This was just what I needed. Thanks!

I finally got it to work by: connecting via WiFi NOT manually. So before you connect via WiFi it says to: turn the light off. So turn it off for like 5 seconds. Then it says turn it on then wait for like 3 secs then hit the( connect or finish) option and it’ll work all the time. I’ve done it in 3 different houses and apartments. I don’t really think WiFi connection matters since they obviously all have diff speeds.

could you go into more detail im confused and i really want in to work

I had a few issue too. someone said connecting it using you phones WiFi first works; providing you have a second device to do it. play with the lights for a bit, then connect again this time with your home WiFi and that should do it, it worked for me after a few hours. Annoying I know, but technology..

If not already in there, change the region to Europe, I changed it to Spain. That's what worked for me.

Ok so what I did i switch from my 5g wifi to my 2g wifi. I restarted the app and had my bulb off. Then it gave me the smart connect option. I did it and it found the bulb. After the switch to 2g it really was as simple as this video. Maybe I got lucky idk.

Did anyone make it pair? I'm still struggling. Have a lot of messages going with support, but no use. Tried direct 2.4Ghz, tried hotspot, tried different phones and still have it not paired. Anyone has the magic steps to make it work? Any hint appreciated!!

Someone please help me, I’ve put hours into these light and I’m just so done with this. I’m trying to pair the wiz lights to my external hotspot device to control them through my phone. They appear to pair normally then they get stuck on the loading screen: “initializing connection” after 5 to 10 minutes, they fail with a message that says “No error message received” 🙃

I don't see the customize color options on mine

Yea this product is garbage. It doesn’t connect or give me the option to connect manually

For those of you complaining about it not connecting I have the solution: 1. If you have already connected your bulbs to your wifi then uninstall the app and reinstall. 2. Connect your phone to someone else's hotspot. 3. Open the app and add a room then add a device and enter the password of the hotspot. 4. Use the smart pairing feature to connect both or how ever many bulbs. 5. Disconnect from the hotspot and connect your normal wifi. (This will disconnect the bulbs). 6. Add another room with your normal wifi and put in the password. 7. Use manual pairing and follow the steps to connect to each bulb's wifi and go back to the wiz app. (Repeat this for however many bulbs you have). 8. Once all bulbs are connected delete the old room and your all good to go. 😁 Tip: use the presets (labeled with numbers) to control all the bulbs in the same room without changing each bulb manually. Hope this works for u guys ☺️

It does more than white if you have the A19 model. If you click on the color selector right by the settings icon, you can make it change colors using a full color pallet.

Ram, I have been experiencing the same problem. I contacted Phillips on the issue. They said they are supposed to reconnect, yet they couldn't figure out the problem, not do they seem very knowledgeable. Sometimes they seem to reconnect but usually they don't. I have two A19's and both seem to have different percentage of connections. The BR30 also seems so reconnect better. But again, all three bulbs go through this. I even had them 5 feet from the WIFI Router. Even doing to repairing is finicky, sometimes they par and sometimes they don't requiring to redo the process a few times. Weather underground also does not seem to work with these lights. Yes I can get itfff to work, but good luck with weather underground. Also I tried Google Home, and no it does not work. I get the code, but it doesn't accept it, and gives me a 403 error. Funny, because itfff and Alexa both excepts the code no problem. I contacted Wiz, and where wanting me to change mobile network information's and were not even giving me the correct steps to do that. I had to explain to the person a few times I'm on wifi and do not have cell service. Ultimate, we could not get it to wok and they blamed Google for their pages 403 errors. The box claims Easy control with app or voice. Again let me clarify that with app "or" voice. Their is no voice support built into their bulbs. You have to have a app, not only a app, but 2 apps. You have to have the Wiz app and a other such as Google (that don't work), Alexa, or Siri. You also have to register to get this 10 year warranty. US law states that the manufacture cannot force you to register to get the warranty. Not only this they claim that it last 22 years but has **. You check the ** section and its for the led lifetime and states about half of the led light source maintain 70% of their initial lumen output used at a average of 3 hours a day. So how is this lifetime or even 22 years. Without registering its only 5 years ar 3 hours a day. Again, this runes afoul with the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act. I though Philips was a reputable company. WTF happened to them?

@@thefly9390 so I just returned my bulb to Amazon and bought syska now that one is perfectly fine. No connection issues, the only one problem related to syska is that the brightness of colors is too low compared to Philips and the quality of lighting is also not great as Philips but that is acceptable for a price range of rs 585 for a 9w bulb. Moreover everything is fine with syska over Philips

If I wanted to read about it. I would have googled.

Purchased 5 of the A19 RGB bulbs and they suck really bad. Will not stay connected. Every time you give a command to alexa to turn lights on or off, it says light not available. Same with the WIZ app, not available most of the time. Save your money and buy something else, anything else.

Waste of money!!
