Lights working ok, app could use help
06/30/2023

Thadjudkins
We really like the lights but have needed to have service out a couple times already for dying zones. Service has been good but I do wonder long term how they’ll hold up. The app is a hit clumsy and has some frustrating, simple errors, for example the login screen isn’t configured as a password prompt so it doesn’t pull up saved passwords, you can’t paste into it from keychain/PW manager, and since it’s not treating the PW box as a password it changes emerge first character to capital so the password always fails. Little things like this make it frustrating and have been there for a year now so it’s not just some little bug that’ll be fixed right away.

The company has been really great to work with. I bought my Everlights on kick starter. It took me a while to find somebody to install them, and since I hadn’t installed them yet everlights exchanged the old lights and controller for the new ones. With the company’s help, I found a great installer and I’ve been playing with the lights for the last week. There are still some bugs with the app, but I know they are working on fixing those bugs. Sometimes I lose connection to the controller and have to do some troubleshooting. That’s why I gave it four stars. Once the issues are fixed I’ll change it to five. The lights are vibrant and beautiful and it’s so much fun to make my own patterns and colors schemes. I highly recommend getting everlights! The company is very open and honest and is really great to work with. And my house is the best looking on the street!

You are willing to try to connect 100 times and also willing to compromise your network to allow it to connect. I have all of my IoT devices on a VLAN and a separate wireless network but I had to dedicate one of the radios on the access point nearest to this to EverLights because it doesn’t support connecting to any networks with an even semi secure password. The fact that the app has so many glaring issues and hasn’t been updated in over 6mo is a joke. Even as a hobby I could do better, get it together guys!!! I wish I had more time to just sniff out what requests this app is making and build a better app/management tool for it. I do admit when it works it’s convenient and nice but after spending more time with LED arrays and both home brew raspberry pi controllers and my AlphaPix controller I’m about ready to just ditch the EverLights controller. Which is sad because it has its place but I can’t even use it half the time without resetting and connecting it. Also the support link provided in iTunes doesn’t exist.

**Update** They replied saying it sounds like I have an older version with an invitation to upgrade! I haven’t even had them 7 months and have the most up to date version. Updating my review to one star instead of two for the ridiculous response to my concerns in this review and because they deleted my comments expressing concerns on their Instagram page instead of addressing me directly. We occasional have sections of lights that aren’t on the same sequence as the rest of the house but my BIGGEST complaint is the terrible outdated app. I wish I had gone with a company with a more user friendly app. It’s very difficult to create your own sequence and they don’t add new pre-designed sequence options to the app. There are only a limited number of sequences to choose from. How hard could it possibly be to hire a professional to create a decent app? For such an expensive product I don’t think this is asking for much!
