Hue TV

It used to work for a while and now the hue bridge doesn’t synchronize with the app. I paid for this app a doesn’t work.

I have Hue Sync Box on my main TV but use a Lifx strip on my smaller TV in the sunroom. For fun, I downloaded this this week because I miss my Hue Sync box when I spend spring and summers out in the sunroom. No problem connecting with my Lifx bulbs (didn’t try Hue yet). It works well - the lag is barely noticeable and you can adjust the brightness and intensity. The only issue I’m having is the camera/focus box at minimum size is still too big for my 32” TV. So I get some black upper/lower areas of a movie and even some of the backs of my wall. I don’t have anywhere closer to the TV to position my iPad, but for my limitations (32” TV corner mounted at the ceiling) and the price it does the job. It works better on my iPhone X than iPod Air 2.

I’ve used this app for over a year now. It is a must for movie night. Easy connection. I use my iPad at the camera for light syncing. I have used my phone when needed with no issues. You just have to have a good enough angle to see the whole picture without being a distraction for your viewing. I normally use a coffee table or back corner of the couch. Needed update, being able to select where on the screen each light selects color from. Love this app

This app does not pick up my LIFX lights and I’m sure it won’t work for your either. Waste of money.

Attention everybody! This app is now obsolete. Hue actually makes a product now called Hue sync box, which is a physical hdmi device, it is f’n amazing and everything this app is not. My biggest gripes with the app was the lag time. Even if very little lag time, it’s disorienting. The lights must be truely in sync for it to be immersive and enjoyable. The lag time ruins the entire experience because the lights are always a scene or camera shot behind and most movies especially action movies switch the screen to a different camera very frequently. You also have to point the camera at the screen meaning u can’t use your phone while using the app

I was very surprised how well this actually works! If you are not using your phone or have a secondary device, this app is amazing! There is basically no lag in transition from screen to lights. There is multiple settings that can allow you to manually adjust the syncing if you feel like it’s just not quit enough or is too much. This is one of the best sync hue apps out there!

Not working recently!!! App does not trigger the camera at all! Please fix it!

If you’ve got an old iPad lying around, this can add some real ambiance with the LIFX Z or Hue Lightstrip.

I paid for the app it won’t sync to my LIFX bulbs. It isn’t picking them up at all.

You have to use your camera to steam live video feed to work the hue lights. Sad App = No Stars
