My light is taking a long time to connect.
When setting up your bulbs, depending on many factors, the process may take a couple of minutes. Please be patient, and wait for the app to provide guidance.
If the light does not appear to be connecting after 90 seconds or so, or seems stuck on the "almost done" page, please try the following:
- Force quit the app on your device
- Reopen the LIFX app, and see if the light is actually available to complete connection.
- If the above does not address the issue, please try resetting the light, and try setup again, waiting about 2 minutes after reset, before trying setup
Instructions on Resetting LIFX here
If you have connected a bulb, and it is not appearing in the app, please be patient. Make sure to update to the latest firmware so you are able to complete setup, and take advantage of all features.
Please also see further instructions here for how to update your firmware here.
The app should provide a dialogue box with a message if any issues are preventing setup.
