Review on 🌈 LIFX 80" Color Zones: Illuminate Your Spaces with Style by Alfred Paiz

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Insanely difficult to set up

When trying to set it up I was forced to use HomeKit, the only problem was that it refused to connect to HomeKit. I've been looking for a solution for hours and there isn't one for this problem. OK. To skip HomeKit setup, you have to wait 15 minutes for the light to turn on to stop searching for HomeKit. OK. After that, I have to use my iPhone (Settings > Wi-Fi) to connect directly to the device. OK. After that, I had to manually enter my WiFi because although it was the strongest signal, the LIFX app didn't offer it. OK. After that, I had to select the network I wanted to connect to. Go to Settings > Wi-Fi, then select the LIFX Band I bought, then tell it to connect to my Wi-Fi network, then switch back to the LIFX app . OK. Ope seems to have encountered an unexpected error after 30 minutes of trying to set up this 'smart' light. This product is rubbish and not worth your time. By the way, at the time of this review, I have the latest version of iOS. Flashlight firmware latest. LIFX didn't develop their own lighting system and it's a shame because after finally deciding to use them a few months later. If only I knew the user experience would be so damn terrible. AVOID AVOID.
