However, many face recurring problems with the Android app, including frequent crashes, slow or unstable Bluetooth connections, and intrusive location permission requests. The app's limited features and connectivity issues lead to frustration, especially as disconnections turn off lights unexpectedly. Poor customer support and delayed bug fixes exacerbate the experience. Although the hardware concept is liked, the software problems significantly impact user satisfaction, making the product difficult to use reliably. ### Pros - Simple installation and user-friendly interface for initial setup. - Offers a variety of colors and lighting styles with good wiring harness quality. - Strong adhesive tape works well when applied correctly on a clean, flat surface. - Allows grouping and controlling different zones of lights. - The product concept and design are appreciated by users who experienced working units. ### Cons - App frequently crashes, especially when adding new devices or controlling multiple lights. - Bluetooth connectivity issues: slow pairing, losing connection on phone sleep or calls, inability to maintain stable connection. - App requires location permission without clear justification, which users find unnecessary and intrusive. - Limited app functionality: minimal options, no offline control, inability to control lights when app disconnected, disconnection causes lights to turn off. - Poor customer support and delayed updates to fix bugs, leading to user frustration and loss of control over lighting system. ## Similar extensions and apps - [LEDGlow Automotive Control](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.seeblue.ledglowv2) — 107,213 users, 3.92 / 5 - [Car Light](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.ttcble.light_zhuoye) — 9,511 users, 3.45 / 5 - [Colorful Smart Light](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.findn.lszm) — 12,588 users - [LEDSmartLight](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.oecore.custom.mingjia) — 248 users - [M Light](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.qunchen.headlight) — 41,778 users, 2.59 / 5 - [TST LED](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.lcwl.tst) — 7,097 users - [LED Controller: Smart Light](https://chrome-stats.com/d/led.controller.smart.light) — 810,995 users, 3.87 / 5 - [T-Lighting](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.ngocthai.tlighting) — 30 users - [Smart Light (Kuray Soft)](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.myasinkuralay.smartlight) — 420 users - [Nova Auto](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.sjty.nuowo) — 4,057 users, 2.35 / 5 - [Driver Light](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.findn.driverlight) — 4,618 users - [LED Light Controller Smart LED](https://chrome-stats.com/d/jay.ranc.ledlightcontrollersmartledsmarthome) — 2,801 users --- Source: [Chrome-Stats](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.types)
