No update available

Complete waste of money and time to buy any product from Vivitar that must operate through this app and possibly any app under the Vivitar name. Says upgrade is needed to proceed with setup but one isn't available.

ViviSuck

The only lights that have failed to work. Stopped working. Quit responding. And have an APP that says download new SPP for support but still fail. Bad. Bad. Bad company.

Ask for update

Ones not available. Do not buy

No Update Available!!!!

DO NOT BUY!! This device serves absolutely no purpose if you have up to date electrical outlets in your home. When creating your Vivitar account for set up to link the device to your WiFi and phone, There’s no update that the app calls for before you can move on to complete the install to use the smart plug… and you won’t get any further than that. I don’t understand how Vivitar hasn’t corrected this. Horrible & useless product.

Flawed

I can’t use the app or smart plug because it requires an update according to the app yet no update is available for the app. I will not be making anymore purchases from Vivitar.

No update available

I cannot use without an update but the last update was 4 years ago. They need to get their act together.

Not working !!

Needs update for my camera pic 117!!!

Pile of sh

It doesn’t work, every time I get it figured out the bulb goes on the blink and decides to have a rave, flashing away like a village wrong ‘un.

Does not UPDATE!!

“Your app version don't support the device, please update to the latest version”

This is what it was when it ask me to update the app. The problem is I have the latest version and no update is available

I never write reviews but in this case…

Looks like I wasted my money buying a bulb that is supposed to connect with this app. Hope you kept your receipt..

this is stupid

It’s not even letting me download it *!!!

Did not work

My device does not support app

Rubbish

The last update on the app was 3 years ago and my smart bulb isn’t working as apparently I don’t have the newest version of the app not exactly what I payed for. Fix it

Love it

This app hasn’t had updates but cool noting worng

Not possible to upgrade

Every time I try to use it it shows that I need to upgrade but when I try it just open the app!! Please fix this

???

it's saying that i can't turn my light on because i need to update before. i click to upgrade and it just takes me to the app store where it is already upgraded. sort this out please!! i can't even turn my light on

Problem needs to be fixed

IT SAYS MY PHONE NUMBER IS INVALID AND CANT BE ABLE TO REGISTER, IVE BEEN USING THIS NUMBER FOR AGES AND ITS BEEN FINE

Poor App

Most of the time it’s fine, but when it starts having problems...they are a MAJOR pain! Hard to expand the number of cameras!!

Does not work

I have tried to get the system to connect in my home and nothing will. Very frustrating and pointless.
