About this app

Like you, LIFX wants smarter light. This means we care about the way you control your smart lights, as much as we do about the lights themselves. We make it easy to get started with WiFi-enabled, bright, colorful smart lights that need no hub. Yep, you can start with just one device.

LIFX App can not only help give you the best start, but will turn your experience “up to 11”. Automate your wake up Schedule, or set up your movie-watching Scene (then set up voice control so you don’t even have to leave the sofa), or play with Effects next time you’re entertaining.


Features.

The LIFX app is packed full of features like:

- The Basics: on/off, dim, change color, change white temperature.

- Groups: control all lights in a group easily, including on/off and dimming with one touch from the Home Dashboard.

- Group personalization: choose a LIFX illustration to suit or personalize Group cards with your own pictures.

- Schedules: automate your lights to fade, change color, and turn on/off, all visible in an easy calendar-style view.

- Effects: play with special effects like the music visualizer, fire, move, candle flicker, strobe, color cycle & more, all in one place.

- Scenes: set your lighting just the way you like it and save it for later.

- Themes: a library of one click color combinations for a Group, from ‘Proud’ to ‘Soothing’.

- Paint: with your finger in the app, paint color live onto your LIFX Z, Beam, Tile and Candle.

- Custom color palettes: add your favorite colors to a custom color palette.

- Discover Tab: find How To guides, learn about integration partners, or shop for LIFX

- Switches: configure switches to control your LIFX lights, groups and scenes, as well as other non-LIFX devices

- and much more.




Example uses from our customers:

- Ambiance: schedule warmer light in the evening - to calm - and whiter light in the morning - to energize.

- “Moccupancy”: set irregular schedules to make it seem like you’re home when you’re not.

- Sleep: set your bedroom lights to deep red just before bed to produce more melatonin which helps you get better quality sleep.

- Stay put: you’ve settled into the sofa for a streaming binge but left the lights on. No need to jump up to the switch, just ask your voice assistant.

- Pet owners: if you're unexpectedly late home from work, turn the lights on for your dog from wherever you are.

- Silent notifications: use partner apps to give you a light flash if… your car is arriving, or the forecast says it will rain, or you are mentioned on social media, and much more.

Can we please get the ability to run a full routine at an easily changeable time, instead of entering each time manually? A lot of people are using LIFX as a light alarm, and having to change each state of the routine individially is time consuming and counter intuitive. For example, make a checkbox for "sequence" and when checked give a field for "start time". That's simply everything so much. Thx!

I was a beta tester and the most recent update broke the ability to edit or delete schedules, and made the app lag when I tried to change light settings. (Lag was within the app, not between the app and the bulb.) I left the beta and now it works perfectly again. No lag, instantly responsive, and editing schedules works again. I have no trouble navigating the app, either.

Dashboard doesn't work at all. My group appears then immediately disappears and says nothing to see here. I play with all the buttons and sometimes the group will appear long enough to turn the light on or off. Obvious last update didn't really fix this, and it has never happened to me before. Also can no longer enable with Alexa that states the light doesn't exist. I have uninstalled and re-installed and it never shows my light in the list when I try to add it. I'm done.
