Led Light Controller Home App Reviews

Do not buy these lights. If you’ve already bought them return them now and look for something else. LedLightControllerHomeApp wants you to subscribe, when you do, you have access to lights for 30 seconds then forgets your subscription and makes you pay again. SMH that there are companies out there like this and doing this to people. Absolutely horrid and they should be shut down.

I see a 75% off Black Friday ad on the apps listing on the all store but I see no sale prices for the service. Also there is a free trial button. Free trial typically means you get to try the full version and all the features prior to purchasing a subscription but I guess the free trial is the limited version which only gives me the full subscription purchase page every time I try to use a feature. If I can’t trust you to pitch an offer accurately and not factually false, how am I supposed to trust you with my money?

I downloaded LedLightControllerHomeApp to see if it was compatible with my LED lights and it wants me to sign up for a subscription before I even able to test it.

You have to subscribe to a service to be able to use LedLightControllerHomeApp and be able to change colors on the bulbs, expensive bulbs, expensive app I’m returning these lights

It’s actually crazy that nowhere does it say you have to pay to use the lighting software on your phone like what this is an absolute scam i didn’t pay 30 dollars to get a 12 dollar renewable subscription on if i wanna change the color of the bulb as the light is intended to do

Constant pop up asking if you want to buy a membership to even have access to the features it offers. I can’t get it to connect to my wifi, which it is right above. I’ve had many different brands of bulbs, this is the least user friendly. I’d rather buy Govee , it was so easy to set up. I will be returning this. I understand why it was half off now.

I downloaded LedLightControllerHomeApp because the bulb box said so. Upon opening it just takes you through a constant loop of solicitation for monthly fees. No way am I going to pay a monthly fee to turn my lights on and off AFTER buying a bulb to turn lights on and off. Even if one chooses [limited use] LedLightControllerHomeApp just continues a never ending loop back to monthly fee pitches. Bought the bulb yesterday taking it back today!

Unbelievable. You have to download LedLightControllerHomeApp to use the light bulb and then LedLightControllerHomeApp forces you to subscribe $13 a month! There is no free version. I’m baffled at why in the world anyone would ever think it would be logical to make a homeowner PAY a subscription to use the lightbulbs they already purchased! Deleting LedLightControllerHomeApp and returning these ridiculous lightbulbs. They are the opposite of “smart”.

You literally can’t even use the smart bulb that cost $14 unless you buy a six dollar monthly subscription or pay $50 for the whole lifetime of use (special offer). This is absolute robbery. I’ll be returning it and getting it an eco-smart, smart bulb. You can connect it to hub space which is free.

Can figure out how to set a schedule, and if you go to the “instructions “ that is useless. The free apps are 100% more useful then LedLightControllerHomeApp. So not sure what their free part gives you because the premium is total junk

Complete scam. No where ok the bulb packaging does it say you will need to pay for LedLightControllerHomeApp or you can literally do nothing. I will continue just to use my Phillips hue hub for whole house and return these bulbs. Complete waste of time and money. I would give no stars if I could.

LedLightControllerHomeApp will not work. When it asks to add a light, you select the option to add Phillips and it takes you to a screen that has a big button for you to subscribe or in tiny words underneath continue to limited version. When you select that it just recycles you back to the select brand screen. I have restarted and tried this process several times, so this is obviously not a bug and is an intended feature. I am not paying for LedLightControllerHomeApp just to be able to turn on a lightbulb.

I understand you want me to get the paid version but what does it even allow me to do? Every single button I click it tells me to get the paid version. At least give me a 10 second show of what the paid version is. As it is I can’t even turn my lights to a different color with LedLightControllerHomeApp, I basically have to trust that it works but after seeing all reviews I find it hard to believe it’s any good.

LedLightControllerHomeApp is a trap. It doesn’t work without paying for a subscription. The free trial doesn’t work. Pushing any icon takes you back to subscription page. No way to add sources without paying for subscription.

Nowhere on the box of lightbulbs did it mention having to pay for an expensive app to use the lightbulbs. Trying to set the lightbulbs up on LedLightControllerHomeApp ’s limited version with ads is fruitless, and worse, infuriating. It simply won’t let you. They take advantage of people looking forward to setting up the cool new features of the bulbs they just bought and scam them into an expensive, ongoing subscription. No thank you. I will be returning my lightbulbs. Shame to GE for getting in bed with this lousy app and for the false advertising on their packaging. Do better.

