Only works when app is running

I wanted to use this product to help me wake up in the morning. I downloaded the app and set up the timers to turn on and off at the correct times, and I played around with the funky color settings too. They all worked fine, although I couldn't figure out how to set the sunset/sunrise timers to use the customized color temperature. However, I discovered that unless the app is running in the background on my phone, the light will not turn on when it is set to. Since I don't want to have to reopen the app every day, I'm returning this product. I am going to use an old fashioned christmas lights timer instead.
