IConnectHue for Philips Hue App Comments & Reviews

IConnectHue for Philips Hue Positive Reviews

Updated: Looks goodAfter working with app I must say that this is really the best done app for Hue. It really has all the functionality and I do support the developers (I did buy it). That being said, I still think basic functionaly (scenes, animations) could have more options without IAP. But best app overall for Hue. Work of art on design/functionality. —————- App is really done very well but basic functionality is limited. You have 1/6 of scenes/animations and you have to buy everyting else as well editing ability etc... so count for 15$ more for full functionality. I feel huedynamic has a lot more bang for buck. 20$ with IAP is too much asking price. But it’s beautiful app. Just add more basic functionality. Or more items in sigle IAP..Version: 3.1.8

Worth the Pro Subscription!This app solves a lot of the problems that controlling Hue lights with the Philips Hue app or Home app have, and it integrates some third-party products too. The thing that makes it worth the Pro subscription for me is the amazing widget support and really handy Apple Watch app. There is a simple complication for the watch faces that leads you to the app where you can control lights by room or group. People are pretty impressed when I control the lights with a few taps on my wrist, and every time I do that I feel like I’m living in the future. iConnect Hue makes some things possible that are either impossible or too hard to do with the Hue or Home apps. Animations, custom groupings that span rooms, “magic” scenes that let you change brightness or rearrange which lights get which color, third-party lights and switches in the same app, cleaning up old timers or phantom rooms/lights, entertainment scenes for parties, and more. I’ve tried many other apps that make big promises, but I keep coming back to iConnect Hue. The only thing that it doesn’t seem to do is control my Nanoleaf devices, but that’s not enough of a downside to make me change my rating from five to four stars. This app just works, and the author is continually improving it and adding features. I wish all my paid apps provided this much value..Version: 4.12.2

Transforming Hue lights and Switches into magical devicesIConnectHue has completely transformed my Philips Hue lighting experience. Before using this app, I was content with the basic functionalities of the Hue system, but iConnectHue has unlocked a whole new world of possibilities. The ease of creating and controlling light groups has made managing my home’s lighting setup a breeze. The animations are a game changer – they bring life to every corner of my house with mesmerizing effects that are perfect for any mood or occasion. What truly sets iConnectHue apart is its unparalleled customization. The gradient color picker and the Magic Scenes feature have allowed me to personalize my lighting like never before, creating atmospheres that are uniquely mine. The flexibility in controlling devices, especially the enhanced options for switches and sensors, shows the depth of thought put into this app. Moreover, the app’s design is intuitive and user-friendly. Whether on my iPhone or iPad, controlling my lights has never been more seamless or enjoyable. The regular updates, each bringing new features and improvements, show a commitment to excellence and user satisfaction..Version: 5.3.4

Easily the best app for Philips HueThis is easily the best app for controlling your Philips Hue lights! FAR better, even, than the app from Philips Hue! The ability to create scenes, animations, etc., makes it one or two touches to have your lights do exactly what you want them to do! The apartment I built doesn’t have windows, so I was looking to build a lighting system that could follow the sun in both brightness and color temperature in the built-in “windows” I created to emulate sunrise and sunset and all the stages of lighting throughout the day. The systems I was looking at were going to cost $2,000-$5,000! Then I found Philips Hue and this app. It allows me to do all of that and so much more. I now have my entire house automated with the Hue lights and accessories through this app. The addition of motion detectors and programming to control exactly what I want to happen is incredible. And when I want them to change to something different, one touch of the button is all it takes. Create zones, rooms......whatever you want and have it do whatever you want! Just a great app!!.Version: 3.1.6

Still my go to after 10 yearsI love this app and it’s one of the few that I happily choose to pay an annual subscription for (of course I pay for some subscriptions, just not very happily). I probably don’t use more than a quarter of its features, but I want to support them and make sure they continue to operate and keep making this app better and better. I have used it absolutely daily since 2015, as my stock of hue lights went from three to more than 30. It’s simply the best and most intuitive one I’ve used. Plus they are a great little company that never stops innovating, and in my direct experience is 100% responsive to customer inquiries and issues. You just can’t beat that, and you just can’t expect every part of what they do for a living to be offered for free. So I pay for it, and every year or two when they drop a major release, I update my review. I do that for exactly 2 apps on the well over 200 apps on my iPhone. So make of that what you will..Version: 5.15.0

Just keeps getting better!This app is still super underrated and I can’t believe it doesn’t even have 1k reviews yet. I’m a pro member and have about 30 lights throughout my apartment. I reached out to the company at one point recommending something and they responded probably within the same day teaching me how to do exactly what I was recommending but didn’t know was already a capability. This app does take some playing around and figuring out at first, but it has endless capabilities with being able to create all your own content! I just had the new update installed and saw this new AI feature which I had my doubts about. I tried it 1 time and it created exactly what I’ve been looking for and trying to create on my own for a few weeks. I just wasn’t getting it perfect yet, but the AI got it done and I created a magic scene from that one AI creation. I love this feature!! Thank you guys for continuing to improve and develop this amazing app. I will be a pro member for life❤️💛💙💜💚🧡.Version: 5.4.0

