★★★★★
I have been using this app now for 3 years, and while it's not perfect, it gets the job done. I use it to turn my bedside lights in the morning before work. I am not a morning person, so the lights coming on makes waking up that much easier, especially on dark, cold Canadian winter mornings. My only complaints are that it's a bit slow to respond (not critical); it sometimes has to be restarted if I interrupt the startup process by going to another app; and lack of "dark mode" for the UI. Try it!
★★☆☆☆
I keep having troubles with my Homebrit smart bulb. The latest issue is the app telling me I need Android version 4.4.4 or higher, meanwhile I have version 10. It's been trouble since today I bought it and I don't recommend either the bulb or the app.
★★☆☆☆
Bought several bulbs and app wants Android 4.4 not 10 and closes! Expected more from Feit! Costco should find other suppliers if this company is not serious about the business.
★★☆☆☆
Trash. Doesn't work. Keeps saying i need at least android 4.4.4. Im on 9. Is my phone to smart for Feit's "smart bulb?"
★★☆☆☆
Horrible. will be returning product. It won't let me use the app at all saying I need Android 4.4.4 or higher, yet I have Android 10. My bf's phone actually worked with the app but could only connect to 2/4 bulbs. Trash tier
