Well if that’s the case your plants are in the dark…

Something isn’t right with the app… Is there a place to set the time?

DLI is Daily Light Integral. In short it is how much light your plant gets in a specified time frame. Say 16 for veg and 12 for flower if doing photoperiod seeds…

You are trying to find where you can set the hours in the app.

When I cut the light back up to 100% I am getting 6.0-8.0, should I hold my phone over the center of the plants at the plant height or directly under the light at the plants height?

Ok so how far are your lights from canopy? I think that your light is a little small for a 4x4…

Yeah this is what I’ve started using recently. You should shoot for something like this, so as you can see your DLI should be far higher.

@Payton hold on, I’m looking at the wrong light… Sorry.

Something isn’t right. At 6" with my clone light (T5) I get a DLI of 6.8 at 18 hours.

Did you choose the right type of light in the app?

Yes the sunlight option is most accurate for led  
Edit  
Are you using a piece of white plain paper to cover the camera for a diffuser?
