## OnSwitch for Philips Hue Reviews in United States

### *---- "No One-Time Purchase Option"
Nuff said.
-- Meta Master 111, 2024-12-27

### *---- "Doesn’t work with LifX"
Doesn’t work with LifX … app can’t find any bulbs. I know I set it up correctly because LifX bulbs work fine with LifX app. 

I even spent money on some of the enhanced lighting features on this app and doesn’t work . Wasted money
-- Stef684873, 2024-12-25

### ***** "Simply the best"
Amazing App
-- TeboSerrano, 2024-12-24

### ***-- "Won’t run in background"
Love the options this app has but it won’t just run on its own. As soon as I lock my phone or iPad the animations stop. No background app refresh options. It would be nice if it could run the animations without the app having to be open and can set them while I’m away from the house like the Hue app.
-- HK2Chuck, 2024-12-20

### *---- "Disconnects from the hue bridge"
This app is totally disappointing. Each day it disconnects from the bridge and I have to add the hue bridge manually each time to have the lights visible. Why would any one even pay a premium of 39$ to use this app when many free apps are available.
-- Sedhz, 2024-12-08

### ***** "NFL GAME LIGHTS"
I thought it would look pretty bad, but it’s really well done. I wish the lights during halftime were just a tad warmer but that’s just being nit-picky. Well done, (On Switch) team!
-- L.A. Randy, 2024-12-06

### *---- "Unable to open after recent update!"
Was my absolute FAVORITE 
APP for my hue’s but since updating it i’m no longer able to open the app. When selected, screen flashes like it’s about to load app, but ‘crashes’ and bring me back to Home Screen.

REALLY hoping this is just a software bug and unrelated to me installing a VPN/ad-blocker.
-- Aoki~*•, 2024-11-29

### **--- "Don’t want/need the subscription"
What happened to unlocking individual light shows specifically? Is my app glitching or are we being forced to subscribe now?
-- troywise, 2024-11-25

### **--- "VPN"
If you use a VPN you can’t use this app.
-- Oliver James01, 2024-10-30

### *---- "Disappointed"
Worked OK for the first few months but nothing but glitches since.  Very disappointed, don’t see any reason to renew at this point.
-- akamsj, 2024-10-28
