Skeptical at first
This product by far is the best I have ever seen!! Yes I was skeptical at first, but as I started using the items added on to Alexa it’s just phenomenal. No membership fee no service fee no charge. I can access my home lights radio thermostat light bulbs TV anything in the house home or away is just wonderful. I can monitor my house when I’m not even home. I can turn on or off any device in the house through a timer, scenario, asking Alexa, or by the app on my cell in where in the world. When I’m heading home from a trip? I can tell my app to turn on the central heat and air and set temperature to what ever setting. Then when I get home, it’s all toasty in the house. I love it it’s just wonderful plus a bonus feature is it plays as a security system if a fire alarm goes off? It notifies my phone if someone breaks in the house it notifies my phone what a wonderful system someone has created. I just love this product. It works well with my Alexa, I can ask her anything she will turn on or off any device in the house. Now they need to figure out how to make a device to bring you a beer??

App worked great for years, before updates
I have Gosund smart switches, smart plugs, and smart power strips all throughout my house; about 20, in total. They all worked great for several years, as did the app that controlled them. They still work with Alexa and I can manually turn them on or off with Alexa or the app. Since the last couple of software updates, my schedules and routines still appear in the app but they no longer initiate. Also, when I am away the app does not accurately show me what lights and switches are on or off, nor does it allow me to reliably control them remotely. I would have give. This app and these products six stars, if that had been possible, when everything worked. I adopted the Gosund products early on, when it wasn’t clear which products would endure. I bought Gosund because they didn’t require a HUB and their products and app were advanced at the time. If you only want to use this app and their products while you are at home, and control the switches through your HUB, their products might appeal to you, however, if you plan to control your lights remotely or want them to turn on or off on a schedule, this might not be your best choice. Until such time, when they update the app to hopefully bring back all of its functionality, I cannot recommend it.

Love these lights!!
I have been using this app for a couple of months now and I absolutely adore that I could turn on my lights without having to get up out of bed or turn off the lights from my bed via my Alexa and everything was perfect until a few days ago, we did have a couple of power outages, but now it isn’t connected and it said it’s not able to connect. I’ve tried three different times and I’ve reset everything and deleted the app and reinstalled it and it’s still not working. I’m hoping that I could get some help and someone could possibly walk me through how to reset it because the lightbulbs are not even two months old so surely they can’t be blown out already. Kindly respond. I already submitted a request for help as well as left my email and phone number thank you so much but other than that, I give this item 5 stars for sure and I absolutely love the app!

Okay
The bulbs work very well once you pair them. The paring process is very painful, I hope all smart bulbs aren’t that hard to pair. It makes me not want to buy more. But after you pair them they work really well so I would recommend these because of that. The app used to be great before they started adding a bunch of pop up ads. Since, then the app glitches a lot and does not work properly a lot of the time. I’ve had these bulbs for 2 years and have not had issues with the app until they started adding pop up ads in there. I have a group of light bulbs and sometimes it allows me to control all of the bulbs in that group and sometimes it makes me click on the group so that I can see the color wheel and then it lets me control them that way. It’s annoying because having the on and off button shortcut is very convenient. I’ve had to add my light bulbs back into a group for some reason and then the shortcut would work and then all of a sudden it stopped working again. A lot of glitches it’s annoying. If it isn’t resolved soon I would probably choose another smart bulb brand. 3 stars.

Fully regret using Gosund
I've had nothing but trouble with the plugs I bought from Gosund and this horrible app. I've had these plugs for a year and a half. I can't accurately control anything when I'm outside of my home wifi. The app will say that my products are on when they aren't, and off when they aren't. I have no idea if they are working while I'm gone. My schedules recently disappeared from view, I had to add new ones, yet they still keep operating on the old schedule that I cannot edit because it's gone, so I'm going to have to disconnect and reset all 4 plugs, but setting them up in the first place was a Herculean task that drove me to the edge of sanity. I've tried to use them with other apps and they *will not* connect. The app is so wildly bogged down with ads that I hate opening it. I added something to my cart once to see how much it would be with shipping, it was too much so I deleted it, yet got a million cart reminders. They are good about replying when you have a problem, but don't actually help at all. The just repeatedly insisted that I had the wrong time zone set, when I absolutely did not. I regret my purchase so incredibly much. I hate this company and I hope they fail.

