It’s a thing that exists

It’s not a bad bulb, the colors are sorta vibrant and bright. However, the music and shake features do not work, or if they do, there are no instructions on how to use them. Other than that it’s pretty ok for the price.
Too Dim
Jamiel1234567890
This light could be cool if it were bright enough to light the room. This is definitely more of a gentle ambient lighting. It is the bulb we have in our ceiling fixture in our bedroom and I was hoping to use the main white for my bedroom light and then switch to fun colors if there’s a special occasion. However, the light is too dim and you couldn’t even fold a load of laundry in this light. I’ve had night lights brighter than this bulb. I do enjoy setting it to the dark blue and the magenta colors the best. But another problem is getting it to stay connected. Once I turn it off, it’s rare that it turns right back on the next time I go to use it. I have to unscrew and screw it back in to “find device”. And lastly, I’m still curious what the music symbol stands for. It does nothing when I push it. I guess I’ll have to re-read the instruction about it.
Cannot Connect

Decided to buy this for an enclosed-bulb ceiling fan that the pull cord for the light broke on. The app completely fails to detect the bulb, and both this and the Google Play version demand *alarming* levels of access to your phone. Do not buy this for enclosed bulb lights. Probably don’t buy it at all.
Improvements Needed

The bulb works well in terms of brightness, but the change by sound and shake feature doesn’t work. I haven’t tried the timer feature considering that wasn’t what I bought it for, so there isn’t much input I can give on that. I only gave this three stars because of the price for the bulb ($10) and I’m not too disappointed in what I can do with the bulb. The main thing I wanted was to change the color of the bulb and I got that. After finding out about the otjer feature and them not working, it was a bummer but I can live with it until further updates are made.
Needs improvement

Light bulb is too dim, app disconnects from bulb too frequently, very few settings to customize- basically turn it on and off and change the tint. Would be nice if it could be set to turn on or something free at a certain time or simulate sunrise.
Light bulb disconnects from app

Lightbulb disconnects from app with no way of re-pairing without power cycling the bulb. Steer clear until North updates this app ver. 1.2
App is extremely glitchy

The app keep glitches and it keeps malfunctioning. The lightbulb works great but the app is bad.
Smart bulb

Love the lighting for night time doesn’t disrupt my sons sleeping and certain colors are relaxing. White light isn’t bright but it’s ok .
Great bulb,bad app
•yes~or~no•
This bulb has so many beautiful colors. I love how relaxing and upbeat the different colors could be. However, the app is a different story. You can’t swipe to change the colors. Not that that’s a necessity but I think it would be cool and I expected that. The shake feature will not work and neither will the music icon. I also would appreciate if There were more spaces for favorites. In general the idea and colors are amazing, but the app needs lots of improvement.
