User Reviews

The Darklab app is highly inconsistent. A large number of reviews describe firmware updates that brick batteries or render devices unusable, plus widespread connection/pairing and Bluetooth problems. Users also report login/setup barriers and rapid battery drain after updates. A smaller subset note that, when functioning, the app offers useful in-app control of settings (egive) and firmware-update alerts. Overall, reliability is poor and support response is slow, making the app a risky companion to the hardware.

Pros

When it works, the app provides in‑app control of machine settings and modes (egive function, switching from line work to shading).
Push notifications alert you when firmware updates are available.
The app provides centralized firmware management and battery connectivity for Flux devices.

Cons

Firmware updates frequently brick batteries or render devices inoperable (LEDs flashing blue/green/red or power cycling).
Chronic connectivity and pairing problems: the app struggles to find or connect to Flux batteries and Bluetooth drains the battery.
Repeated firmware update prompts and incomplete update flows that lock the app or leave devices unusable.
Login, account setup, and onboarding issues prevent using the app at all.
Battery life is drastically reduced after updates, with reports of only a few hours of use.

Recent reviews

This app was destined to fail the moment Gaston decided to be greedy and put a lock on the powerbolt version 1, claiming it didn’t have the capabilities to be controlled by the app or the bluetooth foot pedal . (When they used to advertise the flux like that when it first got out.) Just for people to buy the new powerbolt. LJack & Alexx” from youtube have already proved the powerbolt v1 has a software lock Shame on you.

This app is always been junk. These people make a lot of money and they can’t even get a good app that works right won’t even let me login always giving me an error. Doesn’t work properly. Do better.

Glad I can change the while more easily, but an equally important thing it doesn’t do is reset your timer, which is also time consuming from the battery. Maybe a way to do that would improve the app function a ton! Thanks
