Review summary

Users appreciate the app's functionality when it successfully connects, finding it easy to set up countdowns for Christmas and other events. However, a majority report Bluetooth connection problems, causing syncing failures and errors like BLE errors. Some users criticize unnecessary permissions and occasional inaccurate countdown displays. Patience and following detailed instructions seem key for successful use, but ongoing connectivity issues and technical glitches detract from overall experience.

Pros

Works great when set up correctly and following instructions.
Easy to use for syncing countdowns once connected.
App allows for countdowns to Christmas and other events.
Bluetooth connection, once established, syncs date and time properly.
Helpful customer insights on connecting via Bluetooth and troubleshooting.

Cons

Bluetooth connectivity issues are common; many users report inability to connect or frequent disconnections.
App often fails to sync countdown or changes in date/time don't register.
BLE error messages frequently occur, leading to user frustration.
App requests unclear permissions like managing phone calls, which users find unnecessary.
Projector sometimes displays incorrect countdown days (one day less) and the connection process can be cumbersome.

2021-12-26	So*****	Works great just wish that the countdown to Christmas and more was accessible with this projector @ $40.00 bucks that should have been made possible, I've bought lights that cost less that project and it came with changing plates. 12/25/2021. I've used it for 2 years now.

2021-12-20	Da*****	This does one thing - connect to my Countdown to Christmas projector - and sync the date/time. Ok so you can have it count down to other events/dates as well.
