You have invited your friends to your house to throw a party but it's lame? With Lightsync this will never happen again. Just play your favorite song, open Lightsync and all your Philips Hue lights will change color and brightness to the beat blazingly fast.
Or you just want to relax. Open Lightsync, turn down the intensity and enjoy the lights slowly changing color to the beat.
Your flatmate wants to sleep but you want to enjoy the lights reacting to the beat? No problem. Just disable the lights in their room without interrupting the party.
What you need:
- Apple Music or a Spotify account (free or premium)
- A Philips Hue Bridge (meethue.com) OR HomeKit lights OR a Home Assistant bridge
Why should you use this app?
- It synchronizes your lights to your music playback in real time
- It lets you choose the synchronization intensity and features an automatic mode.
- Change which lights should react to the music without interrupting the party

Ratings and Reviews
Needs improvements
I like your app a lot and I’m hoping to see some great updates in the near future. I’ve tried many different 3rd part light app and yours is the only one that can run my new Nanoleaf light bulbs. I’m using your beta HomeKit setting and it need a lot of work. It’s a good start and it does what I’m looking for. Just wish that this app could run in the background of my phone instead of having to be in the app and music syncing problems. Like I said I’m liking what I’m seeing. But for now this app will have to be at 2 stars for now. I’m hoping to give this a more than 2 stars and change my review. I really want give your app 5 stars if these huge / minor problems can be fixed.
App is very unresponsive.
Only two of my four light in the scene of the lights sync “properly” to the screen. I put it into quotations because whenever you enter the app in this state the app become very unresponsive and normally unresponsive, but it is a beta feature. Sync to music, sometimes work and other times it does not. Unfortunately I can not recommend this app.
Updated review
It connected to my Apple Music and to my Hue Bridge, but the music only plays out of the ear piece of my phone and the lights don’t do anything.
UPDATE: I ended up getting it to work, although I did encounter a bug. The lights will randomly dim and stop syncing to the music. I’ve found that either skipping the song or changing the volume down then back up will resolve it temporarily.
