WLED Pro is a clean, fast controller for lights running WLED firmware: LED strips, lamps, LED matrices, ambient TV backlights and Christmas lights built on ESP32 or ESP8266. ALL YOUR WLED LIGHTS. IN ONE APP. WLED Pro finds the WLED lights on your home Wi-Fi automatically and shows them on one Home screen. Give each light its own name and icon: sofa, desk, TV, bed and more. SIMPLE CONTROL. NOTHING EXTRA. Power, brightness and color on one clean screen. EVERY WLED EFFECT. EASY TO FIND. A visual picker with a preview picture for every animation, plus filters and search by name. EVERY PALETTE. AT A GLANCE. Palettes are shown as color previews, so you pick by look. MAKE YOUR OWN SCENES Combine an effect, colors, palette, speed and intensity, watch it live on the lamp, save it and play it with one tap. PLAYLISTS Play scenes one after another, each for the time you set. SEGMENTS Split one strip into zones, switch each zone on or off, and choose which LEDs belong to it. SETTINGS AND CLASSIC VIEW Lamp settings are one tap away, and the earlier control screen is still available. ALSO INCLUDED Home Screen widgets, schedules and WLED firmware updates right from your iPhone. Great for room and gaming lights, holiday and outdoor lighting, and DIY pixel LED projects. WLED Pro needs lights running WLED firmware on the same Wi-Fi network. Lamp controls are a paid unlock, available as a monthly or yearly subscription or a one-time lifetime purchase.
