Loving this night light would be an understatement
I now have six zing nightlight, and I love them! They are the best, there is nothing that even comes close to being as great a nightlight as these are.
I love all the features, different lighting effects & connectivity.
Truly a great device!

Beautiful
This is the best smart night light! I wish you would make more. I only bought 2 :( hopefully you’ll come back again.
Almost useless
Cannot login/register/reset password to an account within the app. Cannot connect the lights to Wi-Fi or “Zing Cloud”. I have had these lights since crowdfunding and they STILL don’t live up to the promises made then. Idk if it’s because of the app or the actual zing software. The website is barebones and the support pages have about 6 total help articles.

Google Assistant integration
Where's the integration to Alexa and Google?
App
App locked in on an email I removed and now will not let me add a new email address
Lots of promise but doesn’t deliver
Buggy app and not terribly intuitive. Light has a lot of functionality, but app doesn’t tap it. One huge bug in the app is that if you set up scheduling to have the light turn on and off at predefined times, one cannot set a custom color. One must use a preset and they are awe full if all you want is a nightlight.
Another big problem is the motion sensor of the light. It only works when you’re right in front of it. We are trying to use the light in a stairway where you approach the light from the side. The light doesn’t light up, however, making it useless as a night motion light as it doesn’t activate until you’re already down the stairs and in front of the light.

Great gift!
Very cool nightlight and features. Even has a sleep feature. Endless colors to choose from and great for power outages. App is a little buggy but the firmware is kept updated with improvements.
Pretty good
I’m not sure the blue light reduction reduces the color temperature; it just removes the blues. Could you please update to have f.lux-like color temperature reduction? Preferably all the way down to <2000K.
Worst app
Always lose connection to the light and constantly fail on firmware update which bricks the device.
Fun.
Cool technology and functional too! Occasionally things are better than promised and this is one of those things! I wish I had thought of this!
It simply works
Easy to use. It works. I like using the motion sensor. The schedule works very well. I wish it worked with Alexa. Love all the color choices.
Zing is awesome
I’ve been a backer from the start up. Zing has progressed a long way. By far the best intuitive night light. Love em.
Zing is the best AI IoT nightlight available!
(I don’t understand any negative comments as this Zing app and Zing AI IoT nightlights works perfectly!) I even use it as my alarm in my house. I had a repair person come to the house when I wasn’t there and the app notified me. That was awesome. And the actual product also works great. It is so colorful and can be set in so many different patterns and brightness levels. I have 4 Zings and they literally know where I’m walking and light up my path before I get there! They really use AI (Artificial Intelligence).

The best night light ever
Yes it is
Useless App
Wow. The reviews don’t lie. This app is utterly useless. It worked for a few minutes, but I’m now stuck on the home screen like other reviewers I’ve read. When I tap on the light icon, it just vibrates like it’s shaking its smug blue head at me.
A couple of observations I made before I got totally stuck: While it’s possible to set several preset lighting schemes, there seems to be no way to actually SELECT the presets once they’re set. Clicking on them only lets you edit them again. So I don’t really know what the point is.
The product itself seems nice. Good colors and light output, although it does seem to make an annoying scratching/hissing noise in certain lighting conditions. I got the product for free because of a professional connection I have, so I can’t complain too much. Would definitely not buy, though, until this app is sorted out.

Not good
Ordered the whole house pack. App is difficult to navigate. Trying to update the firmware on 5 lights takes a very long time and still the lights do not function properly. For the price I’ll just plug back in my other back up, motion activated lights and return these. Needs lots of work!
MANY promises, FEW Truths
I should not be able to buy this at Home Depot when so many Kickstarter Backers have received nothing (except stupid excuses.)
Further, the model at Home Depot has no USB C port, no Alexa or Google Home integration (that lie is printed directly on the box) and there are NO motion notifications, NO Bluetooth device finding ability, NO notifications for calls, texts or emails (which are ALL in their terrible app!)
Why are they expending ANY effort to get a different (garbage!) model in stores when many of the people who backed this and paid to make it happen have received nothing but infuriating excuses?
This thing is a pathetic, expensive scam.

I’ve just started evaluating my Zings
I was a Kickstarter Backer; I received three Zings that I signed up for.
They aren’t frauds: they function as motion-sensing nightlights and power-outage beacons and (when the internal battery is charged) independent, mobile, in-case-of-emergency light sources.
I haven’t connected the individual one or the network, or configured through Bluetooth, but I’ll check back when I do.

Zing night light is a scam buyer beware
Hi
Do not purchase the zing night lights as you will never receive the product. They have conducted a kickstarter and indi campaign and have refused to fulfill orders to the backers of the project. They have also refused to provide any update or reply to anyone on these platforms. See for yourself by checking out their campaign pages. All they did was fulfill a few users and then ran off.

Refund needed
Hi,
I just received my 6 zing device and I need a refund. The product/app does not hold any of my pre-set and I have to reset it every day. The product is not any different from a $5 night light if none of the functions is saved.
