About this app

Control Cync and C by GE products with one game-changing app, powered by Savant—featuring a user-friendly home screen and navigation and a more personalized experience. It’s time to Experience Life in Cync.

What’s new?

The all-new Cync App, powered by Savant, was thoughtfully designed to give you the best smart home experience possible. The innovative features include:

Enhanced personalization:
• Add photos of your devices and rooms for easy identification and a more personal experience.
• Enjoy the dynamic home screen that changes to put your most used products at your fingertips

Dark theme option
• It’s back. Change the app interface to dark for easier viewing—especially late at night.

Our patented TrueImage technology
• Take a picture of your lights and experiment with colors and brightness from your smart phone—from a different room or away from home.

Advanced color control
• Add RGB values to match your light color with your paint or décor.
• Use the double color wheel to pinpoint the perfect color for your space.

Group devices within Rooms
• Add products to a group within a room to give you more control of your devices without creating new rooms in the app. Example: In your “Kitchen” room, separate “Island Fixtures” from “Ceiling Fan” for individual or paired control.
Improved stability and speed
• Connect to your products faster than ever before and get a much more reliable connection compared to the C by GE app.

Way too minimalistic. The UI is far from intuitive, and lacks any sort of useful things (like words) to explain what the heck the stupid controls mean. I think there's a fad where developers try to make the UI as simple as possible, but they don't do it in a smart way, and never actually have a fluid/sensible UI/UX. Definitely the case here. The Wifi tech itself is neat, but using this app to adjust your lighting in the typical month is like using a hammer to mow your lawn.

It takes way too long to set up and I shouldn't have to download an app just to create an account. What if I just want Alexa to turn the light off or on... The app is still required. The app has long buffers between actions/steps. The bulb I have will not do full brightness with colors. Only in white light modes which is very disappointing as 2 bulbs in my fixture isn't enough to light up my room unless I set it to the white light modes. Update: bulbs keep changing to green on its own👎

Think it's inconvenient to have to walk all the way over to the light switch? Install these switches and prepare yourself for a new type of inconvenience! Once per month each of your devices will decide to lose connection with your wifi. The only fix is to delete them one by one and reinstall on the app. All of the time you save not having to manually control your lights will be made up for by hours and hours of fun-filled configuration.
