Read full descriptionHide full description
XK TITAN app+controller is an innovative system that completely upgrades the functions and experience of your existing offroad or emergency LED lighting with the following unique features: - 10 patterns including strobe, breath, burst, etc. - 3 zone independent control. - Build multiple presets for various purposes via app, such as off-road mode, emergency mode, on-road mode. - Save multiple favorites to controller and access via switch. - Sensor mode to automatically trigger designated lights for special needs such as reverse or courtesy lights. - Sync light with the music in your phone or the microphone. - Remember where you parked your vehicle. - Universal for all 12V single color LEDs. REQUIREMENTS: XK TITAN controller or light system is required for using this app. DEVICE COMPATIBILITY: - iPhone: iPhone 5 and up. - iPad†: iPad 3rd gen and up, iPad mini and up, iPad Pro and up. - iPod touch†: iPod touch 5th gen and up †: "Find my vehicle" feature works better with devices equipped with GPS. DISCLAIMER: Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life. To provide best user experience, "find my vehicle" feature only activates the GPS in the background for about 10 seconds when the phone is disconnected from the controller. The power consumption is similar to opening the Maps App briefly to find your current location. You can also turn off this feature at any time.
