Reviews

I liked the previous version better
GiraffeGroupie

The previous version had multiple flash options which worked for me since I am a night photographer. This version only has one flash option and it doesn’t even flash, the light just stays on. The strobe option is cool but it’s not useful to me at all. Please bring back different options for flash length.


No walkthrough
Corbinviper

There is no walkthrough on how to do anything with this. You download it and it is just a camera app. No menu, no “how to connect”, just a camera app. If you press a button on the cube though it will prompt you to register the cube. Still not sure if I did that right. The auto populated field had a different number than my serial number but it never asked for the serial number so I guess that will be it? Who knows. They need to better control their introduction process. Remember, first impressions are big.


DOES THIS APP ACTUALLY WORK ??
SoundBoyStudios

This App doesn’t seem to work at all. There are no controls. No options. There is just a different colored camera. ZERO LIGHT CONTROLS OR SETTINGS. Can anyone explain how this works ??


Simple enough, but
weezimp

It does lack instructions but I found it easy enough to figure out by trial and error. It is basically another camera app that can talk to Lume cubes. Good for an off camera flash option for iPhone. Slow, though, your subject needs to be prepared to be in the light for about a full second. One nice thing is the ability to drive the cube(s) while setting exposure. What is sorely missing is access to iPhone X features like telephoto camera and portrait mode.


Not compatible with iPhone SE
Red Oak Studios

This update renders all features useless when used on an iPhone SE, iPhone 5s, and iPhone 5. There’s also no option to downgrade. The cubes can (in theory) still be used with the two button interface built into the unit; however, due to overheating issues and extremely short battery life it is difficult to get a single shot off before running into issues with the lights malfunctioning and sporadically turning off.


Dead in the water

After the new update my lights won’t connect. They still work on a borrowed android device, but not on my iPhone. Help

Mi videos and pictures are better with this awesome light and the app works really good!! Thank you!!


No light adjustments
Carjunkie

I’m a Kickstarter and am happy to finally get my 2 Lyme cube Airs. As for the app, It’s just another weak video app. I was hoping to be able to adjust the cubes light output, have a flash mode etc. I removed it from my phone for now. Hopefully they can work on the app to make it more useful.


Product probably good; App & support poor.
MulberryMan

The Lume Cube is probably a good product but instead of offering just a tiny bit more detail in the instructions that come with it, you end up having to go to their website which is almost as confusing. They do a good job of convincing you to download this App which supposedly has you sign in and register your product. Did not work for me - all I have is a photo / video screen with a mysterious blinking logo that doesn’t respond when you click on it. Navigation on their site is poor. Someone needs to go back and finish their Marketing degree.


Glitchy! Hopefully gets better
TIMP024

After paying and waiting over a year to get, to have the App not be constant is so disappointing. Not sure it’s worth the money anymore, with different lights being a lot less money. Sorry, I wanted this to be amazing! But guessing that’s why it has its own app.