Unfortunately LedLightControllerHomeApp is extremely glitchy and gets in the way of the working properly (app shuts down several times before I get to even turn lights on or off and when I try to dim).

Every time the lights are switched off they lose their settings when switched back on.
Can’t find any adjustment to force the lights to keep the last setting.
Can’t even leave a review unless nickname is unique from any other user. Terrible app

Glitchy, very uninformative, seems to require a subscription just to link a light to my Google Home Controller. Very poor instructions, and ineffective waste of time and money!!!

After searching for the Cync app for the GE light bulbs, this popped up on top and I didn’t realize it was the wrong one. It requires a subscription. The first red flag should have been the offers. $4.99 per week?! How who would do that? So of course you choose the $49 lifetime subscription. It designed to get the one time payment. LedLightControllerHomeApp is crap and doesn’t give all the features you get out of the official Cync app. The second red flag should have been the 4.3 rating and then going through the reviews and seeing the majority are 1 star. All the 5 star reviews are broken English. I’ve read that I probably won’t hear back from the customer support about a refund, so I’ll probably be trying to dispute the charge

Purchased the six month subscription then decided not to renew only for it to automatically take the money out of my card. So when I decided to at least put the subscription to work and got LedLightControllerHomeApp again it says I’m not subscribed. I’m also now having issues connecting the light strip to LedLightControllerHomeApp which wasn’t a problem before. LedLightControllerHomeApp basically just took my money and I can’t even use it.

Instructions say, “go to the Home page”, “ go to Settings page”, “tap Calibration”. I can find no “settings page” and no options for “calibration”. I have even wasted $5 thinking I guess this company ropes you in for more cash by forcing you to subscribe in order to calibrate your light strip to the TV, but nope - still doesn’t have a Settings page or a calibrate option that I can find. Losing my mind on this!

Ok, it said “download the free app”. And it’s right, it didn’t cost me anything to download LedLightControllerHomeApp . However, it’s not free to use LedLightControllerHomeApp . They gave me hope for a work around, but all it did was walk me around in circles. Ie. Right back to the sign up for your subscription page. Taking the bulb back. I suppose some would be willing to sign up for the subscription. It does have some really cool features that I can live without.

It is terrible that consumers buy a good brand of EXPENSIVE “Smart Lights” and not be able to control them without paying for a subscription. One would think that a FREE App would be available to control the lights after spending almost $200 for FOUR BULBS. I am a fool for wasting that much money for FOUR BULBS that I cannot use without paying a service fee of $5/weekly, $40 every six months, or $60/lifetime. That is very greedy and bad for business. It is an app for controlling the LIGHTS. What a joke!

So, I bought this smart plug and brought it home to use as a timer for some lights. On the box and on all of the promotional materials in the store for this item, there is no indication that you have to pay anything other than the purchase price of the smart plug. However, when you get home and attempt to set it up through LedLightControllerHomeApp , you find out that you have to purchase a subscription. This is nowhere stated on any of the materials that come with the device. You only find out about this after you have already purchased it. It’s terrible service and misleading marketing.

On top of all the other problems I’ve been having, LedLightControllerHomeApp has been telling me that I have no lights connected. They light up as if they are when I first open LedLightControllerHomeApp , but immediately gray out when I try to use a function. It’s been this way for 2-3 months now. Be smarter than me. Do NOT purchase the paid version and return the lights to the store!!!!

It’s an actual scam. You can’t even add the lights to LedLightControllerHomeApp without paying monthly. You’re literally paying monthly to use your light features 😂 don’t fall for it. Just download a different app. I downloaded the manufacturer app for mine. It also comes with all of the “special features” LedLightControllerHomeApp boasts allllll for free. These people are scummy.

When you spend over $100 on a light, they can only be controlled via an app, you IDIOTICALLY think it would be ad free but it’s not. And it constantly disconnects from the WiFi bc you will not upgrade to the “lifetime” app upgrade.
Currently canceling ALL gift orders bc no one else should deal with this.

There are six other brands out there that do not force you to pay money just to turn on and off their lightbulbs. I’m an electrician and work with every other smart manufacturer out there and have used every other brand and or smart technology and this is the only brand that I have ever run into that will not allow you to use the application unless they get some kind of money, all that tells me is this company is a money grad and you’re not able to schedule times you can’t put them on Timers. There is no automation. There is a lot that this is lacking for a application that forces you to spend money used in govee or Gosund treatlife pretty Google home Alexa Siri there’s a lot of other smart technology out there that does not force you to spend money.

