Color Changing Flexible LED Strip Lights
How do I control color-changing strip lights?
For color-changing strip lights, you have options when it comes to controllers. You can opt for a handheld (RF remote), Smartphone (Bluetooth/Alexa/GoogleAssistant), or a channel receiver.
What kind of controller do I need?
All color changing strip lights have the same types of controller options as mentioned above, the only difference is the capabilities of the strip lights. RGB controllers allow you to choose the specific color you would like. RGBW controllers allow you to control color-changing, single-color, and white modes on RGBW strip lights. RGBCCT controllers allow everything that RGBW controllers do in addition they offer the ability to adjust the color temperature.
What colors are possible with color-changing strip lights?

RGBW
Works like RGB but offers a true white expanding the range of colors available. Has a fixed color temperature.

What are the differences between color-chasing and color changing LED strips?
Color-Chasing LED Strips
Color-chasing LED light strips, also known as single addressable, have individually controllable LEDs on the strip and allow you to change different portions of the strip light at the same time giving you many unique effects such as an ombre look, alternating colors.
Color Changing LED Strips
Color changing strips only alternate to one single color at a time. You can change colors as you please, but the strips cannot produce different alternating effects like color-chasing strips.