Constant ads so I can use my lights. Lol
Updated Review (29 July 2023): I stopped buying their products as this app is just so annoying. They won’t stop with the in app advertisements. I turn them off, then a few days later, they turn the ad notifications back on. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME! Updated Review (20 April 2022): I just got feedback from this review that they now allow us to “disable popups”. They gave instructions on how to disable them (settings, Display Home Banner), then this: “It will automatically resume after a week but you can disable it anytime. Thank you!" WOW, thanks! NO REALLY, THANK YOU! I really wanted to know know to disable advertisements just so you could change the setting back to advertise to us again EVERY 7 DAYS. I will NOT be purchasing or recommending any more products from Gosund. These are the kind of terrible tactics that drive customers away. I would give them zero stars for this but it’s not an option. Original Review (early 2022): Wow, I can’t believe they are showing me ads every time I open the app. I don’t want to see any ads when I open the app. They could have a tab for ads. I won’t be buying or recommending this product again.

OBSESSED
I am obsessed with GoSund’s product line. I originally bought the LED lights for the back of my TV. They were easy to install and have added so much extra ambience to my TV watching experience. I decided to take it up a notch and order the LED lights that plug into a regular wall outlet for under my kitchen cabinets as well as the multicolor light bulbs for my bedroom and living room lamps. Everything is so easy to set up and I love being able to manage all of the lights from one single app on my phone. It might sound silly, but in this midst of such a crazy year, these lights have brought me so much joy and I look forward to the evenings when it gets dark outside and I can fill my home with colors that reflect what I’m watching or the vibe I’m feeling that day. I would recommend this brand to anyone (and have shared the links with all of my friends!) and will absolutely be purchasing more in the future.

A must add-on for “Smart” Cameras
These devices are easy to program and manage, including their dimmer switches, with which you can remotely dim or brighten outdoor (or indoor) lighting. For those who utilize security cameras like Nest, occasionally these need to be reset. Nest online help guide instructs that if you can’t reset a camera that is not functioning properly (such as a picture that entirely blurry and unfocused) by using their app, you need to do a hard reboot by unplugging and plugging the camera back in. But of course you can’t do the latter remotely. Adding these smart plugs, however, makes these remote power reboots possible — and it has worked twice already for me in the past five months.

Good until it’s not
Once you manage to get your app to find your switches, they work great. Setting a routine with Alexa to turn the lights on and off, works great and is pretty darn easy. BUT if you happen to change anything about your internet, say your Wifi name, you will have to go through h-e-double hockey sticks to get the app to find your switches again. I have two switches and had to change our wifi name yesterday….after a VERY frustrating hour and a half, I finally got one of the switches reconnected. I was too annoyed to try the other one. Fast forward to today and I still have yet to get the app to find the switch. Reset-lights blink quickly-2 minute countdown-timed out….over and over and over again. Attempt to connect to GoSund hotspot instead, nope, does not exist. I’ll try again tomorrow but it’s looking like GoSund switches and app may go bye bye.

Ads that you can’t disable, despite what support says.
I bought a Gosund product and was fine with it for a while until I started deciding I wanted to use it daily. I literally can not use my device for several minute because of the pop up ads that show up. I have done every step and enabled/disabled every settings as told and 6 months later I still am getting these pop up ads plus they ignore my feedback. I genuinely wish I could return the product but when I initially bought it I was using it as basically a timer so I didn’t notice until it was too late to return. Now I tried to use it as a switch and honestly it would be faster and easier than having to deal with the ads to just get up and use a real switch or power button. App works to some extent but the company and customer service are horrible in my opinion. Use a different smart device/app pairing and save yourself the time.

