Could be 5 stars

Zero-Gravitas on

Australia

All it needs is a standby mode widget.

A really good app for Hue users

MicksMac on

Australia

I am very happy with this app. It allows me to control 2 houses seamlessly, auto-switching from local to remote access for the appropriate bridge. The tech support was fast and helpful. The only thing I don’t like is the size of the giant accessory icons; I can’t find any way to change this. It would be nice to see all of my devices on a single iPad screen.

Needs improvement

Snarkie333 on

This app has allowed for some powerful customisations, but the design and user experience on the official Hue app is much better. Gradient light strips are only controllable through scenes, which makes things difficult

Disappointed

Tom Tuttle on

Australia

Paid $6.99 for this and then I find things I had programmed in the previous version is unavailable for editing. These things are now an extra feature to be paid for.

Below average

Kire_ on

Australia

Not as good as the standard free app

Can't access Groups tab

Scalpel on

Australia

With the latest update, I'm not able to see the lights in the Groups tab on my iPad and iPhone.

Nickel and dimes

This app has an up-front cost. Scenes cost money. Functionality costs money. I even was given a limit of times I was allowed to copy my own scene without ponying up cash. Look guys, I get that development and maintenance costs money, but we’ve already paid our price of admission. You’ve got to start rolling more functionality into the base app and stop shaking people upside-down hoping for small change to drop out of their pockets. Way, way too many nag screens for a paid app.

Must have for Hue Lights

-chitty- on

Australia

This app adds so much extra features that is not available on the factory Hue app. Lot going to write a long review, just if you are interested google search or YouTube. Perfect for people wanting more out of there Hue lights. Well worth the money, as amount of work in building / maintaining this app would be very time consuming I would imagine.

Awesome app

Ovularteste on

I primarily use Hue lights with HomeKit and mostly put my motion sensor automations onto the hue bridge for responsiveness and restoration capabilities whenever I have to rebuild HomeKit due to its instability. I have 2 hue hubs and use motion sensors extensively. This app provides exactly what I need for advanced motion controls. Eg if a light is on, don’t run sensors; setting multiple time periods, setting motion overrides etc. things you can only do with formulas in Hue or other clunky workarounds. This stopped me having to actually write manual commands for my bridge. It is faultless in operation and regularly updated, almost to the point where it seems to be ahead of the Hue app itself with updates and support. Oh and I have widgets set so I can manually disable motion sensors if required with a single press(not normally required as my rules are quite robust) Highly recommend for more advanced config, ability to set groups across rooms etc. very good support documentation. I am surprised Signify have not bought this out and embedded it fully into their app, it is that good. Only criticism, actual direct control of Lights is a bit clunky, but I don’t really use it for that, only to create scenes etc. Also some more direct control over hub rules and ability to edit/delete would be useful but this is a bit of an edge case and I use another app for that if required.

Too many in app purchases

MGM1967 on

Australia

Very deceiving app with too many in app purchases Also not that easy to use as it claims Example us music sync is an extra in app purchase amongst many
