smart bulb schedule does not work at all

My smart bulb is working fine when I manually turn it on/off.  I scheduled it to turn on/off at specific times and it did not.  Yes, I saved.  So I scheduled it to turn on/off at sunrise/sunset, and it does not do that either.  Yes I allow everything, and I saved everything.  It shows in settings start time as sunset, and end time as sunrise, but it completely ignores the command.

    Hi sulohna,

      Any suggestions?  I have the same problem - if not resolved I hope Walmart will take the bulbs back - frustrating for sure.

        I was able to solve the problem!  It's the instructions that confused me.  When youre setting the schedule, say sunset to sunrise, don't schedule both the on and off.  That's what i was doing.  If you just put ON for sunset, it will turn off at sunrise.   If youre scheduling a time, Schedule the on, and there will be an option for the off time.  But don't make another schedule for it.   I hope that works for you....I love mine now that I know how