WORST SETUP EXPERIENCE EVER
These reviews are either all bs bots, or just extraordinarily lucky. Got a light strip for my birthday and began to set it up as a backlight for my tv. I’m pretty tech savvy so this seemed easy enough. WRONG. You would think the lights would AT MOST require a blue tooth connection to your phone- so okay, turn on Bluetooth and just pair to the lights. NOPE. You have to first download the app and make an account, configure your WiFi to their specified 2.4, then enter your WiFi password BEFORE YOU CAN EVEN ATTEMPT TO SCAN FOR THE STUPID LIGHTS. This whole process was designed by a moron I swear to god. And even when you get to this point, you (or at least I) can’t even connect to the lights!!!!! Absolutely outrageous. Never buying one of these products again, and will tell anyone and everyone to avoid making the same mistake. HORRIFYINGLY BAD INSTALLATION. As in, someone should be fired immediately. A 12 year old could have designed a better set up process. Cannot underline my disgust enough.

Amazing piece of equipment
My son in law told us about how we could operate lights from our phone. It was kind of a joke at first. We installed two socket switches on lamps in our living room. We are getting to the age where it is difficult (Not Impossible) to turn on lights. Next we installed one in our pole barn lights because I sometimes forget to turn them off before coming in the house. We now have them on the garage lights. Nice to turn on before entering the garage. Now for fun we have one on each of our night stands in the bedroom Had a blast turning on and off lights when we had visitors. Some thought we have ghosts.

Won’t work withAlexa
Useless!! Absolutely useless!! Why am I fighting with yet another “smart” app that is ridiculously trying to make it impossible to lync with me Alexa home. I create an account when I download the app and then I go to Alexa to sync and of course it says I have log into my Gosund account to continue. First ten times I try it just keeps opening my gosund app and then nothing. I tried closing both apps and starting from Alexa, but nothing worked. Until I deleted the gosund app and then seemingly tada and it takes me to a gosund login screen. Oh wait... it wants me to login with my phone number which was never asked for by gosund and seemingly there is nowhere in the gosund app to link your phone number to your account. This makes perfect since... gosund uses your email address to create an account and then tells alexa to log you in with a phone number. Yeah this is a seamless solution to my home automation.😤😔☹️

Good but latest update is a mess
Since the update a few weeks ago, I have to manually refresh the screen where all my smart plugs are to see if they’re on or off. The app doesn’t seem to automatically sync to the plugs anymore, particularly if I have Google Assistant turn them on or off via voice command. It is extremely annoying that pop up ads come up every time I open the app. I just want to turn my lights on or off and I’ve already bought your product, so the pop up ads are particularly irritating. Ditch the constant pop ups, please, so the app can function smoothly again. Other than those two gripes about the latest update, the products themselves (or at least the smart plugs) and the app work well.

Recommend !
I purchased power socket controllers on a whim because they were about the same price as regular light timers. I live alone and I really love being able to turn on my lights remotely so I come home to a cozy, lit space. Also very handy for turning off lights at night. I underestimated how much I would like to just walk away from lit up living room and go up to my bedroom and turn everything off remotely with a click of a button on the app. The devices work really well and, although I only use a fraction of the functionality, the automations I do have set up are very convenient. Once the outlet is setup, it pretty much just works. Would recommend!

This is the best app ever invented
I suffered for 2 years using WEMO which intermittently crashed, barely worked and made me want to rip the outlets out of the walls and run over them with my car. I replaced them with this system and not only were they less expensive but the app actually WORKS EVERY TIME - it is functionally flawless, at least in my network. No rebooting, no saying it can’t talk to the outlets, no forced sign in every time you have to reboot the system.....it is an absolute pleasure to use. I would recommend this 2000% . I would send their development team a nice fruit basket if I knew the address . Thank you!!

App is now glitchy
I’ve had 2 smart plugs and 4 of the smart colored bulbs for awhile now everything has always worked really well and I’ve liked it. However, with the most recent update the app doesn’t work well. My two main problems, the status of the plugs/ bulbs is often wrong. They will say on when they are off and off when they are on. The other issue is the groups keep resetting. I have two bulbs in my living room and two in my bedroom. They are grouped to each room but every time the app closes it says the groups aren’t set anymore. When you click the group to manage it, it shows the two correct bulbs and you have to re-save it. Over and over again have I had to do this.

