Ratings and reviews

Can do some cool things, but setting the color temperature is killing me. I had to go into each light seperately to make presets that only apply to that one bulb. Maddening. And yes, I can make presets for groups of lights... but then can only use those presets for them as a group and not the individual lights. It makes no sense. Worst part is sliding the color temp in 5° K increments, so if I want them all at 3000, I slide it to 3005, oops too far I'll go back, oops 2995. Let me type it in!!!!!

worked fine on my iPhone. Android not so much. when it works it does what it's supposed to and the picture is nice. The connection is sketchy. Sometimes it pops right up other times you wait and wait and wait some more. My other devices connect perfectly. I can't even watch the saved videos on the card. I guess you get what you pay for

I don't recommend it if you are actually using it for security. The notifications I get are delayed sometimes as much as 3-5 minutes or more. So, for security, it's maybe too little, too late. I tried all the suggested so-called fixes, updates, etc, and nothing changed. If a person stands there long enough it catches up and then shows real time, but, again, that wouldn't help if it were a security matter. All my other equipment working through the WiFi; seems to work fine.
