Ratings and reviews

The last update was an improvement, but it still has some annoying limitations & confusing language. ETA: When setting up tap to run/automation, the bulb control options are limited to switch/brightness (no option for color or scene) so there is no way to control whether the light is white or colored when it comes on, unless I make sure it is set to that color the last time it is used. There should be a way to select a "scene" when setting up automation.

The app, as well as the device, is impossible to use. I barely got it set up in the first place. I'll admit once I had the light bulb going it was nice. However, I moved (with the same wifi) and now it has refused to reconnect ever again. I have tried uninstalling and even making a whole new account. The device just sits there blinking while the app says there are no devices nearby. Very frustrating and disappointing.

I have had a wifi video doorbell for several years and have NEVER been able to use it bcuz it has to use this poor excuse of an app. I was hoping that maybe by now this would be fixed. Duuuuuhhhhh! Still can't use the doorbell bcuz this won't stay open to add device. It just comes back and has a statement that this app has a bug!! NO S#%T!!!!
