The UI offers improved visual feedback and easier on/off/brightness controls directly from the home screen.

Hue Lights brings you shared scenes and groups, comprehensive scheduling, sequences and powerful light controls. Create multiple "On" and "Off" schedules per scene. Tap a row to select a light, group, or scene. Use quick controls at the bottom of the screen. Long press a row for quick actions (on, choose color, edit, off).
Save scenes from any third-party app and use Hue Lights to activate these on your Apple Watch. Dynamically animate or schedule any scene from third-party apps.
All screens are optimized for your favorite iOS devices in portrait and landscape mode.
Hue Lights works well with any third-party app that saves scenes or schedules on the bridge. Do you have a favorite scene from another app that you use frequently?

Ratings and Reviews
Well made but glitchy
Looks like a really well made app, good user interface. Lots of cool options for animations and sequences. The only problem is that it doesn’t really work properly. When I set schedules for a certain time, the lights don’t update, I tested it 5 times with no luck. In order to activate a scene, pressing it or holding it and pressing “on” won’t turn on the scene. I end up having to go into edit for the scene and pressing on the light I’m trying to change and then it will finally turn on. So, either it is glitchy or just a completely non-intuitive design (pressing “on” doesn’t turn on the scene). If they fixed these problems I would gladly use the app and pay for the upgrades to support the devs. Also would be cool to put sequences on a schedule.. but would need to fix the schedule function first.
Developer Response ,
You may have 2.4 GHz interference which is causing issues with scene activation. Try to increase the distance between your Philips Hue bridge and WiFi router. In some cases you may need to change your ZigBee channel. When you tap a scene to turn it on you should see an instant response. Schedules are stored and executed 100% on the bridge. If the scene is not turning on when the schedule triggers, make sure your time zone is configured. Tap Settings => Bridge Information => Time Zone to view and/or edit your time zone. There is a FAQ at http://huelights.com/faq.html that has step-by-step instructions for creating a scene and scheduling it. If you need further help, support is available 365 days/year.
Works with Hue v1 bridge (too) !
Thanks for the well made app! I am able to continue using my gen 1 lights and bridge 😊
Fantastic App
Somebody in a Facebook group recommended this as a way to pair some bulbs that were paired with another bridge at another house with my new one.
It worked fantastically and saved me a ton of wasted time! I’m going to look into the in app purchases just out of thanks that the pairing worked so well!
Developer Response ,
Thanks for the feedback. It is a good idea to write down your bulb serial numbers for future reference. If you ever need to move them to another bridge you can try inputting the serial number or using Touchlink.
