Ratings and reviews

For the first 6-9months, all worked well. In the past 6months, the app has been frustrating. As other people have commented: my scenes keep getting deleted. This causes the schedule to not work, either... In addition some, but strangely not all, items on my schedule seem to get switched on and off at random. This is disappointing and getting very frustrating. If not fixed in the next month I'll be switching to a different brand.

The app has some things going for it like ease of use but definitely still has some issues. I've already contacted Bulbrite with my request for help and am currently awaiting reply. The issues I'm having is like others to where the scenes I create disappear. Create scene, then create schedule to use that scene, then go back to the scene tab to review scenes and the scene has been deleted. The other is a suggestion for updating. The temperature and the brightness adjustments have a slider scale and a 5 preset radio buttons for selections. If you wanted to make the brightness on multiple bulbs to say 3%, this is hard to do as you can't tell exactly where 3% is. Interestingly, the amazon Alexa app lets you do this to this granularity.

Update: 11/20 dropped to 4 stars because the app still hasn't been updated to allow you to stay logged in. A basic function that shouldn't have ever been an issue & should have been fixe. I followed the instructions, and found everything worked flawlessly. I had 0 issues connecting the bulbs, and 0 issues with the app. The setup went without a hitch. The app is easy to use, and just works. Update: Seems to be a bug where the app doesn't stay logged in. I've had to re log in at least 4x already.
