## Hue Thunder for Philips Hue Description
Thunder for Philips Hue done right. Finally.

Meet the most spectacular and realistic Thunder Ambiance app available for Philips Hue. It&#039;s truly immersive. 

Hue Thunder provides an unique thunder simulation in various settings. Every time you start one of the ambiances it will be different and unpredictable. Al light effects have been precisely created and synced with thunder sound to create and impressive simulation with your Philips Hue setup. It will impress everyone.
Hue thunder can also be used to train pets to get used to thunder sounds and lightning flashes.

Our unique node based soundscape engine, which is behind the beautiful designed and intuitive user interface, is truly innovative. It uses techniques which are used by top game designers and audio engineers to mimic nature&#039;s way and randomness. On top of that our soundscape apps use a unique and simple to use occurrence slider to let you decide how often a specific bird or other sound is used in the preset. Still it&#039;s totally unpredictable when a specific sound is being heard therefore producing an amazingly natural sound experience. It can run for hours on end without getting repetitive like other sound engines do. 

Choose from the following thunder presets and themes:

Thunder presets:
- Light drizzle.
- On a rainy day.
- Heavy rain pours down.
- Light thunder storm.
- Inside the thunder storm.
- Heavy thunder storm.
- Tornado Alley.
- Hurricane mayhem.

Thunder Ambient presets:
- A damp rain forest.
- At the beach after a warm day.
- Staring out the window in a busy city.
- A walk in the city under the umbrella.
- Bad weather camping at the lake.
- Storm over NYC.
- After the storm.
- In the car.
- Bike ride through Amsterdam.

The following elements can be altered during playback:
- Sky brightness.
- Sky On/Off
- Thunder brightness.
- Thunder occurrence.
- Environment volume.
- Thunder volume.

Other features:
- Bluetooth and Airplay supported with delay compensation.
- Sleep timer to safely fall asleep with a stormy fading background. Lights turn off after sleeptimer is finished.

 (Hue Thunder also works without Philips Hue, but obviously without light effects).

## Hue Thunder for Philips Hue Reviews in United States

### *---- "Nothing changes"
This app is useless. The lights turn white-ish. Thats it. They don’t change. They don’t mimic lightening. It’s stupid.
-- jggnkj, 2024-10-26

### ***** "Storm lovers ❤️"
If you enjoy storms then you will like this app. I stream it through my home surround or HomePod and the light effects combined with the audio are very impressive!
-- sun/moon/stars, 2024-04-17

### ****- "4 stars because of the limited airplay ability."
Good graphics, simple controls (for the most part) I&#039;m still learning it.
It won&#039;t let you play through more than one set of airplay speakers. 
I don&#039;t know if this a app problem or apple problem.
I&#039;m 90% sure the app is limiting you.
-- Blackfire, 2023-12-22

### ***** "I love it"
I’ve seen a lot of the apps that say they work with hue lights but alot of the reviews seem to say these apps are really shady and don’t work well with lights or other reasons so I have been hesitant to buy any until this one. I used to put on a 12 hour YouTube video of thunderstorms but when I found this app it replaced the YouTube videos immediately. I like this app because you can customize alot of the setting like how loud you want the thunder, rain, wind individually and how often you want thunder strikes and even the brightness of the lightning or sky on your hue lights. I find this app is great for those that like to sleep to thunderstorms. I connect my phone to my surround sound via Bluetooth and then only turn on my hue strip behind my tv so it gives just enough light to look like lightning coming from a window. Ever since I’ve bought it this is now my nightly routine. 

Personally I would like to see a bit more customization with the thunderstorm scenes. As it stands you can set the “occurrence” of thunder strikes but even turning it all the way up doesn’t necessarily mean there are alot of thunder sounds. I think the app does a good job of mixing small and medium and big lightning strikes in together randomly but I’d like to see a setting that allows a certain  number of lightning strikes and thunder sounds per minute or something like that. All in all it’s a good app. It offers 17 scenes ranging from weather to city things and rain forests. In the future I hope they branch out to soundscapes like ambient forest or wolves howling during s full moon or even whale singing. But aside from my future hopes of the app, great for helping you sleep to thunderstorms with your hue lights! Haven’t had a problem with the lights and the app working together since I bought it!
-- Reaper 0118, 2022-10-18

### *---- "Needs Smart Bridge"
This does not work with Bluetooth Hue Bulbs alone, you need the Hue Bridge. This was not in the description.
-- Mozek, 2022-08-04

### *---- "Way way over sold"
This wasn’t anything like the ads. It was really lame to be honest and I have Hue all over the house. It could have been better by far. Don’t waste your money. I’d be embarrassed entertaining friends with this.
-- Down for the ads, 2022-06-08

### ***-- "Could be better"
It’s definitely not a bad option if you are looking for a thunderstorm app but the timing on the lights isn’t the greatest and they are slow to come on and off (this could be a hardware limitation) and for 3.99 a bit expensive for how simple there should be a way to do a slider for how far the storm is like 0 miles -10 miles Also give you the 3D experience like on the main hue app you can put in where in your room the lights for audio sync that would be a good addition to this app to make it worth the 3.99
-- Zack Dunphey, 2022-01-25

### *---- "Fails to mention bridge required"
The app may be good, but with no hue bridge, it doesn&#039;t do anything with your lights
-- random836302, 2021-10-25

### ***-- "Okay for a little while…"
These collection of soundscapes are decent at best. Just don’t run them for extended period of time (greater than 2 hours, not sure exactly how long). After which something controlling the lights freezes, but the sounds keep playing. At which point any HomeKit lights are all placed in the default room, and given the names of default hue light. A work around I have discovered is to open the Hue (official app) and sync Hue with HomeKit. It’ll give an error saying already synced or already exists. Down side being you’ll have to group your lights again.
-- ArcticThunder, 2021-07-23

### **--- "Works, Neat for a while, Creates “phantom” light that shows in other apps."
App is pretty neat. The effects are cool with a Bluetooth speaker so the sound is more full. It was fun for 5-10 mins but the novelty wore off quickly. 

The app created a “phantom” room or entertainment area or something on the hue bridge called “ThunderG” which I can find no way to remove. It appears on all Hue-supporting apps (including on our Vivint panel… annoying) except the official Hue app. I can find no way to delete it except completely factory resetting the Hue hub. 

Worst of all somehow the ThunderG room has been turning on randomly during the day for us despite it not being used in our automations. This continues to happen even after removing the app from my phone so I don’t think it’s specific to the app itself, but it certainly never happened until we tried this app… Now I’ve got to figure out how to fix it because we keep getting woken up at 3am when the lights turn on.
