Ratings and Reviews
Does what I need it to do
I just needed an app that could reliably connect with my Hue lamp to control the brightness and turn it on and off… something the official app was quite incapable of 🤨. So thank you for stepping in with this app; works like a charm.
Fantastic app
I really don’t understand the low star reviews. This is a great app and better than the default Hue app.
Dies when i check "About Hue Essentials"
When I click on "About Hue Essentials" I get an error dialog with the message...
Invalid destination: a@488f746
Just how can any app be on the store when they haven't even checked this? Should I check for more? Why bother if the developer can't even be bothered checking for this.
