## Description

Kichler Connects lets you digitally control your landscape lighting from your smartphone or tablet. Designed to work with the Kichler Smart Control Timer, it offers preset schedules or customizable on/off times that can align with your location, dusk-to-dawn timing, and daylight saving changes for beautifully lit outdoors.

With Wi-Fi or Bluetooth, cloud and location-based control, and astronomical scheduling, you can tailor lighting to your needs. The app supports voice control for smart-home integrations, lets multiple family members share control, works with most low-voltage landscape transformers, and includes on-board memory so your lights stay on even if your connection drops. Quick setup is possible for both homeowners and installers—simply plug in the timer and install the app.

## Review summary

User feedback centers on a problematic iOS app: scheduling is unreliable or unavailable, the UI is slow and confusing, connectivity/setup repeatedly fails (WiFi/Bluetooth and 2.4GHz/5GHz issues), there is no Apple HomeKit integration, and automations can disappear after updates. Hardware gets limited, isolated praise, but overall sentiment is that the app is unreliable and difficult to use.

### Cons

- Scheduling and timer features are unreliable or missing; presets are often greyed out or fail to apply.
- Poor UI/UX and overall usability; the app is sluggish, confusing, and hard to navigate.
- Connectivity/setup problems; frequent failures to connect WiFi/Bluetooth, and issues with 2.4GHz vs 5GHz routing and router changes.
- No Apple HomeKit / Home integration supported.
- Automation can disappear after updates and other reliability issues.
