What’s New
Version 5.5.2
IMPORTANT: If old or new widgets don't work, restart your device please.
If iOS removed the old widget after restart, re-add it: Go to the left of your home screen, scroll down, select "edit", scroll down again, select "Customise" and add iConnectHue.
This is an iOS bug we cannot circumvent.
This update is more or less 2-3 big updates in one - we're proud to present the best Home Widget available for Hue, and if this wasn't enough, we've extended Siri Shortcuts by quite an extent. In detail:
Home Widgets
We now support Home Widgets - and they put more functionality in available space than any other Hue widget! One small and one medium with the 2024 upgrade, or any number and large widgets via a Membership. They support every action of the classic Widget - and more:
* All Home Widgets sync via iCloud
* Place them anywhere you like on your Home screen
* Duplicate & Share them with family members (Membership)
* Multi action, up to 4 actions for one group - a new one per press (Pro)
We've polished the way you can add new things to your widget - this is free for everybody! You can access your list of widgets now directly from iConnectHue's menu.
It took a lot of effort to support Home Widgets, in addition we redesigned them.
They work vastly different from the old widgets, it was a almost miracle we could teach them to support all our actions. They won't always show the latest state, but iConnectHue will always switch right. Open the app or press the reload button in the middle to update them instantly.
(Available for every Member or w/ 2024 upgrade)
Pro Members will welcome the Multi Action Item - put up to 4 actions for the same group into it and step through them, like with the Hue Dimmer Hue button. This saves up to 75% space, and allows you complex actions even in a small widget.
IMPORTANT: If the old or new widgets don't appear, please restart your iOS device. It might be that iOS removes the old widget. In such a case add it again This is an iOS bug.
Also note that the classic widget is marked as "deprecated" since multiple years by Apple. It might happen that it will disappear with a future iOS update. Home Widgets require iOS 17, as this introduced interactive Widgets.
Siri Shortcuts
You can now create and edit shortcuts in the shortcuts app directly - with nice lists of what you can do and where.
The old way of doing things in the app and adding them as shortcut afterwards isn't available any longer, but you can still create shortcuts within iConnectHue via its menu.
(Available for every Member or w/ 2024 upgrade)
Note: If you get the error that something went wrong in the shortcuts app, please restart your device. This is a bug in iOS.
In addition to this, Pro Members get a new selection of possible shortcuts and actions:
* Change brightness of a group
* Toggle a Motion Sensor, Contact Sensor
* Turn a group on in 2 hour sun-adjusting daylight mode
* Set the color of a group via color code (see our Copy & Paste tutorial for possible codes)
Other detail improvements
* Try out the new things without purchase; Running new shortcuts and using Home Widgets though requires the appropriate purchase
* Toggle the Contact Sensor on/off from any widget (2024 upgrade)
* Pro: Improved color pasting can also pass brightness (see our Copy & Paste tutorial for possible codes)
* Contact sensor open state indicated via icon in device list
* Added support for new light types
* Several detail improvements - finders, keepers
* Fixes and stability improvements - yes, we also do that...
Note that some things might only be available in iOS 17, and we strongly recommend to update to the latest iOS version for everything to work properly.
