Beautiful lighting concept but app is primitive and full of bugs. Extremely difficult to name and program light fixtures due to the app’s contestant carousel-like effect of spinning through all available lights—if you have many lights, you can only name them through a roulette style tap, hoping you land on a fixture that hasn’t been named or grouped. Some lights that eventually become available then do not let you program them.

The more lights you have, the worse the effect. Still cannot name or program all the lights on backyard project despite extensive experience on our front yard landscape. Troubleshooting offerings don’t seem to address this issue.

I’ve gone through all of the tedious set-up, naming, grouping, etc (which has to be done all over on every different control device). I’ve dealt with the imperfect, unresponsive interface. But the latest update has really made this more than cumbersome ! I am on iPhone 13ProMax, and when I chose a color, I cannot get back to the previous screen! I have to quit and relaunch the app to chose a color for a different group!

The app sees my devices the it doesn’t! I’m standing within 10 feet of all devices and I can see them. Spent almost an hour trying to change colors on 4 devices. The problem is worse during the winter when I’m trying to change the color pattern to holiday colors. I eventually got them to work but the program is so poor I am looking at other devices that work and are less expensive. I will not and have not recommended these to the many folks who have seen them at my house. I really thought these would be easy to use but the amount of time and rebooting the program is unacceptable. Nice product but lousy operating system and to costly.
