Simple Control Use the App to scan your lights’ pairing code and get set up in seconds, then enjoy your smart light-switch. Remotely turn your lights on and off, adjust brightness (trust us they go BRIGHT), and select your color Scenes from anywhere within your home. Group your lights together for joint control with Group Scenes (because we love a team player), or segment by room to keep your lights as organized as you wish your life could be. Complete Customization Create custom dynamic Scenes by selecting palettes and colors with the intuitive color wheel, adjusting ratios, and choosing animated motions. Try vibrant RGB hues to set a total vibe, or put the “fun” in functional lighting with the whole range of white color temperatures. Advanced Automations Set Schedules to automate your daily lighting needs, from gentle morning light-alarms, to gradually dimming nightly reminders that Holy **** it’s 2AM again, you need to wake up in 4 hours, PLEASE go to sleep. Now You’re Talking Connect your lights with your smart home assistant (HomeKit, Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant, or Samsung SmartThings) and use voice commands to control them hands-free.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Nanoleaf at 4.2 against Kill Team's 3.6. Nanoleaf also leads on ratings volume (45K vs 86) and iOS requirement (15.4 vs 17.0). Kill Team's advantage is review sentiment (47% vs 17%). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Nanoleaf holds the better App Store score, 4.2 against 3.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Nanoleaf has 45K ratings behind it against 86, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 17% of Nanoleaf's written reviews are positive against 47% of Kill Team's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Nanoleaf ships an update every 2 weeks, Kill Team monthly. The most recent releases landed on October 23, 2026 and October 21, 2026 respectively.
