First an important tip for those using a light in their bedroom, set the power switch settings to off. I've been woken up from power being restored at night & being woken to a bright light! The bulb works well with the app, Bixby, & Google Assistant, & this app. It is neat if you want to play with the color settings, but as far as just normal usage, I prefer just flipping a switch vs. having to mess around with my phone.

I've had this app for years in multiple homes I've lived in, it's awful. Every single day I have go through the process of reconnecting the lights because they just suddenly dont work. I go through all steps, ensure they're on a 2.4 connection, but every single day it does this. I wake up in the morning spending 5-10 minutes reconnecting every light, and come home late from work not able to turn on my lights because "oh you need to check your wifi". It's 2024, we can't figure out wifi connection

Love it. Simple to use. Never had a pairing issue of any sort or dropouts. I have a mesh router system so maybe people have problems due to their router. There is a problem with their widgets and wifi connectivity but the app itself works great. And no ads or fees. Stay away from Wiz Connected. It is a renamed V2 and total garbage. Read the reviews. Don't buy Wiz if you haven't already. The new app is garbage since inception and you will regret it. Buyer beware.
