Broken app
The child lock stopped working and they havenβt fixed it in over a year.
Canβt Login
I keep being logged out and when I go to log back in the the login in button is grayed out, even if I choose the forgot password option the button to confirm the account name is grayed out as well. A few months back all the light bulbs stopped working for a week and since then this keeps happening.
Not very good
Frequently loses connection with Wi-Fi, which means that you open the app in your iPhone and youβre wanting to turn on your string lights in the backyard, but there is no response because it is not connecting to the Wi-Fi. I donβt think I have ever seen any app updates. Itβs very frustrating and I donβt recommend buying it. We are going to simply replace the outlet that the string lights are plugged into with this TreatLife utilities, dongle, and replace the outlet with a smart outlet and throw away this TreatLife utilities dongle. We bought it on Amazon. It is our second one. The first one did the same thing. Now this one is doing the same thing. They are not very expensive so I donβt feel terribly bad throwing away the money, but I certainly do not recommend buying them.

Simply not working anymore
This really pisses me off because it worked fine and all of a sudden the app wonβt allow me to turn on or off my lamp, change the colors, etc. tried restarting my phone, restarting app, removing the device then re adding it, literally nothing works. So I guess I just have a useless light bulb now.
Update: it continuously disconnects for seemingly no reason

Frequent resets make them too annoying to use
Sometimes it will be a month before they start flashing again or the color is off, sometimes a few weeks, sometimes a few days. Often I have to log back in, and then it takes forever to re-add each bulb. Concept is cool, app is bad, and I will never use anything from them again.
