Need options to split the lights in half. Or thirds. Also need a chase option where one light changes at a time taking over the color strand. Then the next color chases in. I believe it was advertised this way when I purchased the lights. But there is no way to do this. I have seen these options on other permanent eve lights. If it had these other options for better customization, I would give it 5 stars.

First of all, the color wheel in the app that lets you select a custom color for your lights doesn’t work properly. I’ll have green selected on the color wheel but my lights will be purple. It’s not synced up correctly and makes this rather frustrating. Secondly, this app leaves a LOT to be desired. You can’t even custom make your own color themes. You’re just stuck with the ones built into the app and they’re not very good. You can’t even favorite the ones you DO like so every time you want to use one you like you have to go searching for it. I want to be able to customize mine to be purple and orange for Halloween, or just a solid green and red for Christmas. Then there’s the light strand itself. The lights start RIGHT where you plug them in, so unless you have a usb extender cable to plug this into, you’ll have lights starting from right where you plug them in which just looks weird. At least 2 feet of cable before the lights start would have been better. I’ll be more than happy to change this review if the app is improved upon, but as of right now it’s just meh. But I’m hopeful because this product does have a lot of potential.

This app opens only after watching an ad. It wouldn’t load the add at first, which made me think the app wasn’t working properly. So now I just leave the app open all day instead of having to watch an ad each time. There aren’t very many options to choose from in terms of modes. It only uses certain color patterns, but it would be cool to be able to customize these colors to make them fit the atmosphere. There aren’t very many just red and green options either. I bought these to use around the holiday season, so again, either provide us many more options of colors for the modes or allow us to use custom colors.
