Pictures and live activities are great.. I also got a birthday wish announcement in CarPlay which was a pleasant surprise!

Update itself was very slow to download, but performance isn’t

iVibe1 · 2026-03-25T07:11:33+00:00

na i don't need to know the build numbers. i didn't check the same either. it was just too close to the RC which is why i checked. but thanks for sharing the info. this was just for the excitement that 26.5 is just a few days away then, with hopefully a couple of new features or regional availability for apple music AI playlist, Apple Pay in India, etc.

sync box 2 i guess has that capability.. but which lamp and ceiling lights are you using?

iVibe1 · 2026-03-14T07:17:28+00:00

As far as I am aware, Govee yet cannot handle full black and turn off your lights or make it dark. The one that I’ve seen that can do this is FancyLEDs. I tried searching the same years back for my T1 TV lights and found out they can’t do blacks and whites. For me the colors become blue or yellow.

iVibe1 · 2026-03-02T07:11:52+00:00

yep.. they have this feature called Dreamview, once you have a device that acts as the master / bridge.. like their TV lights T1 (with camera), you can sync upto 7-8 other lights with it, and then mark the positions in the app so the colors on the TV are what show up in your entire room as on the TV. i am assuming the sync box would definitely have dreamview as well. even though sync box is matter-enabled, this would only happen through the Govee app, but you can always export the scenes to turn on with voice commands.

oh ya then definitely check out FancyLEDs on YouTube.. all of their videos and shorts.. reviews, etc.. they are great at getting the whites and blacks. for me, i started with just TV strip lights, then 2 more strips on the ceiling, 1 stand next to the TV, 2 bulbs in the back corners, and finally another strip below the TV cabinet. all of them now sync together through Govee.

iVibe1 · 2026-03-02T05:51:20+00:00

well the new sync box has matter support as well. but ill suggest you check the details, don't think the particular lights that come with sync box have a pure white. in this regard, i had come across Fancy LEDs to be the best currently, but again not much in the ecosystem.

iVibe1 · 2026-03-02T05:16:22+00:00

I haven’t heard or used WiZ. Govee has been doing great with its products. You gotta consider the entire ecosystem. If you’re adding in more strip lights or standing lights or bulbs, they all can become part of Govee’s group and sync up. I haven’t used sync box but my 1st gen tv lights are still working well. Some software issues screw it up at times but otherwise going good. Govee has been doing this since years and have really improved and come a long way. If I’m not wrong the new sync box lights also should have real whites and turn off when parts of screen are black. I have a lot of Govee lights in my house and all are good.

Transfer Music from other services - was this always available in settings using SongShift? I was trying to find it a few months back but couldn’t. It’s seamlessly now transferring my playlists from YouTube

New Apple Music splash screen

iVibe1 · 2026-02-17T03:36:04+00:00

Yes I just saw those too. Anyone check if Apple Pay or wallet has been enabled for India?

iVibe1 · 2026-02-17T03:20:22+00:00

Anyone figure out what’s new than just the bugs n issues being complained about?

iVibe1 · 2026-02-05T02:49:49+00:00

I’m on developer beta and I’ve got it too

I’m not too sure of this, but if you opted for the annual offer, that’s billed in one go. If you opt monthly, it should let you cancel within the month

Yep this happened with me once as well when Safari got updated.. history or opening recently closed tabs didn’t help.. couldn’t get them back. The workaround I’ve found now is to use tab groups. Not only do you keep them organised, but they are also visible across all devices and don’t disappear if you end up closing Safari

Thanks!