Excellent switches
I bought a couple of these switches about a year ago for a set of light switches located in an inconvenient location behind a door. They worked so well I bought 2 more to eliminate a Smart Home hub and WiFi light bulbs that were a pain to manage just using an app. Having a switch along with an app you have the best of both old and new technology. My wife hates using technology so she is able to control lights with the switch and I can use the app to set routines to keep our home lit when away. Another benefit is I can get rid of the expensive WiFi LED bulbs and buy less expensive LED’s.

Life made easier
Before purchasing I thought will I really use this, will I waste my money? Well I I use it all the time and found uses beyond just turning on and off lights. I’m glad I spent the money. I put a smart socket in my crawl space to turn a dehumidifier on and off as needed. I monitor the humidity remotely and the humidifier restarts as long as it’s power switch is left on and it receives power. I control two houses with the Gosund app. Both houses are displayed on the app, just click on the one you want to control. One house has Alexa the other Google. They work seamlessly. I highly recommend this product.

Not working after ipad update
I had this set up and working perfectly for about a year. Then apple updated my ipad to the new os and it will no longer work. I thought that maybe a newer version of the software would work with the new os. So I deleted the app and installed the newer version. Alas, the new app starts but then closes after a few seconds so I have totally lost control of my fixtures. 3/7/23 Update: After fooling around with it some more and more ios updates I finally got it working again. Overall I really like these smart plugs. I now have 8 of them.

Ads ruin the experience & convenience
The hardware & software work pretty well. I like that there is an alternative pairing technology in case your wifi switches bandwidth intermittently like mine (between 5 Ghz & 2.4 Ghz). What really upsets me and ruins the entire user experience and almost the whole point of “smart” technologies - convenience - are the ads inside the app. I have already purchased several products from you Gosund. I have run out of electronics to plug in to them. PLEASE stop putting pop up ads in the app. It completely ruins the user experience. I was going to recommend Gosund to family + friends, but due to the infuriating in-app pop-ups, I will NEVER recommend Gosund to anyone as I know there are alternatives that work about as well and don’t use pop ups in their app.

Great App. Has Potential
I do believe this app has come a long way in the last 1-2 years that I’ve been using it, however, it does still have some flaws, in my opinion. 1. I hate how now on my main page in the app, under my smart outlet controls it shows “Popular Recommendation”, in other words, suggested items for you that they also sell. I feel as though it just clutters up my app’s homepage, and I’m less likely to purchase additional items when constantly being shown to me, especially when I can’t find an option to turn that off, if I choose. 2. I hate how the app crashes quite often. I was in the app, controlling my smart plugs when a box popped up, asking me to review the app, which I did. Upon trying to write this review, the app crashed once again, and I had to go to the App Store, find the app, and finish my review this way instead, proving my point of the issue being very frustrating. Other than these 2 issues, I really like the current version of this app. In the past, it was very glitchy, so I’m glad a lot of those problems have been fixed.

Great lights and power outlets managed in one App
Now I have the power to schedule when turn on and off all the lights around the house with any color I like. This was very useful during Christmas when the house Christmas lights and tree in the house turned on automatically when I was not at home and turned of before the sunrise so this is something else you don’t need to care of, great for people who is practical and like technology; the led lights, and power outlets are connected to internet and managed by the Gosund App in my Phone

Ads ruin this app
When I purchased the Gosund Lamp I thought it would be a smooth interface and present a good user experience. After installing the app I have found it to be a less than well thought out UI first and foremost the instructions did not include connecting to Google Home only Alexa. The second thing was the biggest issue the Home Screen is cluttered with over 8 products being advertised instead of it being a direct access point to the UI that controls the item it is connected to. These things may seem a little small but when you purchase an item you want it to be up and running without any unnecessary hassle or issues.

Previous versions were less privacy-invading
The latest version of this app requires me to both grant Gosund the right to share private information with third parties, and now requires me to turn on location information in order to connect to a device once it's been reset. There is no option to opt out of these privacy-invading choices. Unfortunately these devices seem to sometimes need to be reset, perhaps because of bad hardware design? Unclear why they sometimes just fritz out and stop talking to devices they've been configured for before, and why, even when the app knows the MAC address of the device, it can't reconnect. Hopefully the Apple App Store review team will look into this, and convince Gosund to stop requiring users to grant them the sharing of personal data.

