I haven't installed this strip yet because where we're going to put it hasn't been completed yet. So that's why it's still rolled up! Lol! It was very easy to download, install the app and then to pair the strip to the app. Took about 5 minutes total for that process. I can control this light strip with the app from 20 feet for sure (haven't been able to test it any farther than that as I'm still recovering from foot surgery). I haven't tried the voice control yet but will once we get it installed! I will say that this light strip is very bright and I can change how fast it blinks, how bright the colors are, can change the colors also. Love how versatile this is! I wanted to add a video of the strip while on but I can't. So, just know that this is a very bright strip and very colorful! Definitely recommend this Monster LED light strip!!
