Suprisingly fantastic. If you want to set a very specific mood, (and have the time to learn how to set it up), it's extremely handy! Perfect for Dungeons and Dragons nights, romantic moods, and parties. 💜🎈💜 Best free hue color changing app on the market for androids.

wish there was an easier way to change the times and transition times for all the colours at once

It's pretty solid. Though a bit glitchy. Also for some reason. Picking a "Golden yellow" turnes your lights baby vomit green. Red comes off as yellow.... It's pretty clear the color wheel isn't aligned to lights. So getting consistent results is a terrible trial and error challenge.

Top notch. LIFX should hire this fellow and dump their current staff. Their app is useless in comparison. The nfc write tags are a nice touch I will be try that out right away. So cool. I don't usually do reviews but I wasn't able to donate or buy a premium version. Thank you!

Abandoned app. Confusing and unintuitive. Why are there seemingly redundant/overlapping brightness settings?

1 ★, on 2018-09-20
The app is abandoned by the developer. I submitted a pull request to their open source repository to fix some issues and they never reviewed the pull request.
