This app is trash, expensive trash.
Very nice app , this app is just everything u need for your hue lights . This should be an official philips app and the makers of the app needs to get all the props for their work and giving the people what they need ! People saying its expensive or need to buy everything , take a subscription for a year . It literally costs nothing per month .. i never write a review but for this app i just needed to do it , hope the makers keep improving and we can enjoy the app for as long as we live 😁 would give much more stars if possible ⭐️

Whatever you want to do with your Hue lamps once you want to make everything smarter with a lot of timers, fade-in, fade-out,… you will need this app. But the most annoying thing about this app what happens the latest years is that for every single features you will have to pay extra. I get it the developer need some money. But there are way to many options to choice for. Keep it simple.
Developer Response Hello PwainX,Thank you for your compliments regarding the functionality of our app.Please note that there haven't been any recent changes to our pricing model since 2019. Since then, we have offered both Memberships and In-App Purchases.The purchases are meant to support our ongoing work in development and support, which has continuous costs and, unfortunately, cannot be financed by a single one-time purchase.It is correct that you have two ways to purchase features: Memberships and In-App Purchases. We specifically maintain both options because we have users who do not accept Memberships on principle. We respect their decision and wanted to allow them to continue using and upgrading iConnectHue. This variety exists to give users the flexibility to buy only what they need, rather than forcing a higher price on everyone.If you would like to keep it simple, we recommend taking a look at our Membership; it offers the most functionality and is the best way to support us.If you have any questions or suggestions, please feel free to contact us via the app (Help & More -> Contact).We hope you continue to enjoy using iConnectHue!Best regards,The iConnectHue Team

iConnectHue now supports these new Sync devices, including the use of Presets with them, so you can store your favourite settings for quick later recall.
In addition to this, you can now toggle the background lighting mode in their settings, to keep a minimum brightness for dark scenes on your TV in the respective device's settings.
Please note that our Sync support is still in Beta. We are now confident that it should work for everybody, but are still polishing details.
(Available with Pro Membership)
- Halloween Animations available -
Our yearly Halloween treat is back for everybody - and we've added two new ones: "Ghostly" and "Thriller".
12 spooky Animations are available now until mid of November. Enjoy!
Hint: If you have Nanoleaf panels, connect them - you can run these Animations on them as well! (Pro)
(Available until mid Nov, full year for Memberships)
- Other bright ideas -
* We've updated several aspects of the Watch app - if it doesn't show up, try to add it again from your phone's Watch app;

* Please keep your watchOS up to date: We only support current and previous versions, so have at least watchOS 26 soon to be able to keep using the Watch app
* Several detail improvements to make your life easier
Heads up: If widgets or shortcuts act up, try restarting your device - it’s an iOS thing, not an us thing!
- We’d love your feedback! -
Enjoying the update? We worked hard to bring this to you — and your support keeps the lights on (literally)!

** iConnectHue: Nanoleaf and Hue in one app! **
iConnectHue joins both worlds and lets you control your Nanoleaf lights in one app - no separate hardware required!
It supports not only Nanoleaf Shapes, but also Aurora, Canvas, Elements and Lines.
Thanks to ChromaSense, colors are calibrated between them and match as closely as possible across all devices - including your iPhone and iPad.
Here's what you can do:
* Control them via the Dashboard
* Set colors and gradients
* Start and control Animations
* Play with Magic Scenes
* Discover & set up in devices
Currently supported Nanoleaf devices: Aurora, Canvas, Shapes, Elements & Lines. No Bridge or other additional hardware is required.
What this is:
* A Tech Preview - well tested, but only with a small audience
* Control when at home - no remote access available
What this is not:
* Not a Nanoleaf-only app - you still need to connect your Hues
* Not all possible features available yet, e.g. no device scenes nor Discotainment
* No control via Hue hardware, like switches
* No final form - may change the way it works, may even be removed, based on what comes out
Current plans are to improve Nanoleaf support over time, based on outcomes and your feedback.
(Available with Pro Membership)
** Other bright ideas **
* We have improved Pro's daylight mode (daylight based on your time and location), it should be now more true to the day's light (not considering clouds or pollution)
* Direct light timer access from a light's menu (...) in the light list
* You can now search for scenes in the scene list
* Several detail improvements to make your life easier

