Tuya - Smart Life,Smart Living

The devices are always off-line. It doesn't matter if I'm home or away, it doesn't stay connected for long and the only way I've found to be able to connect again is is to physically touch a button in the device. I bought these to use while I'm out of town, so what's the point if my devices are never online? That said, when they were connected, thankfully I created meal plans and even when my devices will not connect or they say they're offline, it still feeds the pets at the predetermined time

I'm genuinely not sure which is worse, the app or the light bulbs. You're controlling light bulbs from your phone, surely that should be simple? Not with these. I have a light with 5 bulbs in, all were initially connected to the app and the wifi. Currently I have one that wont turn on, 3 that do as they please and one that is so bright, its hurting my eyes (and yes, I have tried on several occasions to change the colour, brightness and eventually just to turn it off). Will never buy these again

Every time this app updates, functionality plummets. On Google Home, everything shows as offline. The Tuya app can't tell if something is off or on, so you have to hit power until it figures it out. I have one light that fully disconnects every other day. I have to manually turn it off and back on to reconnect. Of course this means none of the group settings or timers work. Removing all bulbs in my house from the app and reconnecting them in hopes it works multiple times a year isn't convenient.
