### 1/5 — Not connecting

*2026-02-20*

Not sure why. It did 2 years ago when I first tried this app.

**Developer response:** thanks for review , happy you enjoy the app

### 1/5 — Doesnt work

*2025-07-28, version 1.9*

Never ends up conecting

### 1/5 — Just ads now

*2025-07-13, version 1.9*

Used it a year ago and whilst a bit janky it worked. Now everything you click on just brings up an ad and nothing actually happens.

### 5/5 — Best game ever in the whole tire world

*2024-05-18, version 1.9*

The best game ever
So cool
Amazing 
Whoever made this did good work
I love this

### 1/5 — To complicated

*2023-12-24*

The setup should be simple if it works great otherwise good luck

### 3/5 — No support

*2023-08-26*

There isn’t any support for this app. No YouTube videos, no email, no numbers to call. I do like it. It’s better than factory.

### 1/5 — Made unusable by ads

*2023-08-12*

I don’t mind paying to remove ads, but if the application is free with ads, it should at least be usable enough for me to determine whether I want to pay.

The ads in this app are so frequent, so large, and so time consuming, that attempting to figure out how to use the thing was an exercise in frustration. I deleted it within ten minutes.

### 1/5 — Unable to locate the device ID

*2023-07-29*

The first thing the app asks for is which device to pair. I have three sets on three controllers. This app shows the three, but instead of the names I assigned them (Bedroom, Kitchen etc), it shows as “Shapes 43F”, “Shapes B99B”, and “Shapes A560”. How am I supposed to know which is which? Dead on arrival.

### 4/5 — Actually works - unlike the official app

*2022-07-16*

This is an expensive app for what it is - you have to pay twice to make it useable and get rid of some quite intrusive apps. But the official Nanoleaf app no longer seems to work at all (‘read / write operation failed’ errors despite numerous hard resets, redownloading the app etc). So this is my only option. Unlike the Nanoleaf app, this one seems to work quickly and easily, connecting to my lights and allowing me to design my own animations and apply them etc.

### 5/5 — Amazingly creative and just beginning!

*2022-02-07*

This has brought a whole new dimension to my Nanoleaf Shapes. (Note: I have added magnets to my panels on a magnetic white board to allow easy moving of panels.) This app has allowed the further expansion of individual animation to each panel to allow almost unlimited creativity. A new art work can simply be made with almost maximum control of each panel. Looking forward to further updates!  

PS Also using Kami2 app to plan has helped a lot.

**Developer response:** thanks for review , happy you enjoy the app
