I just tell Alexa or Google home to do set the temperature and change the color. Superior technology less hassle.

It has nothing to do with me not being able to set it up. It more has to do with the stupidity of the user interface of pulling my phone out of my fucking pocket, navigating to the app, navigating to the menu and picking the lights and the color and flipping it.

That depends on what you want to do. If you want to control one specific light in a large room the phone app may be best - try to explain to google which light you mean.

Most people don't have such a complex setup that this ever comes into play. However if you have a stage in your house (not a movie theater, a full stage) you would want that level of control. There are probably a few dozen such houses in the US.