Just Stop looking and Use this AppAnyone invested in the Philips Hue ecosystem for as long as I have has probably spent hours on end looking for the best application that just “works”. I have been a Phillips Hue user now for over 3 years (which is an eternity in the IOT world) and have tried at least 20 different apps and have spent a lot of money on some of those apps only to be disappointed. I’ve been using iConnectHue for well over a year now and it continues to get better and better and handle my crazy smart home with ease. I have an assortment of 45 smart Phillips Hue bulbs, 6 Hue Dimmers, 4 Hue Taps, 3 Hue Motion Detectors and use this app daily (even when deployed overseas I would check in on the House). I think I’ve used the native Phillips app only twice in the last year. Learn from my mistake, don’t waste hours scavenging the App Store and loads of money experimenting on other apps. Get iConnectHue now and use that time and money on something that works!.Version: 3.1.4

Steroids for your Hue systemThis it the one and only app you need to make the most out of using your complete Hue system. I entered the world of Philips Hue lighting only recently, and tried a few other apps as I was ramping up the user learning curve. In the process I discovered that this is the one that puts all others to shame. Even Philips' own app. IConnectHue puts your whole Hue Ecosystem on steroids, and will give you super powers to make your place your own Light-Wonderland. This app's UX and UI is so intelligently designed, it puts the "smart" in your "-phone" when it comes to managing and controlling your Hue setup. And the in-app purchases are all so worth it, too! (even the add-on to use the app from Apple Watch). App runs smoothly and feels flawless. And on top, support is prompt and they answer fast to any question. Go confidently with this one and look no further when it comes for a #1 main go-to app for your Hue system..Version: 3.2.4

The best for my hues!I have had this app for several years now and it is the one I use most consistently to control all the lights in my room. The user interface is designed well and everything flows smoothly. Compared to the regular Phillips hues app- this one is very easy to navigate to any setting I am looking for. I have happily paid for a few updates/extras and I see myself continuing to support these developers as they do release updates at a steady pace. I enjoy being able to control my lights from my Apple Watch and phone screen widget. There is one little complaint (more like suggestion) I have - but I’m going to wait and see if there may be an update for it in the near future or if the option I’m looking for is already available and I’m overlooking it somehow… either way, just download this app!! You won’t regret it :).Version: 4.12.4

Best all round app to control lightsI really like this app, and the discotainment I think is worth the few extra bucks. But I would ask the developers if they could add in the ability to set up Siri commands. For the most part you can use Siri suggestions to do automations in the shortcuts app... But specifically what I'm trying to do is have it set up so I can use Siri to turn on and off the discotainment and automatically play music. And I can for the most part, but I can't select any specific lighting preset for the discotainment. It will just turn it on with whatever lighting set up you had it on last. It would be more fun if there was a way for me to say something like "hey Siri, let's have a christmas party" and in shortcuts it opens the discotainment feature, select the Christmas themed lighting setting, turns it on, then plays my christmas playlist. For now, I just can't be that specific..Version: 3.4.1

Great app for a great priceI’ve been using this app for many years to control over 50 lights and devices and never had any issues. I started using this app when I had 5-6 lights but over the last few years as my lights have grown this app has still been able to control everything as I want to. It does take a little practice to get use to it but once you know what to do its a breeze. It is much better than the Philips app and the developers respond really fast to any queries you have. I used to purchase certain features every year but now as with many other apps ConnectHue has a yearly subscription. I was more than happy to support the developers by getting the annual subscription (for a very reasonable price btw) for an app that I use really often. Great work team!.Version: 4.13.0

A must have for Philips Hue usersApp runs smoothly, all add ons work as expected, dev FREQUENTLY updates with new features that make the hue experience better. The dimmer programmability alone makes this app worth the full price, but every feature included with this app is centered around effortless usability in real day to day situations. For instance, my bedside dimmer is programmed to switch certain lights off, my bedroom to a specific night scene and a timer for the bedroom to go off 3 mins after, all with one press of one button, and only past a certain time in the evening. Timers can be based on your location- I have "all off if I'm away" timers set to run every few hours when I'm away from home. This app gets you pretty close to running a full blown home automation server, and it does this pretty much independent of the phone!.Version: 3.0.0

