Smart LED Light Remote Control

In fact if you are reading this and downloading the app to use the bulbs, do yourself a huge favor and just return them and get your money back. In order to use your bulbs and have the privelege to be able to actually use the color changing feature on them , you have to be willing to fork over a WEEKLY or MONTHLY subscription. Or you can pay the once lifetime fee which was like 20 or 30 bucks if i remember correctly. All to be able to have the privelege of using your light bulbs that you ALREADY PAID for. That is wild. On top of the app being riddled with ads and not seeming to work very well in the first place. Do yourselves a favor and just get a refund honestly. There are plenty of other color changing lightbulbs out there that dont have you have to pay for the privelege of using them on top of what you spent to get them.

This app comes across as predatory. The lights are expensive as it and they only let you use the app if you pay for it (weekly rates are 4.99 which seems crazy considering all I can do with this is turn my lights on and I already have a home device to do just that). After I’d paid, I tried to use the app to pair my device but it doesn’t seem to be able to find them. They have a video which isn’t helpful at all because the app doesn’t seem to work the same way anymore (in the video, it asks me to add a device and it shows a list of devices. In reality, it just throw an error notifying me that no device seems were detected). I’m confused and lost and really wishing I’d saved the money and just purchased a regular “dumb” bulb.

Would love to love this product more. I’ve had it set up for over a week now, using it everyday, and 80% of the time it isn’t working right away… I’ll spend 5-10 minutes toggling lights and app to work. Once it’s on it’s great; but it is a VERY high-maintenance, expensive relationship… super finicky.
