    Love, love, love these lights. It was easy enough to set them up and apply all the different light patterns and displays with the app. I used an iPad instead of my Android cell phone. My first set was up at Christmas 2020 outdoors and stayed up for 2 months with no problems. It's a little challenging to take them down because of the tangling wires. Have patience! They are worth it. Loved them so much I bought 2 more 600 light sets and a 250 light set!

    I love these lights. The lights and the app are outstanding. Zero issues getting them connected to WiFi (2.4 GHz with standard channel width). Second year using these. Bought another strand from Best Buy this year to extend what we used last year. There is nothing like these lights on the market today. You can try to DIY this, purchasing light strands, a power source (driver), and a controller, but the huge gap for DIY is there is no app, and no way to map lights for custom displays. Twinkly is all in one, using led lights similar to DIY. The key difference is Twinkly includes a powerful app to custom program the lights. Another huge benefit: Twinkly can map the position of each light bulb, which allows for custom and animated light displays. You can endlessly program the lights - colors, intensity, patterns, etc - from the app, making your holiday display unique each year (or as often as you’d like). Highly recommended. This is a solid product.

    Great product for customized rgb Christmas lights. Just be sure to double check the lengths you need. These are not plug n play to each other like the old school lights.

    Worked as advertised, i wrapped two strings, 800 lights total, around a large tree in front of my house. Joined the two strings together with the app, used the mapping feature (photo/movie from the phone) and 30 seconds later the patterns looked amazing !!! The obly issue i had was the firmware upgrade tried running from the gallery of the app and it never runs. Start a firmware upgrade from the setup menu, then the led on the controller will turn yellow, this means its updating. We liked these lights so much we bought another. I have been making my own patterns, most of which run slower than the prepacked patterns.

    A little complicated to map, but necessary for future Lights changes. Lights are bright. The lights must be plugged directly into an ourlet (no extension cord!) In order to work with smartphone. At least this set of twinkle lights comes with electric plug in and conrroller

    The best solution for Christmas lights. These can be stung up on your Christmas Tree and they really do some amazing displays. Each light can change colors and there are themes you can use to display a rainbow, snow effects, patriotic colors etc. You can control the output from the app on your phone with options for different effects too. These lights may be somewhat expensive but if you can catch these on a good sale like we did, you won't be disappointed.

    I have a 400 something light tree and now this 100 string going around the window of my home framing the tree. It is awesome. Bored with one design or color, change it up easily. They synced together pretty easily as well. My only complaint would be you cannot have multiple phones hooked up to the app and lights unless im just dumb and have not figured it out yet. I foresee myself spending a lot of money on these lights over the next couple years