Best Watch app for HueThis app is fantastic. Up front I want to say the support team helped me out over the holidays, which I didn't at all expect, and were extremely helpful and patient. This app is the best iOS citizen Hue app I've found — far nicer than the official Hue app, which feels like an alien transplant. The Siri Shortcut support is really great for integrating into other automations, and the customizable Today widget is really nice for having just what you need where you want it. The standout feature to me is the Watch app. It has dimmer buttons instead of Apple's fiddly scrolling brightness control, and your scenes/animations/colors. The app is really well done, very quick and responsive, and to me, faster to use than the endless scrolling of Apple's Home app (and more feature rich). The only feature I wish the app had is the ability to add a fade in/out timer to scenes and colors, so I could cross-fade from the Watch app. However, what I most wanted was the ability to fade on and off my lights on command instead of only sunrise/sunset, from my Watch, and I got that using animations. Extremely pleased, except for the money I spent before finding this app..Version: 4.0.5

Best hue app easilyLove it. Love everything about it. Surprised philips hasn’t bought you guys out by now as it’s amazing how well iconnect hue works compared to philips app. I’d explain why, but if you’re reading this just know I’ve tried maybe half a dozen of the most highly rated hue apps on the AppStore and this is the best. Hands down. No seriously it’s better so don’t waste your time with others and since it costs like $50 for a color hue bulb, it’s most definitely worth buying this and all of the in app purchases (maybe like $15-20?? For all) again specific price not relevant due to quality of what you get. Seriously, I paid for all of the additional features, even those I knew I wouldn’t use simply because I want to contribute to the iConnectHue and ensure they never stop supporting this app. Ok. So now to the development team. I have one feature request/question (ok two requests) 1. Is it/could it be possible to allow users to create templates for switches and motion detectors? My switches will sometimes disconnect from the bridge for no apparent reason, requiring reset and re-detection in iConnectHue which results in loss the custom profile I use for each dimmer switch. This requires me to re-create the template and it would be great if I could create baseline switch profile that I can apply to new or reset switches. 2. Longer timer. Last I checked the timer maxes out at like 2-3 hours or so. I’d like to have a longer timer for those days that I need to create a one time “light alarm” that I don’t want to recur. For example, my lights typically turn on at 7:30 am, but I need to get up 6:00 tomorrow to get ready for an early meeting or whatever. Rather than creating a new alarm, or altering the alarm I’ve created, I’d prefer to just set a 7 hour alarm before bed just for tomorrow. Thanks.Version: 3.1.8

Solves all the issuesI’ve had the iConnectHue app since I got the first bulbs. I also purchased a handful of other apps. IConnectHue looks good, runs quickly and has a great flow that makes a lot of sense to me. But, there’s one advantage of this app that is SO huge that I’m almost reluctant to say it because I feel the gang there at iConnectHue deserve all good things for this one and the competition will try to take it. So simple but so powerful is the fact that lights can exist in more than one group. It’s major. When you start making scenes soon you see that without this feature you can’t do anything good and the app would be like the rest of the apps (save for running great and looking even better)..Version: 3.2.5

A MUST have for Philips Hue Systems—Keeps Getting Better!I was extremely skeptical to open up my Hue bridge to a third party app, but after having some issues with bridge memory & some of the dials, I took the plunge in for a pro with this. Plus, I saw it listed in the Hue app and blogs as a noteworthy third party app, which put my privacy concerns at ease. Simply put: this app unlocks the full potential of your Philips Hue system. Once you have it, you won’t want to go back! This app gets all the features you want, well before Hue gets them out on their main app. And still, this app manages to provide even more. With the most recent update, the Hue app allowed for widgets. But those widgets are seriously limited. Even using the Home app widgets, you’re missing out. But with the latest iConnectHue update, you can create a full dashboard of interactive widgets, complete with refresh buttons, so you can check the status of lights, increase brightness, run a scene (or toggle through several), turn on and off groups, zones, lights…in other words: you can use the app without opening the app. Now, I know iConnectHue doesn’t necessarily have the most “polished” UI, but if there’s any trouble, the user guides really will answer your questions. You’ll be on your way to setting up complex commands or button presses on devices that are limited when used in the main Hue app. (For example, my Lutron Aurora’s can now do so much more, serving as an excellent mini dial). There are so many great things about this app that even after all this time, I haven’t unconverted all of its features. They have sound and light mixes as well as their own scenes. But you really can get granular control over whatever you want with iConnectHue. The fact that it’s still ahead of the game is incredible and worth the reasonably priced Pro upgrade. I just want to thank the team for their job well done and recommend this to everyone!.Version: 5.5.1

Great for old phone users.I checked the app out because it was iOS 10 and later. My phone is a 6s+ and updating anymore would slow my phone down. At first I thought my only options were to spend a grand on a new phone or buy a smart hub and have everything I say be recorded. Both options were way more expensive than this app. I can't speak for it in comparison to the Hue app...because I couldn't even download it. I needed iOS 11 to turn my lights on. The user interface is straight to the point but gives tips to ensure you figure it out. Love it, you saved me the disappointment of returning my bulbs and saved me the frustration of buying more products..Version: 3.3.1

