### 1/5 — Never works

*2026-03-04, version V2.0.1*

We have this app to control our outdoor light to program on and off times and it never works. It always says network timed out, I can’t make any changes and my light is now on in the daytime and off at night when we need it.

### 1/5 — Do not work anymore

*2026-03-02, version V2.0.1*

I cannot get into my app at all.  It just says network time out no matter what I try!  Do not use this app!

### 1/5 — Login issue

*2026-03-01, version V2.0.1*

Try to login but keeps saying network timeout and won’t log me in. Also I gave this a 1 star rating but it’s showing as 3 stars which is not true.

### 1/5 — Stuck on

*2026-02-18*

I can no longer get into the app. It constantly says network time out, and now my floodlight is stuck in the on position 24/7.    Email the company and no response so now we have to take it down and replace it with a different company light.

### 1/5 — Beware, App no longer works!

*2026-01-12, version V2.0.1*

The only way to control the RGB lights is with this app. The app no longer works. I have 4 of these now stuck in Christmas colors. There’s no switch or remote. Never a warning on app sunsetting. That speaks volumes to how Solla feels about their customer.

### 1/5 — Stop working

*2026-01-07, version V2.0.1*

Stopped working

### 1/5 — Can't use the app

*2026-01-07, version V2.0.1*

Just echoing what everyone else has said.  I can't control the lights, so they are now on whatever settings I last had them on, which is not what I want.  Next stop to the rainforest to leave a similarly bad review.

### 1/5 — Don’t buy any product from China !!

*2026-01-04*

Jan 26: UPDATE- One can no longer control the lights via App .  Lights now turn on in the middle of the day and are on until early morning hours.  Fuvk this product!!! App does not work/ 

May 2025: Every Night one needs to click on a light icon and establish desirable light intensity and color. Otherwise it i turns on with a coolest tone and maximum output. Horrible bug .

### 1/5 — Can’t use anymore

*2025-12-27, version V2.0.1*

Do not buy Solla lights. Their app is broken and they won’t fix it. Now I can’t control my lights.

### 1/5 — App Requires Login

*2025-12-23*

You cannot use the app anymore without having an account. If you have the account there is a network timeout error not allowing you to login. There really should be some kind of way to allow you to use the app without requiring a login.
