These are rubbish, got them on mark down at Bunnings for like $2 and gave up on them. Never worked right for me.
Might be ok as a dumb light.
Edit: referring to wiz.
You need their app to operate. I can't see these bulbs in the Google Home app. Oh, and once I finished setup, these bulbs are routing my 2.4GHz wifi network through it. Every now and then, my phone gets connected to this wifi which offers such a poor network speed. What on earth going on? Waste of time for me to use these bulbs for its smart home feature. Otherwise, ok. Hence no deal or bargain here.
Your phone should be set to 5G preferred or you need an extender
"these bulbs are routing my 2.4GHz wifi network through it"
Your lightbulbs are now a wifi extender? ngl that's impressive

Smart home, clueless owner?
Initial setup is via the free Wiz app, and is relatively painless as long as you broadcast a 2.4ghz network and network authentication is set to WPA2 (not WPA3) for Wiz devices.
Once setup via the Wiz app, Wiz can be linked to SmartThings and/or Google Home and controlled via your preferred app.
They're great value, IMO. But the setup process must be followed to the letter.
Just an update. I got my order, three of them. It would make a total of 7 light bulbs from this brand including the one from the previous deal. I couldn't be happier. It works flawlessly. Simple installation and it integrates well with Alexa as expected. For anyone who is interested but hasn't yet decided, you can drop me a line. As above the people who knock it are more than likely because of user error
Using them as coach lights, works good
