What’s New
Version 5.4.0
New in iConnectHue 5.4
A happy new year to everybody. You know our fireworks - but still we'd like to start with a bang: Discotainment 2.0 - the next leap for Discotainment!
If you tried it before and wanted more: Give it a fresh try!
Beat stabilizer
It does what it says - and more. It can hold the tempo when there's a short loss of the beat, and it can predict beats.
What does this Voodoo magic do, you ask? Well, it means that effects are now more in time with your beats - because we can compensate the delay when recording via microphone.
This is our new year's present to you - it's automatically there for everybody!
Note: We still recommend Electronic and Pop music with clear bass line for this to work best.
Pulsate effect
A new effect that just looks great - lights alternating brightness with the beat, especially when combined with other effects (more on that right after this). Choose the desired minimum and maximum brightness via slider.
(Available for every Member or w/ 2023 upgrade)
Automatic effect mode
Now we have so many effects - what if I don't want to be stuck at my phone all time?
"Automatic" is the answer - iConnectHue can now play different effects over time, ready with sliders for you to choose how much you want from each one, and how often (in beats) they should happen.
If you set "Pass through" to 0%, you solely use beats for light control, and other disturbances like speech won't have any effect anymore.
This is now available for every Member.
Don't have a Membership yet? Please try it! But even if you don't, our new Disco Scene set lets you use the new effects (without editing capability).
(Available for every Member)
New Disco Scene set
"From Disco to Disco" is our new Disco Scene set, with handcrafted Disco Scenes for every mood and party, and it employs the new possibilities of Discotainment, for everybody.
(In App Purchase)
... and it's on your wrist, too!
Pro Members rejoice, you don't have to have your iPhone by your hands all the time - you can start/stop Discotainment and choose your active Disco Scene via your wrist!
Note: Due to privacy restrictions set by Apple, starting Discotainment can only be done with iConnectHue open on the iPhone.
(Available for Pro Members)
Other detail improvements
* You can search Magic and Disco Scenes via search bar (2023 Upgrade)
* Optimized Discotainment smoothness (put the app to background for best experience)
* Our "Young Love" Magic Scene Valentine's set is available for everybody again, until end of February
* Added support for new light types
* Fixes and stability improvements - yes, we also do that...

Ratings and Reviews
Gut durchdacht, aber..
Sehr gut durchdachte App, aber hin und wieder scheint Sie Probleme beim verbinden mit der Philips-Hue Base zu haben.
Dauert manchmal ewig bzw. manchmal funktionierts garnicht.
Kommt aber nur selten vor, ansonsten Top App! 👍🏼
Viel zu teuer für die Leistung
Dafür das ich danach wieder alles in der App bezahlen muss zu teuer 👎
Developer Response ,
Lieber SchmidiDS,
vielen Dank für Deine Rezension.
Wir fühlen uns an dieser Stelle leider ein wenig ungerecht behandelt. Es ist keineswegs so, dass man nach dem Kauf der App "wieder alles in der App bezahlen muss".
Die Basis-App, welche man für den Preis einer Packung Kaffee erwerben kann, beinhaltet neben allen Grundfunktionen bereits den besten Schalter-Editor auf dem Markt und den umfangreichen Widget-Editor. Überhaupt bieten wir ein sehr umfangreiches Paket an, das soviel bietet, dass der Initialkaufpreis schon extrem preisgünstig ist:
https://iconnecthue.com/features/
Hinzu kommen sehr regelmäßige Updates und ein Support, der innerhalb weniger Tage individuelle Lösungen für jeden Einzelnen findet.
Die Hue App im Vergleich dazu ist kostenlos, ja, aber ist sie das wirklich? Ist es nicht eher so, dass diese mit dem Kauf eines jeden Hue Produkts bezahlt wird? iConnectHue ist leistungsstärker und vielseitiger als die hauseigene App und wir können die Entwicklung nicht mit Hardware-Verkäufen finanzieren. Wir sind jeden Arbeitstag intensiv mit der Weiterentwicklung und Instandhaltung der App beschäftigt und leisten zuverlässigen Kundensupport.
Genau wie Du brauchen wir ein regelmäßiges Einkommen, um unsere Arbeit zu finanzieren - und mit iConnectHue erhältst Du nicht nur das Ergebnis von bald 8 Jahren Entwicklungsarbeit, sondern auch zukünftige Updates und Support. Ins Verhältnis gestellt: Würdest Du ein Arbeitsverhältnis eingehen, in dem Dir Dein Vorgesetzter initial 1000 Euro bietet, und dann von Dir erwartet, dass Du dafür jahrelang arbeitest? Würde das für Dich funktionieren?
Für einen Döner gibt man schnell mal 5€ aus und eine einfach Hue Color E27 kostet über 30€, aber für eine Software, in der jahrelange harte Arbeit steckt, sind 5€ zu teuer? Fast jede Zusatzfunktion kann ausprobiert werden und daraufhin kann ein jeder entscheiden, ob diese benötigt wird oder nicht. Würden wir alle Funktionen für einen Grundpreis anbieten, müsste die App rein mathematisch teurer sein und viele Benutzer würden für Funktionen bezahlen, welche sie gar nicht benötigen.
Wenn Dich Inapp-Käufe stören, kannst Du alternativ eine Mitgliedschaft erwerben. Diese ermöglicht Dir unbeschränkten Zugriff auf ALLE Funktionen im Austausch für unsere regelmäßige Unterstützung Deinerseits. Das hilft uns, unsere Mitarbeiter regelmäßig zu bezahlen und garantiert Dir eine stets aktuelle App.
Für Dich verlinken wir auch hier noch einmal die Hintergründe zu App-Entwicklungsarbeit: https://iconnecthue.com/app-costs/
Danke für Dein Verständis, dass auch unsere Arbeit Geld kostet, und viel Spaß mit iConnectHue!
besser als das Original
so macht das Hue System Sinn, der defacto Standard für Smart Lighting, der Marktführer, seit 10 Jahren - danke, dass es Euch gibt!
