LumenIZE

I should have read the app reviews before purchasing these expensive lights. I have a 24w PRO T5 UVB light and the led bar for my bearded dragon. The website makes huge promises of being able to easily set dawn and dusk like lighting. No that is not the case. There are 2 built on programs, on is just on 100% and off 100% at 7am and 7pm. There other jumps to 50% at 5:30am, 75% at 6:30am and 100% at 7am. How is that mimicking a sunrise??!?? You can’t change these, so your only option is going through the cumbersome and tedious process of adding time intervals and light brightness. I created a custom schedule where it increases 10% every 10 minutes. So over an hour and a half it gradually gets brighter (like a real sunrise)! Great right? Wrong. Lose power or unplug the light and your custom settings go “poof” and you get to do it all over again. My basking bulb is connected to a smart life plug in programmable dimmer. In that app, I set a wake up start time, how long I want it to take and at what brightness I want it to end. Takes 20 seconds to setup, it works, it’s easy, doesn’t delete settings when it looses power. I probably should have just sent the fixtures back, but I have hope they will make the app better since it’s a new product. I’ll update my review if that ever happens.

I can not get it to turn on in auto mode. Links to blue tooth not WiFi. Can’t find an email or number to contact Arcadia.

Please update it, it’s trash

I got this because obviously I got the lights. Let me tell you this app is not user friendly but it works perfectly fine. I give it a 4 stars due to user interface not being the best but the app WORKS…which is all I need. Best lights in the biz and this app is cool. My green tree python says thanks.

Works perfectly fine. Read the manual. Does nothing more and nothing less than advertised.

The app never can find the Lumenize, and when it does, it won’t allow a connection. Spent 30 minutes closing and reopening before I finally got connected, and started to adjust, and the app crashed. Now attempting to reconnect again and it won’t. Useless

The lights are great. I’m really struggling with the app. It’s not letting me make custom light times. The “add time slot” button is not working. It would be way more helpful for it to automatically sync with a locations natural light cycle.

The UI is incredibly basic - you can set a schedule or switch to “manual” and just control the light directly. Honestly it reeks of “My First IOS App”. We set up a schedule yesterday, and had it in “Auto” mode, but it didn’t turn the light down then off like the schedule said. Is there something we need to do to “apply” the schedule? No idea. Do we need to have our phone always powered on and with this app open? You can set five “custom” schedules, but can’t name them. The UI to do this is horrible (the time dials UX widget, always defaulting to “now” instead of maybe the last time dialed in), and we found it frequently would “forget” the settings if we close and reopen the app (0% reset to 100%). And the “Data Manager” screen just show a mislabeled graph (we are on Custom 1 but it shows Custom 5 with the data from Custom 1) that is just the main screen turned 90°. “My Animal Records” is just a big text entry field … why in the world would anyone use that? Obvious features are missing: - no seasonal adjustment to dial in - no following local (or selected location) sunrise/sunset times - no integration with HomeKit (Siri), Alexa, Google, etc It makes me wonder why we spent so much money on this “smart” light strip, which has few aspirations aside from mimicking a simple timer function. This just seems like a gimmick that Lumenize itself doesn’t see any value in aside from a sales point on the side of the box.

the app worked with no problems at all for the first couple of days that i used it but now it keeps on crashing or saying i need to turn on my bluetooth in settings when it's already on. now i can't access the light through the app anymore.

App is USELESS do better please!!
