Hello,
how should be properly configured wifi hub with 4 sets of WRGB II?
All 4s WRGBII are binded to Wifi hub, Wifi Hub green led is lid.
There is created one set group which contains all 4 WRGBs (should be or not?)
And whole setup don't work work as expected. After power outage and power back never all 4 WRGBs are set on, sometimes only one, sometimes only 2 and sometimes only 3. Completely randomness. Why?
WRGB with hub won't work in programmed schedule - just stay on. Won't switch off as it should at specified time.
What for is a "group"? When group is created it displays 4 wifi signals icons. So I presume all 4 devs are grouped. But when I select and enter the group only one device is displayed, selected and controlled - why?

If all 4 WRGBs are binded to Wifi Hub what for is group? Does Wifi Hub need it?
How each device should be configured to work with Wifi Hub? Manual? Auto? Custom?
Application can leave with one selected particular state manual/auto/custom -which one should be left?
It seems there is some significant difference when device is left in auto or custom or manual option.
My goal is simple: I just need to automatically switch back to programmed schedule all 4 WRGBs after power outage. Nothing more and nothing else. Could someone explain how to achieve this in simple steps using WiFi Hub?


Now let I share my thoughts as a customer.
I've never seen such broken product before as Chichiros LEDs and app, it's madness. Such trival job like switching light on and off on schedule after power outage is impossible for Chichiros to achieve. Customer doesn't need complex and useless app but just need reliable WORKING lights on schedule after power outage, nothing more and nothing less. Whole world solve this problem with adding a simple backup battery. Chichiros LEDs are already relative expensive so adding a backup battery won't change any much at all and solve so much trouble. But not Chichiros. You guys try to solve simple problem with adding a new device and a new problem (wifi Hub) with new extra complexity to whole setup, and probably new bugs (like NTP problems, right?). Unbelievable. Simple task: switch lights after power outage not possible in 21 century. Unbelievable.

Never mind, I build own device based on esp32, I reverse engineered protocol and it works like a harm. It's unbelievable that you guys as a producer can't do such trivial task and customer are forced to build own solutions.
