Just Awful
Lenny the Lightbulb
I write this review mostly to encourage the company to finally release its new app (which was promised last week) or at least provide transparency as to why it's still unavailable after myriad delays. As previous reviews have indicated, the current app is a clunky, barely-functional mess that unreliably completes its most basic, essential task: turning the lights on and off. 90% of attempts to do so end with only some of the bulbs responding, requiring multiple retries to achieve the desired result. Bulbs regularly lose connection when turned on and off at the switch, prompting a laborious repairing process. The other "experiences" are somewhat-to-mostly broken. The "Circadian" setting functions correctly until the final hour when it gets mysteriously brighter. The "Rise & Shine" feature ceased to work after a recent firmware update. I've never reliably been able to use the "Music Sync" or "Torch" modes. It's a start up and probably a very small team, but if they want to compete against the big boys in this space (Philips, LIFX, etc.), they need to try harder.
Don't know what everyone is talking about?

I have read numerous bad reviews about these lights and the app used to control them. So far with my experience, it has been nothing but pleasurable! There are some minor annoyances with the app but not bad enough to make me regret purchasing them. Being able to turn my light off with out having to get out of bed is worth it in itself. That and the light alarm are my favorite features. Look forward to more!
Love ilumi!

So I was able to connect my ilumi right away. I was having fun changing the colors in my room. I love that you can dim the light. The app has plenty of options to choose from. So many colors! Now as for music sync. Can you please allow us to sync our music from services like Spotify or Pandora? I don't have any music saved on my iPhone. It's the only reason I purchased the bulb was for that music beat feature. Please take this into consideration! :)
App said it would be fully available in May

New app was promised to solve all my problems. Sounded too good to be true and it was. All their marketing in stores already shows the new app. The website up until recently said the app was coming in May. Now it's changed to say beta testing. Had to contact support again. They finally offered up giving me access to the beta, but only since I was a backer on Kickstarter. Told me they sent info about it in March. So, I guess sorry to people that bought the light with false advertising showing the new app already ready and available? Since you're not backers, you can't have what you bought fair and square!
Ilimi review
To being or
This product does not follow instructions when I'm using the app. In addition, the shake feature is useless because it's so sensitive you can't use your phone without affecting the bulb. I certainly like the idea of this product. When I was using only one bulb it seemed to work OK. After I installed the fifth bulb four of the previously installed bulbs began being disobedient to the instructions I'm giving it on the app. One of the bulbs will turn off but then it turns back on again of its own accord. Other bulbs will not turn off or be the color I am requesting. I hope you fix all the stuff because I would like to have a bulb that works the way it supposed to. It's a nice idea.

I have tried two bulbs and many different sockets and the result is that the lights are pieces of junk. Manual reset if the bulbs does not work. This is a joke and should be reported to the BBB but I've wasted enough time on this.
Good interface! Not sure why other ratings are like that.

Good interface! Not sure why other ratings are like that. It works very smooth, very responsive.
Features do not work...

Buy Phillips hue lights. Save the trouble. The bulbs do alright in theory, but do not function as advertised. The music function only allows me to play 2 of my 1,000+ songs, the "rise and shine" schedule feature simply does not work, and also the "torch" feature where you supposedly are able to come close and they turn on and walk away to turn off doesn't work. My lights never turn off. Even after tinkering with the range and walking significant distance away. Basically all these bulbs did for me was change colors when I wanted them to and turn on and off. If that is all you are looking for, by all means.