Makes Accessories Functional, Buy It.We smart light people spend too much time trying to make our lights do what normal lights do... this fixes that 100%. The hue app doesn’t let you do much with the add on devices and the routines are not intuitive. This app makes routines super functional, and turns switches into actual useful things that do what you want, when you want. Completely replaces an actual dimmer switch 100%. Beautiful. Makes it easy for other people in the home to use the home automation and smart lights because now the switches just do everything they need to do and the routines (timers) allow perfect customization. Throw in all the other cool stuff this thing can do and holy crap. I need more smart lights, because this is amazing. Honestly I don’t write reviews hardly ever, but everyone should know this thing exists and is well worth every penny. You spent hundreds on hue lights, spend $6-10 more and make the most of it. So glad some one built this to take full advantage of what Philips should have done..Version: 4.1.1

Upgrade to the Philips AppThis app is much better than the application provided by Philips, which has enhanced my user experience many times over. There are some cool scenes provided at no cost and others you can purchase. You can control multiple Philips Bridges through a single interface which in my case makes things much easier to operate since I have a Philips Bridge on each floor of my home. The application provides notifications when there are firmware updates for Bridges, Devices and Bulbs. Last but not least the UI(User Interface) on iConnectHue is laid out in a much more user friendly way than the default Philips Hue app..Version: 3.2.2

Na Yea Its greatRead the negative reviews. The complaints are about either the app costing money, or it being too complicated. If the 5-15 dollars a year price is outrageous, these complainers should probably also reconsider buying 50 dollar light bulbs. Too complex? It has a lot of awesome functionality other apps don’t have. It’s gonna be a little complex. You may have to read for 10-15 seconds to learn about a function, be ready for that. If you can spare 5-15 for a subscription, and are able to maintain focus for an entire paragraph, then this app is hands down the best..Version: 4.6.2

Best Hue app, but too nickel-and-dimeyThis is the best app for Hue lights. I’ve bought them all. So get this one. Now just some critique to help the developer: - Setting switch behavior is amazing, and the best feature probably. Only thing is it feels tedious setting them up. Maybe just cause I just reprogrammed two switches, similarly (for each nightstand), and took forever. Maybe a copy function where you could sub out the bulbs? - Just too many separate in-app purchases. I can’t think of another app that has this many, many for similar things. It’s not even the amount of money. I’m happy to pay for it. Just annoying to get prompted to upgrade for every single feature. - I just want the app to cost money upfront. Or have one in-app pro purchase if necessary. Don’t split it into 20 paper cuts. - Rather see you charge for features or theme packs. Not both. Pick one to make money. The other should be free to sell the other. - This really needs family sharing, which I get isn’t possible with in-app purchasing. But it’s crazy everyone in my family needs to pay for all the in-app purchases..Version: 3.6.2

The best Phillips Hue app that exists todayI started using this app over a year ago because the original Phillips Hue app was so horrible. The support is terrific and you get regular updates. It’s the only app that I know you can easily configure the light switches with all sorts of push and/or hold combinations for each button. It’s well worth the money that you’ll pay for this app and probably does more than you will ever use it for. And if you are reading this and not sure about getting it, know that you are getting a complete replacement for the Hue app plus lots of extra config options too!!.Version: 3.1.6

Long time satisfied userI’ve been using iConnect for a couple years now and pretty much think it’s the bomb. I’m reminded of how good it is every time I try to do something from within the Phillips Hue app as iConnect offers so much more. My three favorite things are the magic scenes, the way it can program my hue light switches for multi-tap, and the sunrise animation. If you’re like me and have several Hue lights, Magic scenes are magic. Basically, you pick a few base colors or really hues (or use hues they pick) and through two basic main controls (spinning a color wheel and sliding a saturation bar) and a couple settings (how varied brightness and saturation should be) you can experiment with distributing those colors. As you spin the color wheel those colors shift around the room at the speed of light. It’s really magical. Using magic or whatever means, you can then save and tweak patterns you like in the scene’s menu (which is like the one in the Phillip’s app). After programming several scenes, you can go to the devices menu and program your Hue switch. (Buy one. This app makes it great.) What’s nice here is that you can program different tap and tap/hold patterns to make it so that the switch can bring up several scenes by tapping through them. I programmed mine to have two nice dim scenes (one for TV, another that sets a romantic mood) and one bright scene (for getting work done). The taps are not restricted to any particular room. So, for example, maybe the first taps can set the lights in the living room and the last bring up all the lights in your house so you can clean up after that party. It’s brilliant. In the winter, when I wake before the sun rises, I like to run the long sunrise animation. I set it up for the whole house so that over the course of a half hour, my house slowly brightens from a dim orange sunrise to a full on bright “get to work” white. Of course, I run this while having my coffee and reading the news off my iPad. What a pleasant way to wake and let me know where I am in my winter wake up ritual..Version: 4.5.0

