GVM Easily

The physical Lights seem solid, but the app feature that remotely controls them won’t get past “connecting”. What’s the deal? The manual doesn’t explain how to solve this — don’t even know if this feature even works or if it’s a scam to sell the product :/ Seems to be a common problem — Can you please explain what’s going on or how to solve it? For now 1 star.

What a horrible feeling to have been scammed...as others have described, can’t get past “connecting...” And wow, only 8 reviews. What does that tell you - wish we would have known before purchase. The name of the app is even SPELLED wrong in the instruction booklet from our Amazon purchase (whole thing riddled with spelling errors like it was slapped together in 2 seconds)...??! How do you spell the name of your own app wrong...what a joke...clearly NOT from the USA or anywhere that actually speaks english as falsely indicated...shame shame shame...

The actual app you download from the QR code in the manual does not match any of the steps you are told to do in the manual. There is no way to actually connect and choose your lights. No options. The app does not look like the screenshots from the manual. So if you’re looking for lights that actually connect by app these are not what you are looking for.

If you have ios. Make sure to go to your wifi settings within the phone settings to change the wifi to GVM lights. You’ll have to enter the password in the manua.

Can you please fix this? Why do you advertise this app with so many bugs. It never connects. Whole world is having this problem and there is no response from developer.

Luckily, there are youtube videos that can help you connect with at least one light. In theory, you’re supposed to able to connect to more than one, but I haven’t succeeded yet. Once it works, it works OK though.

Can't connect to the light that corresponds with it. Too bad it's not Bluetooth enabled.

Literally just keep saying “connecting” even after I connected to the gvm wifi. I’ve tried everything

It might seem like a First World problem that I can’t just get up and switch the lights on and off manually, but because of where my lights are positioned it’s very, VERY inconvenient to do so. If only this app were a reasonable alternative. It’s not. Instructions for my lights say that the app should have a Switch Device setting option. It doesn’t. There’s a channel selector, but apparently that’s not relevant to my lights, so why does that appear? And there’s a headset icon that, when tapped, just locks up the app for 30 or so seconds. Of course, I echo the complaints of other reviewers: it’s extremely frustrating that each light needs to be on a separate ad hoc network to be controlled. I’ll go further and say that it’s ridiculous for these lights to be controlled over an ad hoc network instead of by Bluetooth. Changing networks three times to simply turn them on and return to my Internet connection (and doing it again to turn them off) leaves a bad taste in my mouth. Finally, let me just suggest to the developer that they pay a small stipend to somebody for whom English is their first language and clean up the app.

The app’s interface is absolute garbage and so is the Wi-Fi connection feature to connect to the light. While I’m able to connect to one light, there is no way to connect to multiple lights. Other reviews have pointed out the same thing and I was hoping that this issue had been fixed. The app shows different channels, but there is no way to set the lights to a specific channel and have them all connect since they each have their own Wi-Fi signal. I’ve also heard. About being able to slave the other lights to the master, but the lights that I purchased don’t have any kind of mode button or a way to know which one of the three lights is a master.. If you just bought these lights and can return them, do it and save yourself the headache.
