✓ Finally a timer that I can control with my phoneI had a timer that you plugged into the wall but the outlet was behind the couch and with daylight savings I had to pull the couch out every few days to adjust. I found a HomeBrite bulb that did not require a 'hub' which I did not want for one light to be on a timed schedule. Initially, I could not get it to work as others above stated but I called to company and between Cisco and Mike we solved the problem. If you download your app to 2 devices, make sure you only have one app on ONE open when using or making changes. I had both iPhone and iPad open and the bulb didn't work. Overall extremely happy that I now have a light on a timer without needing to move furniture around. I am inspired to buy another bulb for another room..Version: 1.0.6
✓ Just get itI just get it today on clearance at my local Home Depot . Didn’t read the reviews before ( maybe was better like that ) because I’m so please about those light bulbs! I bought 2 for my bedroom and took me 3 min to set them. It was hard to download the app since didn’t download directly from the app and I have to go throw the web page. After I install it works better and is easier that the ones I have downstairs that I’m spent 5 times more! At least works great to me now and also I can put a timer! Great deal..Version: 2.0.0
✓ Go buy this now!I found these bulbs at Home Depot for only $12. I was skeptical thinking that this product was too good to be true at this price point. I bought three to test them out on my exterior lights. I had them set up and installed within 5 to 10 minutes. Everything worked exactly as described. I was able to turn bulbs off and on from my phone, dim the lights from my phone, and set up a schedule. My only complaint is that the app is a little bit less than intuitive when setting up groups. So far so good I'm going to go get more..Version: 1.0.6
✓ Great app and bulbsI bought my 1st bulb last January and fell in love with the features. I’m a techie guy so I love anything that I can do from my phone. I’ve since bought 3 more bulbs, 1 for the dining room, 1 for our bedroom and another for our daughters bedroom. The best part is that you can leave the light off and when you’re outside your door you can turn them all on before entering as long as your WIFI signal reaches that far..Version: 2.1.0
✓ Great bulbsThese Bluetooth bulbs operate perfectly. Resetting them every iOS update is required. Quickly turn light switch Off/On every 15 seconds for 1 minute then bulbs work perfectly. I’ve been using the bulbs for years & no issues..Version: 2.0.0
✓ Works just fineI like the other reviewers, I have gotten this app and the bulbs to work just fine. It takes some figuring out but once you figure it out, it works great. If you have trouble, reset the bulbs and app and start over. I just wish there was a way to incorporate sunrise and sunset times into this to turn the bulbs on at sunset and off at sunrise without having to manually go in and change it..Version: 1.0.6
✓ Awesome lil big light with useful featuresThis was actually a very worthy purchase, although there are a couple app bugs, but overall very satisfied! Perks: • Turn on and off your light from your bed • Dim and adjust from afar • Set a timer if you tend to fall asleep while reading like me. • Schedule on/off intervals through days/weeks • Add additional bulbs around the house and name/label them all with photos Bugs: • Sometimes finding the connection between your phone and bulb can take a minute. • If I leave the house for a week (I do for work) I’ll come back and the lights are on, even when I have them off or programmed for different times. I think this has to do with the Bluetooth being completely cut for long periods — something tells me having an in house iPod with the app would fix that. Haven’t tested this, but it seems a bit inconvenient. But I feel like these issues are fixable! And If so it would make this a flawless, excellent purchase..Version: 2.1.0
✓ Works as advertisedI was going to buy an expensive wakeup light until I saw this thing. For a basic smart light it works pretty great, this isn’t on the level of a hue or wink smart home set up but for my dorm as a wake up light it works well, probably going to buy one or two more so it brightens up the room a little more. Wish there was a bulb with a higher lumen output.Version: 1.0.6
✓ ?I bought these light bulbs (2) several months ago and have been very happy with them. My neighbors bedroom is near my garage and thus I didn’t want to leave lights burning when I was not home. I stop at the end of the street, turn them on with my phone, drive in and turn them off. Why do I need to update the app when I don’t currently have a problem and according to the comments, I might have if I update?.Version: 2.0.0
✓ GREAT customer serviceYes, the update in late November bricked the app on my rather old iPhone. But with the help of a wonderful customer service rep, got everything working on my newer iPad. The key is deleting the app and turning off the iPad, reinstalling the app, then a hard reset of the bulbs: 5 cycles of 18 seconds on and one second off before having the app rediscover the bulb. Thank you Cisco!.Version: 2.0.0
✓ Works just fineI saw this at the store and purchased. If I had read the reviews on the app first, I probably never would have bought it. But since I did, I gave it a try anyway to see for myself. It works great. Either I got lucky or people must be turning off their light switches making the app unable to operate the bulb. App installation was fast. It immediately located the bulb. You can set different bulbs up in groups to operate on the same schedule. Literally within a minute or so I was operating the lift and had a schedule saved. I was very reluctant to buy it thinking this was going to be another gadget that didn't work good. I can turn the light on and off or dim from my phone. Yes expensive but not really when you consider the features. I only got one to test. Now I am going to get a few more. Works great for table lamps. I don't normally give long reviews but I thought it was necessary here. Seeing so many bad reviews, I was thinking the few good reviews were probably not true. I am very pleased..Version: 1.0.6
✓ Better than reviews and cheaper than othersI was frustrated after 15 minutes of trying to get them to connect but reset my phone and Bluetooth and then it found all 5 of them. Have 2 in and 3 in kitchen that I always forgot to shutoff. Now I just hit the button on my phone. I wish they had a daylight option id replace 10 more bulbs if they did..Version: 2.0.0
✓ Still works well for meRunning iOS 10.2 on iPhone 6. Can install latest version and control bulbs. Was able to restore/sync config with iPhone 5 also running iOS 10.2 and control the same set of bulbs. (It does have the limit that more than 1 bulb to have multiple phones controlling same set.) Maybe folks having issues are running an older version of iOS? I have also encountered situations where a bad bulb can also cause the app to fail to “find the mesh.” In that case, I found the bad actor by turning them off one at a time then I just returned the bad bulb to the store for exchange..Version: 1.0.6
✓ Quick to install, easy to useFound this at the store and for not a lot of money I now have smart lights. Set alarms and timers with ease and even dims! Super cool product, no problems so far with the app! Not sure why app has such bad reviews. I really recommend this product if you don't want to have to buy a hub..Version: 1.0.6
✓ Best investment for waking up on time!I use the scheduled timer for my light bulb along with a regular alarm clock. The app works flawlessly! I love it and its awesome I get to dim and brighten my rooms lighting, adjusting the lighting to the time of Day really helps. At night I keep the lights low and it’s easier to fall asleep. In the morning when I’m trying to wake up for School, the light slowly turns on .; making the transition from sleeping to waking much smoother..Version: 2.0.0
✓ Quickest Home Setup!This was super simple and within 30 min I had 5 bulbs set up, 3 groups made, dimmer settings completed for all, and set schedules for each group in my two story. No WiFi needed but you do need at least 2 bulbs to “mesh” and be recognized. I can control everything from my phone and it even works with my Alexa!! Found these marked down to >$7 each at Home improvement store and bought all 6 left!! Best deal so far!.Version: 2.0.0
