Ratings and reviews

All negative reviews about this version are true. One HUGE added feature, that I only discovered by dumb luck, makes it all worth it. SPACESENSE. It allows Wiz lights* to detect motion, so you no longer have to buy motion sensors. WHY they don't lead with this feature, to justify tolerance for the rest of the app's redesign (which can all be fixed in the next version), is a shameful failure of their marketing blockheads. *Wiz lights b4 2021 (which all of mine are) can't make use of this feature.

Not a fan. The new layout leaves much to be desired, and having "insufficient access" error to turn a light on... off-putting. V1 has it's issues, but it's better than this. I would suggest focusing efforts on perfecting the original instead of putting efforts and resources into this.

Broke my Lights The initial install was fairly easy and that was able to get them working with Alexa with no problem. Later, I was prompted to download version 2 and I'm pretty sure that somehow broke my lights. They no longer sync to my Alexa app and also won't sync to the version 1 app on my daughter's tablet. Even if I got V2 running again, it's not supported by Alexa like V1 is. The Govee and Amazon basics lights I installed today(at the same time) are still working and synced fine.
