whenever I upgraded to iOS 14.2. I had to delete app and reinstall to get it to work correctly. Not the end Of the world and definitely a first world problem; but would’ve been nice to not have to reassign all names and groups (I have about 15 of these in the house).

### 4/5 — a party setting would be great

*2017-11-04, version 1.7.2*

I love these but unlike even the simplest color changing bulbs they don’t have a party mode where they would cycle thru various colors on their own. There is so much unexplored potential here and I continue to wait for the day that they update the app and this whole program really shines. But otherwise they 100% meet the basic criteria and the colors are amazing!

### 2/5 — We need color to change automatically

*2016-11-24, version 1.6*

Right now you have to change colors manually, I am looking to program automatically change colors and schedule it.

### 3/5 — HomeKit!!!

*2016-11-13*

These lights are great, but the need HomeKit. I would like to be able to say "Hey Siri turn on my lights" on my Apple Watch they would turn on, instead of me having to go hunt for my phone and use the app to turn it on. 

Otherwise they are great lights

### 4/5 — Not Bad

*2015-08-17, version 1.1.3*

Not a bad app, lacks an array of colors, I don't really like the color dial wish it allowed you to blend colors this app has limited color choices. I hope there is an update soon or a better app with more color options.

### 1/5 — Doesn't Work

*2015-05-16, version 1.1.2*

Bought the Rainbow 7 bulb today. Downloaded app on iPhone 6 and app freezes after start up.  Tried on my iPad and app gets past start up screen but doesn't connect the build. Does not work.

### 1/5 — App does not work since update

*2015-05-13*

Applied the update today, now the app is not working so my bluetooth bulb are useless.
Please help, reinstalling the app did not fix the issue. When I open the app I'm stuck in the splach screen with Rainbow7.

### 5/5 — I like it

*2015-02-16, version 1.0*

It's really easy to use it and I like that light colors

### 1/5 — Crashing

*2026-05-31, version 1.7.2*

It keeps crashing and now I can’t turn the lights on

### 1/5 — 갑자기 어플이 계속 꺼져요 ㅜㅜ

*2024-04-27, version 1.7.2*

고쳐주세요

### 1/5 — Update

*2023-12-11*

When I updated to ios17 it stop working it keeps crashing

### 1/5 — Update

*2023-11-20*

When I updated to ios17 it stop working

### 1/5 — 갑자기안됩니다

*2021-11-06, version 1.7.2*

갑자기 블루투스 연결이 안됩니다

### 1/5 — Needs app update

*2021-02-23, version 1.7.2*

Unable to control expensive bulbs once iOS updated. Developers need to read feedback and update ASAP. 
DO NOT PURCHASE

### 1/5 — Worked fine until iOS 14.3

*2020-12-31, version 1.7.2*

This app worked well until iOS 14.3. Now my expensive color changing lightbulbs are now white bulbs I have to turn off manually. What’s the point of owning an long life LED bulb that doesn’t get an update for over 3 years, thereby rendered useless.

### 1/5 — IOS 14.2

*2020-11-09, version 1.7.2*

Since I updated to IOS 14.2 the app won’t stay open! I can’t use the light anymore please fix this issue 🥺

### 1/5 — Not worth the headache

*2018-11-21, version 1.7.2*

When this app does work it works good, but it doesn't work all the time
1. the light bulb color and brightness cannot be adjusted without this app and on a daily basis some bulbs on the app will read disconnected even though it's on therefore rendering the bulb totally useless for its advertised purpose, the adjust of color and brightness,,,, therefore this renders its functionality to that of an ordinary light bulb that just happens to be economical,,,
2. Customers, being me, demand reliability in advertised function therefore i cannot recommend this product based on the flawed function of the whole product based on the application flaws,,,the app and the bulb go hand in hand
3. i chose these bulbs not only for lum/kelvin ratings but also for the smart control functions because I have macaws and I thought this would a great way for me to take better care of their light needs however if i cannot control the bulb the bulb becomes useless for this,,,,
therefore if iluv can go back and correct what they should have done right the first time, writing a reliable control smart app i'd say heck yea worth the investment but that isn't the case so don't waste your time or money

### 1/5 — Failed!

*2016-05-20, version 1.6*

New version does not allow you to have multiple devices liked to bulbs. For example: if you want to have your iPhone and tablet liked to the bulbs, it will only allow you to link one or the other but not both devices and this goes also for trying to link to iPhones to the same bulb in case you have more than one person trying g to use the app.

### 5/5 — Works great in 2024, almost 2025

*2024-12-22, version 1.7.2*

iOS 17, been working great since iOS 13. I don’t understand all the negative feedback. App and bulb works perfectly

### 5/5 — Fantastic bulbs

*2022-06-15, version 1.7.2*

App and bulbs work great. I have purchased 5 bulbs years ago and everything has worked wonderfully since day one

### 5/5 — Needs help

*2018-10-05, version 1.7.2*

I love this app. It does what it says it does and provides a valuable service. Two things I would like to see: 

Sometimes, I get a “not connected” error when I want to use a device other than the last device used to open the app. 

I would like to see an enhancement of the scheduling possibilities. I want the option to schedule multiple settings. For example, if I could schedule on, dim and off or enter more than one on/off cycle in the same 24-hour period, that would be awesome.

### 5/5 — Fantastic, works perfect with my two smart bulbs

*2017-06-16, version 1.7.2*

App works flawlessly

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2016-08-23, version 1.6*

This would be awesome if there was a setting where the light gradually cycled through the colors  instead of manually changing.

### 5/5 — Perfect!

*2016-03-29, version 1.5.2*

This is the perfect solution when a plain white bulb just isn't right. Needed to add color light to a specific corner of the room and this was a perfect solution to the issue.

### 5/5 — Great

*2016-03-22, version 1.5.2*

Love the bulb, use it every day. Just want to be able to set more than one auto on/off per day and different times for different days.

### 5/5 — Works without problems

*2016-01-07, version 1.5.2*

Bulb is a lil too pricey at $40 on eBay, but still provides nice ambiance. Chive on!

### 5/5 — Love It !

*2015-02-18, version 1.0*

App is working very well. It is plug and play and no mess around. I just moved into an apartment that has no ceiling light fixtures and currently the only lamp in my living room is across the room from the front door. Therefore, when I leave for working in the morning, when it is dark, I can turn the light off from across the room as I exit the front door. Also, when I come home after dark, I can turn the light on before I even unlock and open the door. This is one of the best investments I have made and will be purchasing more of them.And at this price it's a steal. Every other smart bulb I've seen has been near 100$ each with equal or lesser features

### 5/5 — Great App!

*2015-02-16, version 1.0*

I just want to say thank you iLuv for bringing out a great product in the LED bulb and Friends of Rainbow7. It has changed my life for the better.
