Review summary

Users appreciate the app's multiple lighting modes and user-friendly design, but consistent Bluetooth connectivity problems significantly undermine functionality. Many reviewers report frequent disconnections requiring fuse pulls or app restarts, broken widget features, and limited control over multiple lighting channels. While customer support is responsive in hardware replacement, software issues dominate user complaints. The app needs urgent updates to stabilize connectivity, enhance features, and improve overall usability.

Pros

User friendly interface with multiple lighting modes to choose from.
Good basic app concept with interesting features like music syncing and RGBW control.
Supportive customer service, replacing faulty hardware when contacted.
The app is generally well designed for those who can get it to connect properly.
Heavy duty connectors and mounting tabs included with the product.

Cons

Frequent and persistent Bluetooth connection issues; the app often fails to detect or maintain connection with the device.
The widget functionality is broken or unreliable, especially after updates.
Users often have to pull the fuse or restart the app to fix connectivity or turn off lights.
Lack of independent channel control for multi-connector RGBW controllers.
App crashes and needs constant restarting to work properly, especially after the phone sleeps or goes inactive.

2023-04-24	Sa*****	App works ok for the most part. The issue regarding pulling the fuse out in order for the app to reconnect was never addressed. The latest update on 4/12/23 broke the widget. Please fix.

2023-03-11	Er*****	Overall great, simple app. One thing I would like to see added is an option for a constant phone notification whenever your lights are on. Mine are connected to my battery so they will stay on even if the car is off. The notification would be helpful for people (like me) that sometimes forget to turn off the lights.

2022-09-02	Ky*****	I love the idea and love when it works, but the app just seems like it doesn't work about 75 percent of the time. I'm at a car meet right now and can't show off my demon eyes because the app doesn't want to detect them. I restarted my phone and still no luck. Update 2 years later: It's still a garbage app! My demon eyes are stuck on again and I can't use my headlights with them or according to the instructions I'll burn out my demon eyes. Fix this damn app please!

2022-02-22	Ro*****	First one stopped working right away. Contacted company and they sent me a new controller. That was great. It worked for maybe a couple of weeks and stopped working. Now It is stuck on green and I haft to pull the fuse to shut it off. I am so disappointed in this product.

2021-12-01	Jo*****	App works great when it actually finds your device. I have to constantly pull the fuse from my car in order to shut my lights off because the app isn't finding the device. Once I put the fuse back in, that is when it picks the device up. I would like to buy the interior lights kit but if they can't get the app right then I'm not going to even consider it.

2021-08-31	Sh*****	Cool features but the app is garbage. Needsore bugs to be fixed. Won't refresh if it doesn't pick up signal. I've tried every thing the offer to do to fix the issue and none of it works.

2021-06-30	Ju*****	App works well overall. I wish it would use the dedicated WHITE LED chip when using the color changing modes and user custom sequence modes but unfortunately it uses the RGB chips to create a bad example of white.