Ads when using app… why?!?
I loved this app and the fact that I was able to turn my lights on and off with my phone. I enjoy a lot of features and still to this day use this app. The last update came with Ads… why?!?! Now when I try to turn my lights on or off, I have to exit out of Ads!! That’s insane! I just want to turn on or off my lights! The number of times I accidentally clicked a pop up Ad while trying to turn off my lights to go to sleep is ridiculous. If I didn’t spend so much on all my lights, I would get rid of it, but now I’m stuck. Buyer beware. Maybe it won’t bother other people as much, but it really irks me when I’m just trying to go to bed and I get pop up Ads just to turn off my freaking lights.

Automatically changes settings
For years I didn’t need to use this app to set up my lights. My son & husband accidentally flipped the switch too many times and I had to pair the bulbs again, but oddly I had to use this app. So I downloaded it, created an account (required to pair devices to Alexa) and while setting it up you have the option to uncheck a bunch of junk (such as “sign me up for emails” and “share my data”). I unchecked most of them and when I tapped on next it verified my wifi password and suddenly all the bubbles were checked again and it moved me to the next step. I had to find the options in various settings and remove them again. I have since deleted this app and am throwing away the bulbs I find that require the use of this app!

Every update brings more ads and doesn’t actually fix issues
I really used to like this app. its UI was quick, and it wasn’t bothering you at all times. Now it’s just filled with ads. Every recent update has made this app significantly worse. i can’t think of a single new “feature” that’s not an ad. Dark mode is also half-baked as only 2 screens are actually affected by it. literally every other screen isn’t so WHAT IS THE POINT OF DARK MODE. at this point i might actually go for home assistant because it’s open source and doesn’t need a stupid internet connection to function. it’s very disappointing how bad this app has gotten in the span of a year. i remember really enjoying it last year…

Go Gosund!!!
I have been purchasing most of my smart home plugs, switches and lights from Gosund and i have to tell you - i am 100% satisfied with their products and this app that controls those devices. It is very easy to set up, use and share with your family. I never had any issues and i have been heavily using it for over a year. I just want to express my gratitude and say “thank you, Gosund, for standing by your product’s quality! You have made my life so much easier!”

Clearly many of these reviews are bogus and this company is a disappointment
I was an early adopter of Gosund products. The original app worked just fine. Each update seems to break the product more. Popup ads have ruined things. I finally have turned off all notifications and I’m turning off notifications for the app on my iphone’s settings. Many times my lights just randomly turn off. I regret buying these. I bought smart LEDs in part to conserve energy and reduce e-waste since they should have a pretty long life. Now, I’ll probably end up having to toss these because they’re almost non-functional. If you read through the reviews, you see a common theme. There’s absolutely no way this app would earn 4.8 stars.

Some bugs
For Christmas I got 4 smart plugs which required me to download the app, no problem. Next step is the 2.4 vs 5 ghz WiFi. Took me about 30 minutes, but I was able to separate my WiFi into that. Next was linking with Alexa. To link with Alexa’s skills, Alexa’s app wanted a phone number to log into Gosund, which I never provided to Gosund. On a whim I entered my email (into the phone number part, because it doesn’t give you an option to enter an email so I did to just see what happens) and password I created and it worked perfectly fine. The actual device works great, but the instructions are pretty much trash once it gets to linking your smart device to Alexa.