You have to buy the light and pay for a app just to use the light it’s a scam. -5 out of 10 I do not recommend!!!! It’s a dimmed light without LedLightControllerHomeApp can’t even light up a small room. TERRIBLE!!! Will not be purchasing any other Philips technology!!!

Their shady. I tried the free version and it will not allow me to I add any of my lights without having to subscribe to their service . That’s false advertising as well as price gauging. You should warn people that you must buy your service in order to participate in your offering. What a waste of time and a download now you have access to all of my personal information and for what!? You can hack into my financial portfolio to find out I have nothing !? This isn’t cool and shame on you.

LedLightControllerHomeApp is a total scam. I bought a smart light set up from a company with its own brand name and App. When I went to searches for it in LedLightControllerHomeApp store, LedLightControllerHomeApp showed up at the top of my search result (did not see it was sponsored search result).

After opening it it immediately went to the subscription options and one of them was "Lifetime" for $49. I went for it with apple pay before realizing this was not the actual app for my light manufacturer. I contacted their support through LedLightControllerHomeApp twice and still haven't heard in days. I will have to dispute the charge with my bank.

Oh and I did try LedLightControllerHomeApp features and connecting to my new lights. It did show as successfully connected but none of the color or scene changes worked...In summary, this was a total scam. Took my money, no response from support and LedLightControllerHomeApp features don't even work. Stay away!!!

I should not have to pay to use a program for a light i already paid a bunch of money for!! As soon as i figure who to report rest assured i will. I bought the because it said you can turn it on an off with a cell phone. So i wouldn’t fall in the middle of the night. No where does it say you have pay to be able to use it!!

i downloaded your app and i have to pay to add one light? i downloaded LedLightControllerHomeApp to turn on my LED strips because the remote wasn’t working but LedLightControllerHomeApp is telling me to pay to add ONE LIGHT like bro what even is the point of LedLightControllerHomeApp then? just add a price to download your app at that point cuz ain’t nobody paying to add one light on a free app

Worthless. Could never get past the incessant ad that wants to sell a subscription to something that it can’t demonstrate actually works.

This is way more confusing than other apps I’ve used and it isn’t working with Alexa as advertised on the box. Plus why do I have to have a subscription when I just want to walk in and say, “Alexa, turn on lights please.”? So dumb.

“continue with limited version” option is not only just ads ads ads but doesn’t even allow turning the light on/off, which it did at first (until I turned it off the first time).

Seems like major mistake to try Hue system thinking the “limited” (free) option would do ANYTHING (like turn it on/off). #fail

Do you have to pay to have LED lights?

Most stuff is paywalled and as others have said it steals your money

You can’t do anything unless you pay for LedLightControllerHomeApp . What’s next? My washing machine as a service.

Make LedLightControllerHomeApp better. Try not to make everyone had to pay to me and that connect to the phone that’s stupid I will never use your app again unless you do that

I can’t connect my lights all it says is are your lights plugged in when they are and the instructions do not help it says easy to access the apps and get set up but it is not and it keeps asking me to buy the subscription not happy about my money I spent on this

Wow
Govee here I come

Very difficult to set up

Nothing works. Incredibly frustrating.

You have to buy it to connect the led to Bluetooth

Took my money and can’t cancel and won’t refund money back

Total scam. Accidentally downloaded this. Does not work with cync lightbulbs like it claims and will charge without creating a profile. It’s a total scam

Cannot get past advertisement on app

I’ve tried to connect my LED lights with LedLightControllerHomeApp since it says to use LedLightControllerHomeApp in the instruction manual, but it never picks up my lights no matter how close I am.

Subscribed and was charged annual fee. Back to home page where I can continue with limited use or subscribe.

I could not get it to connect to my device. You have to have a subscription prior to connection. I requested a refund within minutes of subscription once I could not get it to link with my lights. No refund yet. Not a happy customer.

LedLightControllerHomeApp is disgusting. It constantly asks you to subscribe and the “limited version” seems to do nothing. When I search for my brand (which was listed in the description) and hit “next” it brings up the subscription page. When I hit “continue with limited version” it takes me back to the search with my brand selected. What does this mean? It means there is no respect to the user, and I’m staying far away from LedLightControllerHomeApp.

