Seems like several people have this problem.
A couple things...
1. Restarting my internet, even though it's your bulbs that are the issue. I know it's not going to work.
2. not uninstalling and reinstalling my app, then I'll never get the bulbs to work again.

Roku Community TeamYes, it's really fun to clear the data every 2-3 days, have to have two-factor authorization each time (I'd opt out if I could, but can't), with a text that doesn't let the message app copy the code to the app easily.

Now, one of the bulbs just won't be recognized by the app at all. If it's not one thing it's another. Cleared the data, got one bulb to work but not the other at all. I'm not doing anything wrong. The Wi-fi password is right, it's your bulb.
I am very unhappy. Prove to me that these bulbs aren't trash.
Thanks for reporting back, prisonerdrw.
