Description

The official Philips Hue app is the most comprehensive way to organise, control and customise your Philips Hue smart lights and accessories.

Organise your smart lights
Group your lights into Rooms or Zones — your entire downstairs floor or all the lights in the living room, for example — that mirror the physical rooms in your home.

Easily control your lights — from anywhere
Use the app to control your lights anywhere you have an internet connection.

Explore the Hue scene gallery
Created by professional lighting designers, the scenes in the scene gallery can help you set the mood for any occasion. You can even create your own scenes based on a photo or your favourite colours.

Set up bright home security 
Make your home feel safer, no matter where you are. The Security Centre lets you programme your Secure cameras, Secure contact sensors and indoor motion sensors to send you alerts when they detect activity. Trigger light and sound alarms, call the authorities or a trusted contact, and monitor your home in real-time.

Get the best light for any moment of the day
Let your lights change automatically throughout the day with the Natural light scene — so you feel more energised, focused, relaxed or rested at the right times. Just set the scene to watch your lights change with the sun’s movement, transitioning from cool blue tones in the morning to warmer, relaxing hues for sunset.

Automate your lights
Make your smart lights work around your daily routine. Whether you want your lights to gently wake you up in the morning or greet you when you get home, setting up customisable automations in the Philips Hue app is effortless.

Sync your lights to TV, music and games
Make your lights flash, dance, dim, brighten and change colour in sync with your screen or sound! With the Philips Hue Play HDMI sync box, the Philips Hue Sync for TV or desktop apps or Spotify, you can create totally immersive experiences.

Set up voice control
Use Apple Home, Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant to control your smart lights with voice commands. Turn lights on and off, dim and brighten or even change colours — completely hands-free.

Use Siri Shortcuts for quick control
Use the Shortcuts app to create shortcuts that you can place into widgets on your Home Screen for even faster control of your lights. Turn lights on or off, adjust their brightness and temperature or set scenes – all without even opening the app.

I love my Philips Hue

Philips Hue lights have been really useful and helpful for me, they’re not just fancy party tricks. I use Philips hue lights in my bedroom and art studio.

In my home office/art studio, I use the bright lights of “focus” or “energize” mode when I have to work, especially if it’s at night. It’s been particularly helpful for me while painting. Lighting is critical and it can throw my color mixes off if the lighting is bad.

In my bedroom, it helps me relax when it’s nearing my bedtime. When it’s my bed time, I avoid bright lights by using the “night light” mode. In the morning, half an hour before my alarm, my lights slowly brighten up which makes waking up easier. All these practices aren’t just fancy stuff. They’re based on scientific published journals about light and its effects to our circadian rhythm. Listen to the podcast by Andrew Huberman about mastering your sleep to learn more.

I have been using this app for a year now and I appreciate that they continue to update this and always add new features in their Labs section.

Still working well

After 8 months of being away from the house, we found the Hue working as we had left the bulbs. It turns off and on per set up. It also work with Alexa which makes it easy to turn on or off.

Terrible support

Philips Hue is great when it works, but my most important use of this ecosystem is to integrate them in HomeKit to interoperate with other branded accessories.

But when a portion of HomeKit integration breaks Philips Hue is unwilling to help you. Not even to help contact Apple on your behalf as they have a better way to reach out to them than the average user.

As a certified HomeKit member Philips Hue has a responsibility to ensure the integration works. Philips Hue’s response is to wash its hands of the problem instead of adapting to Apple’s API changes. I guess there’s a reason why you can only ever contact Philips Hue through their disappointing and unhelpful social media channels only.