We got the lights at expensive price and still want to charge

my lights keep flashing rgb and i keep looking an app to change the color. before i even used LedLightControllerHomeApp they asked for a review and it’s $5 a week. $5 a week just to change the color of a light. insane.

Bought the expensive bulbs for outside the house only to find their “free” controller app requires either a monthly fee or an large one time payment. Back to the store they go. I am sick of companies hiding fees. I wish there were a 0 star option or one for 5 raspberries

You cannot even connect your lights without coughing up credit card info and agreeing to a subscription. What a joke.

Never getting these again it makes you pay 13$ and month and no free trial.

What? I just paid $50 for bulbs and get hit for a subscription to use them. And can’t control them without seeing the “offer” to pay $$$ with every click. Sorry. Done. Bate and switch. Would give 0 star if possible.

Both the instructions for LedLightControllerHomeApp and for the lighted tree are for LedLightControllerHomeApp. It doesn’t work

I have had the lights for 3 or 4 years and they have worked amazing the whole time, but my remote has broke so I saw that when I got the box it said there was an app. So o downloaded LedLightControllerHomeApp and you can’t connect your lights unless you pay!! I don’t know what I should do. I may have to buy different lights by a different brand. Please don’t use LedLightControllerHomeApp, it’s terrible.

I personally do not like LedLightControllerHomeApp for every click there is an advertisement and I’m just trying to off my light man

Zero response from anyone and I have NO idea how to cancel the trial.

When you buy nobody prepares you to pay other 50 just for a controller if you want to full functionality of your lights

You pay a lot for the lights, download LedLightControllerHomeApp and they want more money to use what they advertised on the box. I’d return if I could

Cant be accessed at all without paying.. why force people for a small led light to pay subscriptions 🤦🏻‍♂️

Terrible don’t get. Makes I pay more for the light function on your phone

I can’t even connect my lights before being asked to pay for an auto-renewing subscription? How in the heck am I supposed to evaluate LedLightControllerHomeApp ?

This is nothing more than a scam. I’ll bet it wouldn’t even work to begin with. If these developers were honest, I’d be allowed to at least try it before being thrown into some subscription.

And $12/month? Are you kidding me? Absolute waste of time and money.

I bought this Phillips lightbulb, thinking it would be cool if I could control it with Bluetooth and wireless. Unfortunately I tried everything in the instructions and could not get it to work. I wish I could get my money back for the subscription.

After receiving your reply to contact you to speak with someone via email, frankly I wouldn’t waste another minute of my time.

First the unpaid version is very frustrating but getting only removes ads. It has no way to schedule my lights. I have to manually turn them on each time I use them. Install was difficult with small screws. I used wood screws. Attachment barely keeps lights attached. Also I think it could have used zipties. The type I got could not be plugged into each other. That was disappointing. Lights are on I’ll let you know how long they last me.

I wouldn’t mind paying except I want to try it out first. Like why can’t I have a trial to see if LedLightControllerHomeApp even works the way I need it to work. I’m not buying this so that it won’t work and then I will be stuck with a useless app. I would pay, but allow users to try a trial or something.

Not much to do except customize colors unless you have multiple around the house u could control all in app.
I just want to know how the camera is working with the tv no option in app after purchase subscription.

App is not actually free which was annoying, I feel like I over paid by A LOT for how little control I feel like I have for the lights. hard to control all lights with one button to turn them all on or off in a room typically works for most of them but every time I’ve tried 1 or 2 gets left on or off. Can save colors but they randomly disappear where I have to re save a color. Even though I paid sometime when I go to LedLightControllerHomeApp it acts like I didn’t and I have to go to setting and hit restore purchase. The “scenes” I feel like could be better and when you make one you can not delete it and if you make more than 1 and you want to turn it on it turns on all of the ones you made and doesn’t actually change the color of the lights

If the brand of light you purchased is listed as COMPATIBLE, they want $30 for a lifetime subscription for it.

But I can’t find a way to use LedLightControllerHomeApp at all without paying it says continue with limited functionality but limited implys there is in fact a function that you can use without payment it doesn’t matter what option you click it sends you to payment screen, including the “get free trial button” obviously false or misleading advertising and no use for such a thing

There is something wrong with the lights it says to connect to wifi plus local network I already allowed both and it still won’t work to activate the lights or change the color

Awesome
