User Reviews
Pros
- App works on newer Android versions like Android 12, maintaining basic functionality.
- Lights have bright and vivid colors with warm whites, providing a good quality display.
- Custom display capabilities are included, allowing for some level of personalized lighting.
- Lights retain their color sequence when powered off and back on, which is convenient.
- Possibility to connect multiple light strands (up to 12) on one controller box, enabling expanded setups.
Cons
- App has connectivity issues, especially connecting to the controller's WiFi and frequently losing connection.
- Lack of essential features such as scheduling, timers, Google Assistant, IFTTT support, and full smart home integration.
- Limited customization options in the app, particularly in the 'customize' section lacking effects like 'chase' and bi-directional patterns.
- App users must connect initially via 2.4GHz WiFi band, with no clear documentation about incompatibility with 5GHz WiFi, causing setup difficulties.
- The UI of the app is outdated and clunky, leading to a frustrating user experience with difficult setup and control.
Recent reviews
For a pre-IoT smart LED controller app, it still works on Android 12. The UI is ancient but functional, and it permits the advertised functions well enough. Not fancy at all compared to what you can do elsewhere these days, but my LED tree worked perfectly for what it is. The tree doesn't need to message my Xmas list or GPS Santa. I'm good.

Picked up the lights on sale but can't connect to the controller's WiFi. Tried unplugging and plugging over and over again to no avail. The lights are fine but not really getting my money's worth. Glad I didn't pay full price at least.
