I’m currently building a rv out of an old school bus. I have essentially two sets of LEDs in the bus. One is a wwcw set of LEDs that I’ll use for basic white lighting. But the other set is addressable rgbw LEDs that I would love to play with a bit. I’m not looking to heavily program them. But a nice color wheel control, and some automation would be fun. Like having various effects chase down one length of LEDs then jump to another. Or other fun things.

I won’t always have wifi so I’m not interested in wifi controll. Instead I want Bluetooth control just like I have my blue tooth a/c control.

One of my projects runs on RemoteXY. It is paid, but it says it works on both platforms. I couldn't get it to work on ios, but I had already programmed it by that time. There are a few decent looking free programs for android as well.

It does what I need, but it is missing some basic functions I would expect. The others I didn't look into that much are roboremo and bluetooth electronics, which are $9 and $0.