- Support for wired Wall Switch Modules -
iConnectHue now supports as first 3rd party app wired Hue Wall Switch Modules.
This is great news, because you can configure them as you like:
* Flexible manual and automatic setup
* Use ALL actions you know from iConnectHue, like
* Switching lights and groups
* Scenes, Magic Scenes and Animations
* Launch instant timers
* Blink lights
* ... and more!
The new wired Wall Switch Modules don't need a battery and instead get their supply from mains - no battery replacement - ever! These are the available variants, currently solely available in Europe:
* Wired module w/o any additional functions
* Wired module w/ one dimmer channel
* Wired modules w/ either one or two toggle channels
All of these modules will behave like the original battery modules, with the addition that the ones with channels ALSO allow you to integrate existing lights or applicances that were originally toggled with your switch.
(Available with Membership or 2026 Upgrade)
- New Widget action -
We've teached the Widget a new trick: You can now toggle the Hue MotionAware Area with it. Handy for situations where you're not moving enough, but still need your lights.
(Available with Membership or 2026 Upgrade)
- Other bright ideas -
Again we've touched the app in several places to make your life and the app easier

All of these modules will behave like the original battery modules, with the addition that the ones with channels ALSO allow you to integrate existing lights or applicances that were originally toggled with your switch.

We've teached the Widget a new trick: You can now toggle the Hue MotionAware Area with it. Handy for situations where you're not moving enough, but still need your lights.

New in iConnectHue 5.16
- Support for wired Wall Switch Modules -
iConnectHue now supports as first 3rd party app wired Hue Wall Switch Modules.
This is great news, because you can configure them as you like:
* Flexible manual and automatic setup
* Use ALL actions you know from iConnectHue, like
* Switching lights and groups
* Scenes, Magic Scenes and Animations
* Launch instant timers
* Blink lights
* ... and more!
The new wired Wall Switch Modules don't need a battery and instead get their supply from mains - no battery replacement - ever! These are the available variants, currently solely available in Europe:
* Wired module w/o any additional functions
* Wired module w/ one dimmer channel
* Wired modules w/ either one or two toggle channels
All of these modules will behave like the original battery modules, with the addition that the ones with channels ALSO allow you to integrate existing lights or applicances that were originally toggled with your switch.

5.15.1:
* Housekeeping
New in iConnectHue 5.15
We've been in motion, to present you:
- Motion Area support -
iConnectHue now supports as first 3rd party app Hue Motion Areas. And we've added some extras for you:
* Flexible manual setup
* Inactivity times down to 30 seconds
* Use Magic Scenes
* Cancelling like Motion Sensors when the app is used
* Disabling actually cancels inactivity actions
You can find the cancelling options under Settings->Motion Sensor cancelling (groups). Select your area there if any action on a certain group should cancel the inactivity actions.
Unfortunately, due to Bridge restrictions, we are otherwise limited to what you can do: Up to 3 rooms or one zone or your home is available, and we have a limited selection of possible actions that can be run.
Note: The initial Motion Area setup needs to be made in the Hue app first in order to be able to configure it here. A Motion Area setup will be available at a later point.
(Included in Pro Bridge support)
- Reworked device editor -
We've reworked many parts of the device editor for easier use and understanding. Although this has been A LOT of work, this is free for everybody by exception.
If you like it, a good review really helps our small team!
- Other bright ideas -
* You can disable the swipe to the Dashboard under the Dashboard options menu
* Contact sensor editing improved
* We've added more fruits to the "Fruits" color set
* We've polished MANY things to make everything smooth for you
Heads up: If widgets or shortcuts act up, try restarting your device - it’s an iOS thing, not an us thing!
- We’d love your feedback! -