Updated from “I hate this app”
“Commercials and alerts and pop ups everywhere. Please leave me alone… I just want to be able to turn my lights on and off…” I’m only giving it 3 stars (even though the company replied and thank god showed me how to shut off all the advertisements)… but I just think about people like my parents who who suffer through ads and even though you have an option of how to turn them off, would have no idea how to do it, even after being told…. Either way, I’m incredibly thankful you responded and told me how to shut them off… that was out of control. Thank you 🙏🏼

Strong, well written app
Many pleasant surprises and so far -after 2 months operation, very stable app Am using for many Gosund wifi light bulbs, downlights, plugs, extension cords, Wall dimmer, and wall switches (approx 30 devices) but also found it supports Lumary devices. IFTTT is really nice to have - replace a motion detector decora switch with normal switch and now control with separate Wireless tags motion/infrared - much more flexible - using app to change timeout is great. Even found a way to switch light back off after 2 minutes - app has minutes and seconds granularity. Can get a bit confusing with 3 apps to setup - Gosund, Alexa and IFTTT, but if you add one thing at a time even a semi technical person will be fine. Each app has somewhat overlapping features - i.e. grouping lamps Sweet to just change bulbs or plug in an adapter versus rewiring switches, can do 80%+ of what I wanted with no rewiring Missing: haven’t found candelabra or large flood type bulbs

Siri no longer supported!
I have had many of the GOSUND products (outlets and bulbs) for 2 years and have LOVED them. However, today my phone did an update to the app and it appears the app no longer supports Siri Shortcuts for iPhone. This was the main reason I purchased this product. I didn’t want to have to buy an Alexa or Google Home device and loved that I could just use my phone. Siri Shortcuts integration set them aside from all others because they were the only ones I could find that would work with Siri. But now there’s nothing special and my days aren’t as efficient or easy. 🤬🤬🤬

Really needs sunrise/ sunset feature
I use this for simple control of my house interior and exterior lights and it works great. My only complaint is that there is no sunrise/ sunset feature. During the spring and fall months where the days quickly grow longer and shorter each day it’s annoying to continually have to adjust the “on” time of my multiple lights every few weeks. It would be a lot better if they could operate like the other wall switch timers I have where based on your location they adjust the timers to come on and off at “sunset” or “sunrise”. Otherwise a good app.

Very Annoyed About Push Ads
Within the past several hours I’ve received 2 push notifications for product promotions. I didn’t bother reading either of them because I have all the smart home devices I want. A “50% off” sale isn’t going to convince me to buy a product I don’t need or want! I went into the app settings and turned off the switch for push ads. Then I noticed the text that says turning off the ads only lasts for 1 week and then it turns itself back on. Why on earth would ANY company think this is a good idea? I’m done with this company and will never recommend their products again. Feeling embarrassed for all the people who have already taken my recommendation.

WOW FACTOR
I bought these not knowing anything about accessory lighting. The hardest thing about the install was getting the power sources, as I have 4 sets on my upper and lower cabinets. I have been truly amazed by the respuesta from people who see them. They emit a nice even light, and the app is SUPER easy to use. The only complaints I have are that they tend to lose connection to WIFI on my network, and that you cannot purchase additional power transformers. I have close to 16+ft of “scrap”, and no way to use it. Other than that.... LOVE THEM, TOTALLY WORTH THE PRICE!

This one works!
I was thoroughly impressed with the app and product. I had purchased a smart outlet about 2 years ago from a different company. It worked until I upgraded my phone to the iPhone 13, then for whatever reason I couldn’t get it to connect again regardless of trying different pairing methods or doing hard resets on my router and phone. These smart outlets paired with my phone and router after resetting the plugs to the slow blink method on the first try!

Extremely invasive, loaded with ads and bloat
The app itself is fine but if you value your privacy at all do not download this app. It requests access to everything on your phone including specific location details that are insane for setting up a simple plug. It forces permissions to use/set anything up. If you plan to use this with Alexa you have to get this app and then add it to the smart devices in Alexa. If you don’t want your outlets tracking your usage, having access to everything on your phone and your internet and sending your information back to servers, do not download. I uninstalled and returned the outlets.

Great app and devices!
I started out by buying a four pack of smart plugs which I used for lamps to illuminate while on vacation and then also for my Christmas tree lights and the Christmas lights outside. Very easy to use the app and to set on/off scheduling. More recently I was in the market for smart wall switches and bought a Gosund 2 pack again as the prices were competitive and I knew the app worked well. Very pleased with the functionality of these devices and the app.

