IT ALWAYS CRASHES!

There is rarely a time that I open this app and it works as it should. Every time they do an update I can’t connect to the gate way. How a company as big as IKEA can’t get an app to work properly every time is beyond me.
Half and half

Sometimes the light dose not function all together .. when I switch them off or on some of them do.. I need to do it lots of times to close all of them at once
Bizarre experience!

There’s no indication how this app works with the TRÅDFRI gateway. No where prior to the setup I got an indication that I need to have a dimmer/remote control/motion sensor/wireless switch to proceed further in the app. I am stuck on the choose your device screen because no one told me I need one of those. This screen should at least have an option to skip or access the menu, which I can’t. From the gateway literature, I just thought I need the app or Alexa to make it work with the TRÅDFRI lights. Do I have to call ikea or go to the store again to figure this out?
Terrible

My review used to be 5 stars, until I moved. New house, everything worked but the bulbs were in different rooms. I removed he bulbs from the app, and wanted to pair them with a different steering wheel. I couldn’t pair them, and read about the light switch toggle 6 time trick to reset bulbs. Guess what? You can’t reset them. Look on the internet, tons of complaints. You can reset and pair the white bulbs, not the 3 tone bulbs. I took the bulbs back to ikea, and they did replace them. Hopefully they fix the issue before I move again. Don’t use these bulbs in a kids room where kids are likely to flick the light switch, this resetting the bulb and I can’t re-pair. Lame.

Desperately need to update this app to make the wireless control outlets (power outlets) compatible with HomeKit. The lights work great but huge opportunity to finish the job and extend compatibility across the entire smart range you sell.
Not the app, Gateway disconnects

App is OK at best. The real problem is the Gateway disconnects at least once a week
Great purchase

When I first bought these bulbs it took me forever just for the bulbs to show up, but I noticed after the bulbs were connected, they automatically begin a software update. Once the update is finished for the remote and the bulbs, they pair easily and show up in HomeKit right away. I love these bulbs and I also recommend the Tradfri Disco app to get some cool effects.
Unfortunate

I had been using the smart lights for a while and happy with them. So I decided to get a smart outlet to plug a small window ac unit into specifically with the intent to use the “on/off” feature so that it would cool periodically throughout the day to keep my cat from overheating. Set it up easily a week ago & haven't thought about it until today. I’m home, at the time it should have turned on, and guess what? It’s not on. I am really disappointed that I can’t trust this.

App launches connects to the gateway, flashes intro screen and freezes with blue background. Had to delete and reinstall the app to get it to work
Blue screen of death?

App worked fine for months, power outage and all my lights are on after the power came back, started up the app to access the gateway and now all I get is a blank blue screen. And BTW the ‘app support’ button in the App Store conveniently loads the ikea catalog site - great for buying a new bed, not so great for app support.
