Atomi Smart

Basic and boring app. Bottom of the barrel customization. The "schedule" does not work. The app does not allow you to schedule different colors of lights to come on/turn off at certain times of the day. Plus, all of connected lights have to be the same color. You can't "schedule" a different color, for different light fixtures. Extremely disappointed with this brand & app. I would really like to give this app ZERO stars. 🤷🏼‍♂️

These things are garbage. Got these last year and had two of them work fine for about 6 months. Then they both stopped for some reason. Got four more as gifts and tried setting them up. The hot spot connection took several tries to appear. When connect to the hot spot, the plug would never connect to my phone. Tried this several times and gave up. Shouldn't be this difficult. Shouldn't have lost functionality for the first two. Not interested in contacting supports don't bother. Just garbage.

3 stars because the app setup needs work. LED lights are amazing. The amount of light and the options available surprised me. The UI for the LED lights is enjoyable and easy to use and figure out. The setup of the app however is not as easy or as pleasent. It was confusing to figure out that we needed to select the Atomi device as the WiFi to select not my home WiFi. It would help if it was made more obvious in the instruction on the screen by making it more visible.

Easy to use but limited functionality. I only have the Atomi color string lights, they make it look like there are tons of customizable options but really it's fairly limited. I wanted to be able to choose only certain colors and have the lights blink or strobe, but if you do those scenes it has to use their preset color variety. If you select custom colors you can only choose 2 at a time. Overall it seems like it would be easy to provide more customization.

The spotlights are great, it's your app that sucks. No way to control the lights from dusk to dawn, only by time of day. Not a lot of lighting modes, only breathe, flash, and steady. There are no presets for holiday palettes or modes, you have to create everything from scratch. Really disappointing paying a lot of money for lights that have the most bare bones software support I have ever seen.

The UI is good, led control is quite poor. Strobe, fade, pulse, blink, chase, christmas, America, pick 2 and multi are the only things you can do with the lights. Such a short and uninteresting list. These wRgb Leds are capable of so much more. This application need to be updated with better options. I would pay for a Premium version of the app with a modern day list of options for customization. Being able to create your own color Scene would be ideal.

Worked until recently. The app can no longer connect to my smart heater. When it does try, I get an error screen, but due to a programming error, you cannot select any of the options. The heat dial is in the foreground of the error screen, preventing the ability to select any options from said error screen. This renders both the app and the smart part of my heater worthless.

Pixel 6 Pro w/ Google Mesh. The app works great. Just wish the scenes were a little more customizable. I'd like 2 colors chasing each other on occasion so that all lights stay illuminated. I did have an issue with the 2.4ghz connection but that is not a limitation of the app... The issue is with the network and the phone. If you install Wi-Fi Analyzer and it's AP library plugin (both free) you can force your phone to connect to the 2.4ghz AP. Once I had that figured out the setup was a breeze.

Does not work properly with my window ac unit. On/off button never changes, when away from home I can't tell if my ac is on or off. No temperature scenarios work either. UPDATE 4/25/20. Almost a year later not any better. Still wrong weather info. UI in pictures looks nothing like it. Seems like no effort to improve. I definitely won't be any other products from them.

The app is not communicating with the string lights. The lights are on, but on the app their "offline." Tried to reconnect them, and they reconnected for 2 secs. I've had these lights for 3 yrs now, and this issue started about 2 months ago. I can't seem to fix the issue. I've disconnected the lights, reinstalled the app, moved my router, gone on airplane mode to use just wifi, and I continue to have this issue. I can't change the colors of the lights!! That's all I want to do. :(

This works to control the lights, but it is VERY limited, these light strings should have so many more settings, they have 9 scenes, only 1 can be costomized! It should be possible to choose 3 colors or 5 colors, after choosing colors you should be able to add other scene features, like pick orange purple and off (or very dim) for the third, then add the chase. For Christmas, why bother having that "scene" it is just another pick 2, but it could have been the red and green with a blink or strobe

Glitchy garbage! We bought one strand of atomi smart lights from Costco. If you choose the white light setting in the app, half of them (or any random chunk of them) will be on a different setting... like the color setting or a scene setting. Or, they'll all be on fade setting and suddenly some or all of them will start strobing/glitching without anyone touching the app. We've unplugged the lights, uninstalled and reinstalled the app... still garbage! So frustrating!

Strip lights worked great via alexa until very recently. Color saturation via alexa can't be set, so all colors are watered down now. Other than that, Everything works great. Saturation is not an issue in the app. Easy to setup and use with alexa. Wish it supported the scenes, but i can live without them. Very satisfied. Please fix the color saturation issue.

Updating my review as the developer reached out and has attempted to address the issues I was having. I have not yet been able to confirm they are fixed though. Quick tip, if you are experiencing issues with crashing on open, it is likely due either to location services or notifications. I uninstalled the app, reinstalled and did not allow any permissions and it is working, albeit with constant requests to grant location access that I have to keep clicking ignore on.

Poor app. Difficult pairing up to router, or it stops working and has to be reconnected. Such a pain because the string lights are outside. So I have to go outside to get the lights to blink so I can set it up. It is connected to 2.5 hz, the device is close to router etc... I have to keep setting it back up if I don't use it for a week or two.

The lights we bought can't be controlled without the app, but whatever I did I could not get the app to add the device. Kept trying but no cigar. I opened a support ticket and all they did was refer me to their troubleshooting website. Nothing there helped me and for just getting a run of lights to work I'm not going to spend a full week trying to get it to work. An infra remote for their device would have been better! I'm returning their product and deleting this horrible app.

I have a ceiling light . individual control works fine and nice interface. But lighting is not just a single light in a room. Although a group can be turned on and off together. It is impirtant for other settings (color, brigtness) to be synchronized as well . a room wont have differnet color or temperature.

Will not connect to wifi Do not waste your money on these lights. I have 4 sets that are not usable. Why in this day and age they can't deliver a plug and play device is a mystery. And only use 2.4 wifi? The app is garbage, the lights are well built, but you can't get them to connect. I would caution you never to purchase any product from this company. Just look at the ratings.

The lights work fine. I don't understand why they keep turning themselves on around dusk every day. I haven't touched the app or the lights. I also checked to see if they were somehow scheduled to do this, and the app says I don't have anything set up. It's very frustrating because I don't want them on when I don't want them on.

edit: After some deleting and redoing things I was finally able to use the app again. BUYER BEWARE!!!! App just logged me out and now I can't log in. The button to push after you put in your info doesn't work and there is no support option through the app. Even if I try the sign up part that button doesn't work. Spent all that money for multiple strands of lights and can't even use them.