POWERFUL app with the BEST interface for managing the Hue Lighting EcoSystemOver the years of growing my home Hue Lighting I have tried virtually all those claiming to help you master all that Hue can do… but this app is by far “Best in Class!” …and the developer is highly responsive and continues to improve and incorporate new features and refinements. There is a richness and depth in all aspects of managing all the Hue lighting assets as well as any and all Hue compatible products. I only wish the developer would port this to the Mac as well..Version: 4.12.4

Does everything you wish the hue app didThis app is awesome, (such an understatement). It is EXTREMELY versatile, and if it doesn't do something, you might only have to wait. Every update has new options so that it is always keeping up with new hue products and what users want! If you have suggestions they seem to honestly care about your opinion. (Actually, I almost feel guilty that every update has a few new big things and I didn't pay anything for it; almost like I'm stealing something or they made a mistake.) My favorite things are, among others: customizable "animations" where you can run a program of lights at a specified color and brightness (I use for Dawn simulation/light therapy in the morning, and to create a flashing light alarm for when I need to remember to do stuff and dont want to be startled by a phone noise alarm), and an array of options for what every button does on the dimmer switches (actually the original reason I got this app!). I really like how the add-ons are optional instead of charging one standard fee. I don't need the option to use multiple bridges so I am thankful that I was able to save my money by NOT bundling it in. For being a college student, that kind of thing may make or break my decision to buy an app. When I originally bought the app I thought $5 was a lot and I begrudgingly went for it. After figuring out and getting used to how to use it, I was REALLY happy I bought it. I got way more out of it that I expected to! I also went ahead and bought some of the other add-ons and they definitely get used. The app is a little complicated at times (figuring out what is where, how to create what you need, etc...) but there is an information button on every page. If you're still confused (which, admittedly, I often am), you can contact them and get help within a few days. I think for how many things this app can do and how user-friendly it still is, they do a really great job! Anyway, tldr: this app is super versatile and is continuously updated with new features and user suggestions. I am so impressed with this app and give my whole-hearted recommendation!!.Version: 3.1.3

The Philips Hue app & clearly a work of love.This app is the only app to use. It is wonderfully written and has a user interface far better than other apps I’ve tried using. It allows you to use the basic functionality of Hue switches, and will also allow you to go farther in implementing sophisticated switch behaviors. I’ve been using the app for 3 years now, and it just keeps getting better..Version: 5.13.0

A decent app but not as good as it used to be to beI use to love this app because it offered a lot more flexibility when it came to setting up hue switches… it seems like it’s starting to lack behind the default hue app in some ways though. The thing that bothers me most is that in the hue app you can set a button to cycle through up to 10 screens. This app only allows 5. I’m actually surprised they haven’t updated this yet. I do like that this app has more options for press and hold though. The other thing is this app doesn’t let you save hue effects to a scene. The default hue app does allow that. I do like that it has more options for selecting color temperatures… would be nice if you could type a value in though… would be a lot easier than trying to get the slider just right. This app also doesn’t support grouping scenes into folders, or even arranging scenes like the default app does..Version: 5.8.4

Please make a video!Guys, I spent a lot of time on this app why not take and put a video to supplement your hard work it would do two things you would demonstrate how the app works, and show off the features reading is very challenging for me, because I am horizontal nystagm Take your time and make a good video please please please please thank you for your hard work. Terrific I just want a video to explain everything please.Version: 5.0.2

Amazingly powerful huenessI can’t say enough good things about this app. The magic scenes are great for creating animations with varying colors, and you don’t even have to edit them when you add/remove lights from the room. Setting up motion sensors and light switches works much better than the official Hue app. The in app purchases all feel like something that’s worth buying. The developer continues to improve the app consistently, adding new one-time purchases that I’m happy to buy..Version: 3.2.2

The upgrades are hugeI have been using iConnectHue for a few months now, and have found it to be the only app out there capable of organizing and controlling the hue lights with animations. With the most recent update I was so excited to see they fixed alot of small bugs, upgraded the UX and UI, and the connection to the lights seams to be a lot faster and responsive then in previous versions. I highly recommend this app, and it is leaps and bounds better then the stock HUE app..Version: 3.0.0

Worth 100+ dollarsI have 45 hue lights of all kinds that I have been purchasing over the years and just recently discovered this app and it’s amazing. Several things that I had just accepted couldn’t be done(light animations, grouping across rooms, advanced setting for remote controls or timers, etc) are available and work beautifully in this app. For those complaining about the in-app purchases, I believe this app is easily worth 100+ dollars..Version: 3.5.1

Fun and functionalI love this app as a companion to my increasing Hue-covered house. I feel like I've gotten more than my money's worth and I have just scratched the surface of its capability. The interface can sometimes be a bit challenging, and I'd love to see some stronger integration to homekit and Siri. All that said it's a great app and we'll worth the subscription, especially if you've got kids in the house who like to be wow'ed by animated colors and impromptu dance parties complete with light show..Version: 4.3.1

