Ratings and reviews

Connection was fairly easy for the light bulbs and the hub. I did have one of the bulb kicked off and now cannot reconnect it. I haven't put much time into it but simply clicking the light on and off did not reset it. I don't see a reset button. I got a scene switch as well and it was quite a challenge to set up. Apparently, I just had to focus. It's been working since. FastCon broadlink devices do not work with this app in my experience.

So far I've had zero problems and I'm impressed with "fun" features they've added like a music player that changes light colors to the music. And the fastcon BLE Bluetooth Low-Energy bulbs are way, way more reliable than the WIFI bulbs! Plus having a switch as well is surprisingly nice (and way, way cheaper than witi WIFI-based solutions)

While the app is working all right and I was able to add devices without issue, the temperature sensor keeps switching back to Celcius in the app. In addition, there isn't any support for Home Assistant. The old app supported home assistant and didn't have these issues but the new devices don't work with it.
