iLightShow for Philips Hue

This app has been awesome for years and continues to get even better. Nicolas is a super responsive developer and is always helpful if you run into issues. A must-have app if you have smart lights and love music.

I was very underwhelmed with the Spotify integration of the official app. Not only is this compatible with more services than Spotify, it is awesome. Love the FX+ strobes and drops! This is what I was hoping for when I bought the Hue kit

Great app

I look forward to connecting my lights to this app every evening. It creates the perfect ambience. I especially love to map to the album cover feature which is available with the subscription. It is absolutely worth the money for me. Thank you. I’m not sure what other features may be available in the future but right now it works perfect for me.

I’ve tried lots of different Hue related apps for introducing a party atmosphere to my expensive home by far. This has been the app of choice even as I continue to experiment with others I find myself coming right back to ilightshow. The transformation is instantaneous. It is very accurate and it is a wild factor that everyone must have!

Most fun app I’ve downloaded. If you have hue lights and you are a music lover this is your app. It works better with Apple Music or Spotify but still worth it just using the microphone mode.

Literally bought LIFX bulbs because I heard this app lets them sync to YouTube music. Even advertises it does on the Android version’s description of this app - but I guess anyone with Apple is just screwed over from being able to sync with YouTube music. Unless you guys get YouTube music as an option on here y’all can kiss away my pro features payment.

I’ve tried them all. The microphone visualizers have improved over the years (including the feature in this app) but, there is still a tiny bit of noticeable latency and it annoys me to no end. The Apple Music integration is awesome. No visible lag between audio and visual. While we are mostly a Hue house, we do have some LIFX string outdoor lights. If I could sneak in one feature request ;) - is it possible to have groups of LEDs on the connected strands? Essentially allowing for multi-color for one beat, on the stand. Ex: 10 hue can lights I can group into 5 groups of 2. Anyone saying this is a “subscription scam” has zero clue the effort that has had to have been dedicated for this to work so well. 15+ years in mobile SW product development, first App Store review ever written. Great job 👏👏

I don’t typically leave reviews but this app is really amazing. I have used it for years, usually around Christmas. I love jamming to some Christmas music with a light show and this app has always impressed. But this holiday season I logged in to find major updates. The paid subscription is reasonably priced and really does an amazing job syncing the lights to the music. I have pretty much played it non-stop for the last week. I love it! Thanks developer!

I really love this app and how awesome it makes my Hue lights sync to hot jamz. My only gripe is that it doesn’t seem to function super well if the app is isn’t currently open on your phone. If the developers made it easier to passively sync and made “standard” mode look better than a baseline Philips scene, then I would gladly grant it 5 starts.