Takes Hue to another levelGreat app! I bought the version that includes everything and it is completely worthy. What’s a few dollars more after spending so much on the lights themselves? I love the animation feature and the flexibility you get for accessories such as the dimmer and motion sensor. I’m not sure if the developers will be adding more features. If so I cannot wait to see what’s next. As a developer myself I tip my hat to you guys. Great work!.Version: 4.5.1

Simple & Extensive; Multiple HubsThis is my primary app for my Hue ecosystem; over 50 lights, dozen switches & sensors, and 2 hubs. My Hues co-exist with Z-Wave lights and devices on Wink, but I still prefer to switch over to iConnect for better control of my Hues—more precise control, more responsive, and straight forward user interface. The Add-Ons are well worth the small price. After $20-50 for each light, a few dollars for a great app feature doesn’t really need any thought..Version: 3.1.8

Hands down best hue app out there.I’ve never written a review of an app before but just wanna say real quick that this app is so good. It feels like the team is updating it constantly and making it better. It has so many easy to use and cool features, especially the custom animations!! Those are definitely worth it. I feel like a mini James Turrell out here! Thank you iConnectHue team!!.Version: 4.17.0

And it keeps getting better!I've tried a lot of Hue apps, along with hundreds of home automation apps. IConnectHue still surprises me with new features constantly. By far the best light app I've used yet! Been using it for a year now. The only thing I would update would prob be the user interface. But it's difficult to get all those features into something clean and simple and intuitive. Fantastic animations..Version: 3.3.0

Minor faultTldr: there will always be at least one bulb that renders pallets/animations incorrectly with wrong color. Developer said it was impossible to program color scenes and animations without fuzzing on the colors, and that some bulbs would always display incorrect colors. They’ll either be white or an off shade of the intended color. I’ve not seen that limitation in other apps. Regardless, the app doesn’t do what I want it to do so it doesn’t work for me. You probably won’t care about it though..Version: 4.9.3

Need to spend more moneyWell It works... Kind of. Because buying the app from the store wasn’t enough. You still have to pay a lot more money for functionality. Even though the developer claims that the basic functionality is worth the $5 dollars, and he may have a point from he’s prospective. At the end of the day, the basic version does not do anything more then the free apps that you may already have... just change the price to 20$, give us everything, and stop hiding in app purchases.Version: 3.2.5

Best Business Model :)The guy who wrote “Bad Business Model” is a clown. Obviously he doesn’t know anything about hard work and a fantastic app. Super easy very simple to navigate and the updates are great..Version: 3.5.0

Love it!!!Absolutely love this app. To people that are complaining about a subscription … if you can afford a $50 light bulb … you can afford a subscription..Version: 5.8.5

Excellent AppThis is one of the best apps I have ever used and is without a doubt the best app for controlling Phillips Hue lights. A highly recommended and stable app. A+! I have reached out to the developer for help a few times in the past and was surprised to get useful help and support..Version: 5.0.2

Great App and SupportIt is not often you find an app that is great, and consistently improving, but also supported when you have questions. This is that app. Love all the things I can do with my Hue lights now..Version: 4.6.4

Best app for HueIt does so many things. You don’t need any other app..Version: 4.4.1

Widget needs iOS 14 updatePlease update the widget to the iOS 14 style widgets!.Version: 4.6.1

Incredibly useful appThis app is amazing. It fills in the gaps on simple things like using a switch to activate a scene, bypass motion sensors, and act as a toggle (if on turn off, if off turn on). There are features that require in app purchases, however the value you get with the base app is definitely worth the initial cost and I’m sure the add-ons are equally worth it. The developer has added so much to this app, Philips’ app doesn’t even come close..Version: 4.1.2

Great app, 100% worth itUnlocks a lot of stuff, saved me from having to return my motion sensor... Philips and even Apple’s options for motion sensors are terrible. Animated scenes are my new favourite. App lacks a well thought out UI and UX but once you set everything up it’s not the worst..Version: 4.1.1

Best hue app I've triedFeatures keep on getting added. Still very impressed with this app. Would recommend the remote access add on. Greatly improves automation. It really lets you get into the guts of your home control..Version: 3.7.2

Best app I’ve ever spent money onAmazing features and support. I can’t even imagine using Hue bulbs without this app.Version: 3.6.0

Highly recommendedThe best Hue application. Constant development and support for new products whether Philips or a third party. Big thanks to the development team! Using with bridges in 4 different locations - with in-app purchase for multi bridge support..Version: 3.6.0

Clean and beautiful appGreat app with multiple hub support, easy programming and grouping. Well done!.Version: 3.5.0

Cool features, not the most usable appThe good: accessory configuration is way better than Hue app and other 3rd party apps The bad: I find the UX/UI quite confusing at times. Scenes: you will now have 3 different types. Hue scenes, HomeKit scenes, iConnectHue scenes, the one being one being the only one compatible. I’m not sure I feel like starting recreating all my scenes if I move away from iConnectHue..Version: 3.5.2

