PLAYBULB X App Reviews

Works Great

Im so happy with the app and the bulb rainbow works great all together the colours and brightness are fantastic and the price for the bulb was reasonable compared to other products out there.

Music in only one bulb

I bought two of the "cheaper" white led/sound bulbs and can only play music on one bulb at a time. I can call group them and fade/on/off the light at the same time, but cannot find a way to play music through both bulbs at the same time. Disappointing, as I was planning to group 10-20 bulbs for more whole-house system; dont believe this is an option of the white only bulbs cannot group/mesh to deliver sound through all at once.

Disappointing

The bulb itself seems to be constructed pretty well, but I havent had it long enough to test the longevity. On the other hand, the app is terrible. The UI is not very friendly, and the timer functionality is basically useless (which was the main reason I had purchased this bulb). I wanted to be able to set the bulb to slowly come on in the morning. The timer page shows a duration, but this does absolutely nothing - it just stays on whether I put in 1 min or 30 min. It also gives that illusion that the increase light mode will do just that, but it just comes on full brightness immediately. Id really love to see an update to the app that fixes at least the timer functionality.

Doesnt work

Product seems good, but app wont recognize the device, meaning cannot control light from phone. Music via bluetooth is okay via other apps

Very poor

Collects your data. Really doesnt work well. And now has somehow completely stopped working. Stay away!

Lacks repeating timer

Bought this bulb just to go off when my alarm goes off but I have to manually turn the timer on every single time which is frustrating and annoying! There must be an update to address this issue!

Needs improvement

Worked fine for the first 2 weeks. App keeps crashing. Ive uninstalled the app tried it again still crashes.

Need longer timer duration

If youre thinking youll use this for home security- think again. The longest timer duration is 30 minutes. We need the ability to set a repeating timer every morning or every evening for up to 6 hours.

Works but...

The lights change are instantany but the app was very low quality and dont made for ipads.

The future is now

Great app for those who bought Mipow Playbulb smart lightning devices! Stable, clear, easy to use!!! Approved!!!

IPhone 4

Funktioniert soweit, User Interface könnte bisschen besser, funktioneller sein. BUT: Please add support for the iPhone 4!!!

Dissapointing update

Do not download this version! I made the mistake updating this app when the new version came out and now I cannot see my device on the app nor can I roll it back. My $39.99 candle is now useless. The customer support has not responded to my question regarding the update. Ravi

Update working great

I can control from multiple iDevices as long as I tap "Disconnect" in the app on the other iDevice, or turn power fully off on the other iDevice. If you download update without disconnecting first, just reboot your iphone. Works on ipad (as iphone app). Everything is working smooth, albiet would like to control more than six per group. I have 20 candles.

Playbulb wont play music

The music wont play on the bulb only through my phone . I can change colours but the speakers not connecting ..

Buggy as f*%#

Can barely handle basics such as brightness control. Constantly loses its "connection" in the app, even when the bulb is actually still paired with the phone. The interface is not smart enough to hide features that wont work on bulbs that dont support them (flashing & colours). Brightness sometimes goes to 0% or 100% unexpectedly, sometimes getting stuck. Ive given up on using this app, and have instead just used the Bluetooth speaker, without this garbage (which isnt needed for audio anyway).

No issues

Not sure why people are saying it loses its "connection". Ive had zero issues with it! Although Apple Watch support would be much appreciated. Just a thought.

Great light bulbs! But the app...

I have Zero complaints so far about the light bulbs as they work great. The app does it job but man...honestly its poorly made and really undermines the quality of the brand name. I really hope u guys get a much much much polished app that doesnt look like alpha stages of an app designed for 2009. It also buggy and inconsistent. If u turn on flashing lights mode theres no off button for it. You have to turn on color on the previous page and reset ur color and brightness again. Wtf is the scenery tab for?!? And the music tab doesnt work at all and only plays from the music app. Again the product is great but the app needs to be just as good and professional otherwise your brand name quality drops.

Its ok, I gues....

Its cool but I can get it to work with the music which I was most excited to do, Id like to see improvements

Horrible

Just horrible... Ive had it for about 8 hours now and its already stopped working

so annoying

Worked for one day, now its hit and miss, some days it will work, most of the time it doesnt, even after reinstalling.....now my light is stuck on blue