Finally!
I got my new place about a year ago and my sister got me these sockets when she installed my Alexa. I seriously just got around to installing one of them as a light and I couldn’t be happier. Since we all have our phones in our hands 24/7, it was nice to be able to work practically everything in my house with the touch of an app. It’s nice to be able to turn the light on before I get home so I don’t have to walk into a dark house. Super easy to install. Highly recommend.

Smart plug
Right out if the box it was a bit hard to configure. After playing with the app i was able to get all four plugs working without trouble. Now my attempt to set up the app on my backup phone fails to execute startup even when I deleted the app and reloaded it. So now I'm not able to find info on weather the app will work in two phones to run the same group of plugs. Any ideas? Second phone is a iphone 6 and most apps still work on it but this one slams shut as soon as i start it up

Need to be able to use on two devices at the same time
The app was easy to set up only works for their brand, when I went to logon to my iPhone I had to log off of my iPad to be able to log on, I would likeTo be able to logon with two different devices at the same time, then I could control it from different locations when my device at home it’s turned on such as iPad. One quit working the second time I used it, I had ordered four more but then I canceled them I need something that’s going to be more reliable add an app to work on different brands.

Good in 2020, not good in 2023
Bought their wifi sockets back in 2020, and they worked perfectly fine. Was actually super happy with them. I use them once a year for Christmas lights and so on. Pull them out for 2023, and their app has been updated, which seems to be the problem. The sockets won’t pair at all. I’m actually fairly certain the app is recognizing the sockets, because in both the EZ pair and AP pair instances, the light is flashing appropriately until it tries to connect, and then the light on the socket just stops. Anyways - they’re going into ewaste now and I won’t be buying any products from this company any longer. Sad that they had a well functioning product before tanking it.

Stopped responding
It was working great until randomly it stopped responding to my phone. I tried everything I could think of yet it still didn’t work. I bought the lightbulb because when I moved into my house the string to turn off the light while still having the fan on broke. So I bought this so I can still sleep with the fan on without having to take out the light every time I want it off. The bulb itself still worked so I have no idea why it won’t connect. After around an hour of trying to get it to work I gave up and took it out

Loved at first but recently experiencing issues
Absolutely loved this product when I first got it(single outlet units). Recently I started to have issues where it says offline whenever I open the app even while the light that’s plugged into the outlet is on. Will eventually come online but never had this issue in the past. Also having an issue controlling the unit when I’m not on the network at home which is an issue I’ve never experienced before. If the issues get fixed I’m sure I’ll love it again but until then I’m frustrated before It was perfect.

Worked Awesome with Alexa
We started small with a smart wifi power strip and two wifi wall sockets. These integrated into Alexa’s skill for Gosund really well. Our kid’s room lights were now managed by the kid’s echo dots. After this we jumped in a little deeper and bought lots of wifi lightbulbs, more power strips and wall sockets. Now we have most of the house setup with Alexa routines intermixed with schedules on the Gosund app. Alexa and the Gosund app each have their strengths. They work together great with the Alexa skill linked to the Gosund account. Now we’re buying the same equipment for our parent’s house to modernize some of their standard household items. I’d recommend this for friends and family. Looking forward to the rope lights around the kids beds next, they are gonna be so excited. Already winning cool Dad points with my daughter.

No longer connects?
I’ve been using the light bulbs for around 3 years and since the new update, I’m unable to connect to the light so I can change the colors and such. Is this a glitch or am I the only one experiencing this??? I don’t even have the box anymore to manually connect it and the other manual option that allowed me to find the bulb on my phone doesn’t pop up anymore. If I can’t find a solution to this soon, I unfortunately might just have to switch out bulbs to a different one that’s easier to connect and delete this app.

Love the Access, NOT the ads
Three months ago I would have rated this five star. This app is super easy to use. I have multiple devices throughout my home and love that I can turn on the office lights while I’m in the kitchen making tea. A couple of months ago GoSund started advertising their new products on the top of the app page… Okay, annoying, but not too much in the way. Now a pop up comes up when I open the app. This is beyond annoying! I paid for your devices and am fine to know when you have a new product, but get rid of the pop ups!!!!