The best Hue app for iOSThis is, by far, the best Hue app for iOS. Feature rich and easy to use. If you’re using Hue you need this..Version: 3.3.1

Needs improvementsNice app but needs more improvement and bugs fixing, for example every time i click once to choose a scene it takes me to editing colour even though the instruction say click once to activate the scene and click twice for editing!!! Needs more dynamic animations ideas like candle, rain, thunder, colour wheels rotation, disco animations not only scene....plus the app is a bit laggy and slow..Version: 3.4.1

Lighten upI have to admit it is taking me a while to learn how to navigate this app; however I am in my early 40’s and am trying to keep up with technology and terminology. That being said when time is taken to perfect what one wants to do the results are worth it..Version: 3.3.1

Very functionalAbsolutely wonderful, so many dynamic ways to use it with the included transitions and settings. This application more-less completes anyone’s Hue set-up. Worth every penny! Thanks for the app!.Version: 3.3.1

Best app for Philips Hue!Great app, the free version has enough functionality to make it useful, but go and buy the in app purchases. They are really worth it too..Version: 3.3.1

Worth every penny.This app is invaluable to me in many ways. It bugs me to read reviews that complain about how much this app costs and the upgrade process. Finally an app that makes the absolute most of what Phillips Hue can do. Very detailed control of almost everything I could possibly want to do with my many lights. The developer is quick to respond to messages and is constantly evolving what the app can do, and that is much appreciated. I have purchased every one of the IAP’s, and am perfectly happy with my decision. When someone puts this much time into making a full featured app that is actually useful, they should be rewarded. One request I have though... deeper control of the colours in discotainement. I’d prefer to choose a colour instead of a gradient. And to choose that colour. Thanks!.Version: 3.2.4

THE App for automating lightsThere is so much to love about this app. The feature set is exceptionally deep. Especially appreciate the fine-grained customization possibilities of the Hue switch and motion detectors. The implementation of groups and scenes is also awesome. Thanks very much for as near a "pro" app as we have in the app store!.Version: 3.2.2

The superior Philips Hue appThis is the most feature-rich, robust, and sensible Philips Hue app available. There are no others like it: its features are both deceptively easy to configure, and expansive enough for even the most particular among the tech crowd. What do I use this app for the most? Programming all the switches in my house. Good luck to anyone trying to do it with any other app, including the barely acceptable official app. This app is years of development time ahead of everything when it comes to editing switches. I highlight only this one superb advantage the app has over others, but it's genuinely got all other apps beat in every available feature category. If you've already invested hundreds or thousands of dollars on lights, don't suddenly go cheap on the app. You're not going to get this functionality elsewhere or for free. This developer has provided the Philips Hue community with the benchmark by which all other apps should strive to meet or exceed. As of now, no app comes close, especially the official one. Pay the paltry sum and actually realize the full potential of those smart lights you spent so much damn money on. I've bought all the addons despite not having a use for all of them, like multi-bridge support. This is a developer I do not want my lights to lose. Do yourself what's best and buy the superior Philips Hue app, otherwise known as iConnectHue..Version: 3.1.6

Exactly what I was looking forI am really enjoying this app. It has a bit of a learning curve, but what app doesn’t, really? It’s animations are totally what I was looking for. It has a limit of eight unique states or transitions for an animation, which I found slightly limiting, but other that that small preference, it’s been great so far.Version: 3.1.3

Pay Twice?The app is good. Very good. The best app for Hue by far. The app developers at Phillips should take a long look at this app. This is how there app should work. What the developers at Phillips wrote is garbage. A little pricey at 7 dollars but I don’t mind paying for a product that works as well as this one. That being said, if you also want it on you iPad, you’ll have to shell out another 7 dollars, plus the additional cost of the add on’s you may wish to purchase. That is the only issue I have with this app. Its what is keeping me from a five star rating for the app..Version: 3.1.4

Go buy it!!!I tried many apps for my Hue lights, and this one is my favourite! I'm surprised at what you can do with this app compared to the official Philips app. It's obvious the author likes to get all he can out of the Hue devices ☺️.Version: 2.9.1

You get what you want, if you pay for it.This app is exactly what I was looking for. A great way to create animated scenes with your hue lights. But there is a catch. The app is $7.00 up front, then the majority of the good content is hidden behind another in-app purchase. Many of these are $2.79 or more. I do recommend the app, but be ready to fork over a lot more money than you maybe anticipated, for an already expensive app..Version: 3.1.3

Best Hue app I've usedInterface looks great, has a lot of settings. Kinda in-app purchases hungry tho..Version: 2.9.1

