WHAT THEY ASK FOR
  • 5 stars if you can add support for each zone following their own scene when the lights are turned on. 4★, Oct 14, 2026
  • Maybe with a bridge it's better but I only need a single lamp and a single feature and I need it to keep the setting I set. 2★, Oct 10, 2026
  • It would be nice if they took into consideration people using other popular apps like YouTube Music or Google. 3★, Sep 7, 2026
  • And if you want more than 10 lights you need a bridge too. 1★, Aug 15, 2026
  • love it, needs a second to connect but other than that, fairly responsive 5★, Aug 2, 2026
  • PLEASE ADD A TIMER SHORTCUT IN THE APP THAT LETS YOU TURN MOTION SENSING OFF FOR X MINUTES BEFORE SWITCHING IT BACK ON AUTOMATICALLY- CURRENTLY WE HAVE TO REMEMBER TO TURN IT BACK ON WHICH DOESN'T ALWAYS HAPPEN. 4★, Aug 1, 2026
  • THERE IS ALREADY A SHORTCUT TO TURN OFF MOTION SENSING, IT JUST NEEDS A TIMER OPTION ADDED. 4★, Aug 1, 2026
  • please add a quick reconnect or troubleshooter function. 1★, Jul 27, 2026

★★★★★Oct 23, 2026

Wow, no one wins with this app even 5 years later. My HDMI sync box just disappeared. I don't even want to try to add it again since it's kind of functional at the moment, I just can't update the entertainment areas or any of the features.

★★★★★Oct 23, 2026

Updaye since 6.3.1. Again, unable to sync with hdmi box... Update since v5.70.1: I have added one star because now I can finally comnect to the hdmi sync box from the app but ONLY when I am on the same VLAN as my box, which was not necessary before. Very inconvenient AND unsecure 🤬 Update since v5.69: Still unable to sync lights with hdmi box. SHAME! Update since v5.68.0: STILL NOT OKAY! They fixed the home but now the hdmi sync box won't connect, as mentioned here by other users. RIDICULOUS!

★★★★★Oct 21, 2026

Hub has an ”outlet” device type as well as a variety of lights. However, when reporting the device to an external service like Google Home, it reports outlets as lights instead of outlets and you can't override it. Lights have special behavior that is undesirable for outlets.

★★★★★Oct 21, 2026

I'm kind of bummed that I cannot install the hue app on my other Samsung devices such as a tablet that I just purchased a few years back because my tablet is obsolete now. Additionally, bummed that Philips doesn't make a computer application that you can control you lights. The computer application they make doesn't really control anything. I don't really know what it does except to control a few prebuilt-in parameters which are pretty much useless.

★★★★★Oct 17, 2026

rarely works with certain rooms. hue switch always fails.

★★★★★Oct 17, 2026
