### 1/5 — Turn On or Off

*2018-12-05, version 1.3*

No option to turn on light or turn off from APP

### 1/5 — Worthless

*2018-12-03, version 1.3*

No help on how to set it up in manual or app. I can’t get my light to show up on my phone at all and there’s no other instructions then downloading the app so help would be nice.

### 1/5 — Light bulb issue

*2018-02-03, version 1.2*

Light bulb stopped working after a while. Now I can only use the regular light.. I neex a solution asp

### 1/5 — music

*2018-01-02, version 1.2*

it shows all of my music from my apple music onto the app in the music section but there’s absolutely no way to actually play it, it just won’t play at all

### 1/5 — No on/off button

*2017-12-30, version 1.2*

Really. No on off button support    How are supposed to shut it off .  No multiple user support. Only plays the first song of my play list.   Over and over

### 1/5 — Music function is almost useless

*2017-12-26, version 1.2*

The app doesn’t use Apple Music but rather provide its own player that is extremely primitive. It sorts all your library alphabetically by song title and allow three modes: in that order, randomly, and the same song. That’s it, no albums, no artists, no playlists. It can use iPhone microphone to control light intensity according to the ambient sound level but only if that sound is produced by another device so you can’t run any other music player on you iPhone and use its output in that mode either.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t connect

*2017-12-03*

Bought bulb from TK Max doesn’t connect to phone.

### 1/5 — Can’t hook it up

*2023-01-02, version 1.3*

I turned on the Bluetooth settings yet it still won’t hook up to the lights don’t buy this app

### 1/5 — Make sure you read the DIRECTIONS

*2022-02-05, version 1.3*

Despite what logo and name the box provides, you need to download a different app called “Smart life”. NOT “smart gear”. Then maybe your light will work.

### 1/5 — Dump it in the trash

*2021-09-28, version 1.3*

Bad product, really bad software, no integration whatsoever. Do yourself a favor,  dispose their lights at your nearest dumpster and delete this app.

### 1/5 — Need Advice

*2019-06-28, version 1.3*

You cant change the colors its only the standard yellow color. Need advice!!!

### 1/5 — Doesn’t use my music library

*2019-01-06, version 1.3*

The app is really cool, being able to control the lights and all. The main reason I got these lights were so that I could stream music from them and have the bulbs change color at the same time. This is not what’s happening. The music doesn’t even connect with the bulbs so that they are a speaker. Just plays on my phone.

### 1/5 — Colors

*2019-01-05, version 1.3*

The colors aren’t changing it can only have the standard yellow color. Help?

### 1/5 — HELP!

*2018-12-22, version 1.3*

Not able to control the light bulb. It just keeps changing colours and the app in unresponsive!!
