- Enhanced animation transitions to/from off state (applicable to Interactive Widgets only)
- Implemented a workaround for a bug causing widgets to be unavailable pre-iOS 17

I appreciate your continuous feedback! Thanks for helping make HomeLights better for everyone.
Ratings and Reviews
An app that quickly gets to the point
I have many all in one HomeKit apps that can do much more than the native home app. They are necessary for a HomeKit power user, but for simple tasks, they are often several clicks to just change the lights.
This app gets right to the point. It just allows you to change the light settings for a given room or device. It defaults to a room, and focuses first on the ON/OFF and brightness, and secondarily on color. With the optional upgrade you can train it to automatically figure out which room you are in using the Bluetooth devices that exist in your house. This saves yet another click and makes the app more useful.
It is my go to when I just want to update the lights without getting into an argument with Siri.
good start way to go
Thanks for the App. Bought the lifetime version.
However I have Switches that control several lights. they are seperated on Homekit but shown as one in your App.
Developer Response ,
Hi Amit,
Thank you for taking the time to leave feedback and for supporting the app with the lifetime purchase. I'm sorry to hear about the issue you're experiencing with switches controlling multiple lights.
I'd love to help you resolve this. Could you please reach out to me directly at homelights@anthopak.dev, mentioning the device brand and model? I'll do my best to assist you further. You're the first one to report such an issue; we'll see together if it can be fixed by changing a few settings or if I need to add support for this specific device.
Thanks again for using HomeLights, and I'm looking forward to improving your experience.
Best,
Anthonin