5.14.8:
• EASTER PACK: 8 great Magic Scenes - available for everybody until mid of April!
• Resolved a few problems
New in iConnectHue 5.14
We have some firecrackers for you - on your lights AND with the app! Here we go:
- Hue Sync Box support with Presets -
iConnectHue now supports the Hue Sync Box for Pro Members. The usual controls are easily accessible via the Dashboard, and we offer an exclusive feature: Presets!
Presets allow you to store your current settings for brightness, the Entertainment Zone, the vis mode and the intensity for easy recall, instead of always needing to set up everything manually.
This was a lot of work - not only to integrate, but also in the future to maintain and adapt over time as iOS and the Hue system evolve. Hence, this feature is available with a Pro Membership.
We likely will add more functionality in the future for the Sync Box, based on your feedback.
This is a beta feature! While we tested it extensively, we haven't yet had experience with it in the wider field. If you experience anything out of the ordinary, write us via the app, so we can improve it for you!
How to add your Sync Box: Go to "Devices" via the menu, select "+" on the top right and select to add a Sync Box.
- Firework animations (one set free until Jan 1) -
No smoke, no loud noises (your pets will aprove), but lots of visual fidelity!
They're free: This seasonal set is available until January 1. With a Membership, you'll have access to it throughout the entire year!
Remember: We also have two additional sets - "Happy new year!" and "Happy new yeah!".
With the animation upgrade, you can upload these animations to switches for instant replay, or run them with a timer to start them exactly when you need them!
- Other bright ideas -
* You can now edit the stop mode of Entertainment areas
* Better editing of Entertainment area in Discotainment Widget
* Updated device search wizard: You can also add new Bridges there by now
* We've polished a few things to make everything smooth for you

- Other bright ideas -
* You can now edit the stop mode of Entertainment areas
* Better editing of Entertainment area in Discotainment Widget
* Updated device search wizard: You can also add new Bridges there by now
* We've polished a few things to make everything smooth for you
Heads up: If widgets or shortcuts act up, try restarting your device - it’s an iOS thing, not an us thing!
- We’d love your feedback! -

5.14.0 27/12/2025
5.13.3
* We've made your life a little easier before Christmas and solved some problems
New in iConnectHue 5.13
We go 13 with Halloween - our Spooky Halloween seasonal Animation set is back until mid Nov.! But wait - there's more...
- Spooky Halloween Animations -
We've updated our Spooky Halloween Animation set by Blood Moon and The Abyss, to give you an even greater choice for your Pumpkin fest.
As always, this seasonal set is available until mid November. With a Membership, you'll have access to it throughout the entire year!
(Included for Members, otherwise available until mid Nov.)
- iPad multitasking support -
We've added support for iPad multitasking on iPadOS 26. Sizing the app window is now supported and the app will adjust its content accordingly. This should make it possible for you to use iConnectHue alongside other app windows, we will fine tune certain circumstances in future releases.
Although this has been quite some work, this is free for everybody!
- Dutch translation -
The Netherlands are the country where Hue originates from, hence we're proud to present iConnectHue in Dutch - Welkom!
We would like to thank Mike Evers for his support with this translation!
- Other bright ideas -
• Fixes and stability improvements to keep everything smooth
• Stay tuned: We're already working on some great new things to come - yes, again!
Heads up: If widgets or shortcuts act up, try restarting your device - it’s an iOS thing, not an us thing!
NOTE: We always support the current and the next iOS version. This will likely be the last version with iOS 17 support!

5.13.2 12/12/2025
5.18.3:
* Resolved a problem where some users couldn't change the contact sensor's close mode
* Resolved that Motion Sensor and Motion Area cancelling from in app actions didn't work for some users
New in iConnectHue 5.18
- Support for Sync Box 4k and Play Screen Sync -
iConnectHue now supports these new Sync devices, including the use of Presets with them, so you can store your favourite settings for quick later recall.
In addition to this, you can now toggle the background lighting mode in their settings, to keep a minimum brightness for dark scenes on your TV in the respective device's settings.
Please note that our Sync support is still in Beta. We are now confident that it should work for everybody, but are still polishing details.
(Available with Pro Membership)
- Halloween Animations available -
Our yearly Halloween treat is back for everybody - and we've added two new ones: "Ghostly" and "Thriller".
12 spooky Animations are available now until mid of November. Enjoy!
Hint: If you have Nanoleaf panels, connect them - you can run these Animations on them as well! (Pro)
(Available until mid Nov, full year for Memberships)
- Other bright ideas -
* We've updated several aspects of the Watch app - if it doesn't show up, try to add it again from your phone's Watch app;
* If the Watch complication doesn't appear, edit your Watch face and select it again
* Please keep your watchOS up to date: We only support current and previous versions, so have at least watchOS 26 soon to be able to keep using the Watch app
* Several detail improvements to make your life easier
