## Review summary

Users praise Brightlayer Home for easy setup and convenient remote control when the system is functioning, and some even report quick support responses. However, the majority of feedback highlights chronic reliability problems: scheduling is unreliable and often disappears or ignores commands; devices frequently fail to connect or drop from the network; the app itself can crash or show errors; EV charger support is missing or has been removed in updates; and many users must reset devices or re‑add them after app updates. The app shows potential but requires substantial fixes to be usable long‑term.

### Pros

- Easy installation and quick Wi-Fi setup
- Remote control of lights via the app (when the system is functioning)
- Positive impact for outdoor/holiday lighting and general convenience when it works
- Some users report fast support responses and timely updates that fix issues

### Cons

- Unreliable scheduling: schedules disappear, reappear, or don’t execute
- Wi‑Fi connectivity issues and devices dropping or failing to connect
- App instability with errors or blank loading screens
- EV charger support missing or removed in updates
- Frequent required factory resets/re‑adding devices after app updates
