Instead of guessing what Hue's "Light Recipes" mean, our Everyday Lighting album presents gorgeous photos of antique and halogen bulbs or a skylight so it's clear what kind of light you are going to get. Our fluorescent tube even flickers on like the real thing!

HelooooooWorld ,

Great app, only missing automation.

Love this app, moved my control over to the one app, does everything... except automation in the background. Would like to see this implemented into this app.

Settings perhaps having choice to wake up and go to bed times where custom choice of lighting can occur and same idea with location tacking, so that when you get home you can trigger the lights.

Love the app otherwise and have purchased in app extras due to quality.

Issues when connecting to bridges

I should qualify by saying I’m currently running four Hue bridges; the app is stuck in an endless loop trying to connect to any of them, meaning that nothing will run. There doesn’t seem to be an option to delete bridges and re-add them (at least I haven’t been able to find it).
In fairness, when the app does work (which is super rare recently), the scenes are great, although somewhat expensive when compared to other apps.
However, if the app has trouble connecting / switching between bridges, it is unreliable and not fit for purpose from my perspective. I really want this app to work properly; hopefully the next update will squash some bugs…

Developer Response ,

Thank you for this bug report. We should handle 4 Hue bridges easily so there’s an issue for us to correct. We’ve got several fixes in version 3.5.9 in the App Store now. Can you try this release and update your rating/review if it corrects the issue? Please contact us at support@getomswitch.com on this or any other questions you have.

Preferred app...

... for managing Hue lights due to its simplicity of operation. But making Favourites a premium-only function is bordering on criminal. ~$40 of purchases should entitle the user to be able to place their usable options within easy reach.
