I've had this app for years in multiple homes I've lived in, it's awful. Every single day I have go through the process of reconnecting the lights because they just suddenly dont work. I go through all steps, ensure they're on a 2.4 connection, but every single day it does this. I wake up in the morning spending 5-10 minutes reconnecting every light, and come home late from work not able to turn on my lights because "oh you need to check your wifi". It's 2024, we can't figure out wifi connection

Complete horror show to set up. I used this app years ago and it's no better now. Been at it for over an hour now and can't get one light connected. Smart pairing never works, manual pairing will connect one light and then can't control that light as soon as you connect a second. I remember it working pretty well previously if you had the patience to set it up. Can't find the lights, can't connect to the wifi, just one issue after another.

App no longer works properly. I had one bulb, worked great No issues. Then one day after about a couple years it worked so well I bought 3 more bulbs. Now, sooo many issues lately with this app. First the lights were unresponsive, it took days to get them to work correctly and connect. Then they got disconnected again at some point. It disconnects constantly from Alexa. Now it says session has expired sign in. Can't signin. It says can't retrieve user. I uninstalled, installed and still Nothing.

Used for one day, created a room with two lights in it, only one worked in the schedule that was built. Needed two more lights, added them, no wait, tried adding them but the app won't let me in. Have uninstalled and re installed 3 times, only gives me an option to create a home or join a home, neither works with no other option, at a loss at this point.

Update: I deleted & readded my lights and did a firmware update which worked for about 2 days, now it's back to "this light is unavailable". Loved these lightbulbs, just wish they worked. Every time I want to turn on or change my lights I have to close and reopen the app several times, or turn off and on the lights manually, change what WiFi I'm connected to, and even then it sometimes doesn't work. Its always been a little buggy but lately it's been completely unreliable.

The app itself is easy to use. The problem is it doesn't work 90% of the time. the lights are supposedly connected but unresponsive, then they disconnect & refuse to connect again & support is minimal. "let me tell you the same 3 steps repeatedly & refuse to acknowledge that they're not working" They call it a chat but it's not like you're connected with someone who answers in a reasonable timeframe, you will wait for hours. The app doesn't even give notifications when they do answer. -10/10