Good functionsNot as good looking as some apps out there, but it has great functions that go beyond the official app's. This app allows the same bulbs to be used in multiple room combinations and scenes. The timers for sunrise and sunset and the sleep timer are great. Remote access is great. The only thing I go back to the official Hue app for is the Siri HomeKit functions. Would be useful have an easy way to enable random on/off when no one is home..Version: 2.9.1

Hue lightingHighly recommend this app Works just how you would like it Very happy with it.Version: 2.9.1

Amazing App. Well Worth the Expensive PriceLooking back, this is the best app + in-app purchase I have ever done on the iPhone. Once you buy it, you'll be extremely satisfied and wonder how you've been controlling your lights without this! Previously I was using about 4 apps. The official Philip Hue apps, Huemote and OnSwitch. I've also tried using all the other apps (paid and free). Each did one thing well but I had to jump between many apps. The reason I bought this app is because of the ability to program the dimmer remotes. The app did a fantastic job of programming my 7 dimmer switches. I was able to add custom behaviours to the buttons and configure it any way I wanted. I have remotes program to press the power button to turn on. Then press the power button again change to a different preset colour. If I press the off button, one group of lights turns off. If I hold the off button, all my Philips hue bulbs turn off in the entire home. The custom groupings works 100% better than the "rooms" Philips app uses. I can allocate the same light to multiple groups. Custom widget designer (in-app purchase) works really well. Allows for organizing and structuring your widget how you want it. It is very impressively done! Remote Access works well. Previously I always had to access the official app for this which didn't align with other app groupings. The animation is well built. Takes a bit of time to configure and play with, but colour cycling works well. Small quirk for stopping an animation, but that is minor. Presets are becoming my new favourite feature (after the dimmer configuration). Being able to create a preset for the lights, brightness, colours and then assigning it to a widget or remote. Been playing with the motion sensor now that the app lets you configure it in a more detailed way. Really like that the motion sensor can be ignored if the light is already on and set to a different colour. Overall, this is a fantastic app that will make most of the other Philips Hue apps obsolete. It may seem expensive, but compared to the price of the bulbs, it is a minimal fee that will allow you to get maximum configuration and use out of your Philips hue system. This app is especially critical if you have many bulbs and switches spread throughout your home..Version: 2.8.0

The best app for Hue usersUpdate: The app is still the best out there. Great new features continue to be added. When my phone contract was up recently, this app was a significant factor in my decision to stay with an iPhone. It really is *that* good. Original review: There's nothing better. The app is great and the developer responds to emails quickly. Well worth the price..Version: 2.6.5

The BestThis is simply the best app there is for the hue system!.Version: 2.6.1

Very nice appThe app does what's it suppose to..Version: 2.6.1

One smart app !!Im a developer of another Philips Hue app and i must admit this app has been appart of the bunch. They where first to support multi bridge and still rare app to properly support it. The latest idea to create dynamic effects using bridge timer is a clever idea !!! I raise my hat to developer(s) behind iconnecthue. Keep up that good work !.Version: 2.5.1

Best hue app out thereLove the interface and the app is miles better than the hue app. I've bought features I don't use just to support the continued production of this app..Version: 2.5.0

Best Hue app!Simply the very best Hue app out there. Love the extra functionality that this app provides and the fact that the app is always ahead of the curve. Multi-press programs for Hue Taps and dimmers make the app incredible. And remote connection is brilliant. You have a Hue? Get this app!.Version: 2.3.3

Great appRecently replaced the dos based x10 System with iConnect. This is the best. Thanks, Dennis.Version: 2.2.1

FantasticFunctional, practical with a well thought out UI. Lots of features but simple to use. Optional widget is highly customizable. Well worth the purchase price..Version: 2.2.1

Easily the best Hue app available.I have bought a whole range of Hue lights over the past month for my new condo (4 lightstrips, 3 standard bulbs and 4 lights for a track) and downloaded over a dozen Hue apps only to find most of them mediocre. Even the best apps I could find were clumsily designed as far as the UI went or would not have all the features I needed. I just discovered this app tonight and I am beyond blown away by it. It is simply the easiest, best way to control your lights especially if you have several of them. You can easily group lights, turn groups on and off, turn individual lights on and off quickly as well as control brightness and colour seamlessly, have presets that include the lightstrips (something the main Hue app didn't do), etc plus they all work with a detailed widget as well as the Hue Tap! None of this would matter if the UI was hard to navigate and understand but it is laid out in the most efficient and easy to manage way possible, with every group and light settings accessible in an instant. I can't emphasize enough how incredible the UI is especially after having encountered all the other Hue apps that couldn't figure out a good interface for quickly turning on and off/dimming/changing colours on the lights. If you have the Hue bulbs, this is the app to get and the only one you need for control of your lights (of course if you still want party lighting, keep an app like Hue Disco around). I deleted all the other general hue control apps that I had after an hour with this one..Version: 1.9.5

Must have app!If you own Hue lights, you need this. Bam! Way faster than stock Hue app. Keep up the great work!.Version: 1.9.0
