Useless! ### 1/5 — Horrible app! *2024-01-22, version 4.4* Horrible! All they try to do is get you to upgrade to a paid service! Constant ads! Will return product. ### 3/5 — Gone *2024-01-20, version 4.4* Not sure yet ### 1/5 — Junk *2024-01-19, version 4.4* Junk ### 1/5 — This app is complete garbage *2024-01-14, version 4.4* This app is terrible, so many trashy ads. Not user friendly at all. DO not buy these light bulbs! Big fat waste of money ### 1/5 — DON’T BUY *2024-01-13, version 4.4* Total bait and switch when you buy a Phillips light bulb connected to this app. WIZ wants $20 to make the app work to where it will add a device and change the color of the light. DON’T buy!!! ### 1/5 — Terrible product *2024-01-08, version 4.4* This app is awful! After more than an hour I still can’t get it to link to a Philips Smart LED. ### 1/5 — Horrible *2024-01-08, version 4.4* So many adds and then they prompt you to purchase a plan and then it gets more confusing. Ended up returning the product ### 1/5 — Garbage app and bulbs - avoid *2024-01-07, version 4.4* Predatory app that’s buggy. Do not buy these bulbs, if you did just save yourself the Troy me and send them back. ### 1/5 — Big scam *2024-01-03, version 4.4* No way to connect the light without paying these people are crooks! ### 1/5 — App Does not work!! Predatory rip off!! *2023-12-31, version 4.4* Does not work with any of my WIZ lights, and paid their lifetime fee for a useless app!! ### 1/5 — App is Trash *2023-12-30* Be warned that this app requires a payment to use…I didn’t want to pay a subscription fee for lightbulbs I assumed I’d be using for years to come, so I opted for the one-time $20 payment… Wish Id known that the app is not really functional before I did that. Bulbs do not stay connected, and getting them to reconnect is hit or miss. Also, even without the connectivity issues and the surprise payments, the app itself is not intuitive or simple to use. Phillips has effectively ensured that they will never get my business ever again. ### 1/5 — Scam *2023-12-26, version 4.4* Scam ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — why do i need to pay *2026-01-25, version 4.5* honestly it’s stupid that i purchased a light bulb and to be able to use the feature advertised i need to pay ### 1/5 — Smart led *2025-12-07, version 4.5* Terrible ### 1/5 — Terrible! *2025-03-25, version 4.5* I’m getting SO frustrated.

It pretends to be, then corners you to pay for a subscription. ### 1/5 — Don’t download. You can’t use unless purchasing *2024-10-26* I couldn’t even connect it to my light bulb until I purchased one of three plans. I paid and then after that it didn’t even connect to my light and wouldn’t connect at all. I get screwed over twice in one day first by Walmart and then by these people. ### 1/5 — Hard work to install. *2024-04-19, version 4.4* I wouldn’t buy this. It was a gift. It keeps pushing purchases and is privacy invasive. ### 1/5 — trash *2024-03-25, version 4.4* this app is a joke too many ads it wont let you do anything ### 1/5 — What has the world come to *2024-03-20, version 4.4* Imagine buying LED lights and installing them just to find out you have to pay to manually change the colors. Ridiculous app. ### 1/5 — Beware Scam *2024-02-25, version 4.4* This app is a scam it charged me $21 & then another $76 and it doesn’t work, this is a waste of time and getting over on people!
