iConnectHue for Philips Hue App Reviews

This is the best Hue Lights app out there. I tried a bunch of Hue apps and was generally unhappy with the free ones. I bit the bullet and bought this app and it’s great. I also bought the Widget Editor and I’d definitely recommend it to you. There are a few bugs, but the developer is quick to make a fix and respond to questions. Most of the bugs seem to be associated with the Phillips bridge and its firmware.

I almost made my husband return the system as I found the Philips app too difficult to use. Finding this app was a game changer! I can finally get all of the bulbs (we have 10) to be the same and can group the bulbs in a way that makes sense to me. Well worth the money.

Having failed to really get my bulbs to work with Philips Hue App, I was delighted to find this. It is logical, easy to understand, and its creator is very responsive to questions and suggestions. A great App!

Love the update; this app is even better which I didnt think was possible! An absolute must for any Hue owner. Absolutely incredible; takes the place of the stock Hue app for everything except software updates. The widgets for the Notification Center are amazing; I control my entire Hue system without even unlocking my phone, and can turn on and off, select presets, see color bars, adjust brightness, etc. I have bought all major Hue apps and this is the only one I really use all day long for standard control. A must for all Hue owners.

This app was great before the latest update, but now it is near perfect. Configuring multiple presses on the hue tap is something I have been waiting on for a long time. And the most configurable widget is now even better with single tap on/off and displaying state. Phillips should just ditch their current efforts and just buy this app. Seriously, the official app is so lacking compared to this.

and all in app purchases if you use hue lights. Nothing compares.

Great app for controlling Hue. Ive bought all the in-app-purchases too, which ADD UP FAST! 1. For Notification Center widgets 2. For remote wifi access 3. For Apple Watch support 4. For iPad Notification Center widgets Are you serious? Come on, seems w little out of control. LOVE THE FUNCTIONALITY, but spent more on this app than most others.

Got this app to use it with the Tap remote. While it works ok the fading is a bit quirky... It starts fading nicely then jumps suddenly to 0%. Add the ability to "fade between 2 colors" instead of rainbow in a preset and 5 stars! I use a light behind my fish tank and I use other apps to simulate water moving but those apps need to stay running.

This app continues to get better and better with each update. The addition of Apple watch features is outstanding! I have a number of apps that work with my Hue lights. This is my go to app and the one I recommend using. The features this app offers is second to none and its super easy to use. The developer responds to questions and suggestions very quickly. If you have Hue lights look no further for an app to control them. If you have an Apple Watch you’ll enjoy it even more.

This by far my favorite watch app. So useful, continues to get better with fast updates. The voice recognition is great, especially when you have so many scenes that you can get lost. "Living room: Mellow" very easy.

Love this app. Its my favorite Hue app. But since the new update the widget only lets me have access to the "master" switch unless I unlock the phone. Doesnt that defeat the purpose of a widget? Back to 5 stars when this gets fixed.

Sometimes I even forget there IS a "real" Hue App. Others have said it better than me. This is simply THE best Hue app out there. Period.

Most of the time Im not able to turn on or off the lights in my different rooms from the Apple Watch. When I press the power button for a specific room, it will not react. I have to end up opening the app on the phone to turn on/off lights.

I have Hue bulbs in several rooms in my house (bedroom, living room, nursery, and office). I also have several hue apps. This one has the best UX by far. Its easy to create and control light groups, and set up presets for those groups. One thing I like is adjusting the brightness of individual bulbs by swiping up and down on the icon. You can also clone color and brightness from bulb to bulb by clicking and dragging. It also made it easy to set up the tap switch I just bought. It is occasionally glitchy when naming or renaming groups, but its worth muscling through.

The Philips Hue app is lacking in many ways but especially when grouping your Hue lights (it doesnt support groups!) iConnectHue handles groups and makes controlling your Hue lights very simple. I am rather new to the app so I have not used all the features but changing themes, brightness and colors is very quick and easy. I recently had a chance to try the geofencing feature and it worked perfectly. No more coming home to a dark house! It also has a great widget that is fully customizable. If I had one criticism it would be that it could use better documentation. There are a few things in the program that I have questions about but I havent located the answers. That said, this is the best app I have found to control my Hue lights and it is worth every penny!

If youre using Hue bulbs, youre probably the type that likes to tinker with things. This app is the most user friendly tinkering interface Ive found.

This app nailed it. It makes the Hue experience complete and should be used by anyone with one, or more, Hue products. The grouping feature is fantastic and the widget add-on is a must have addition. This is an excellent application. Kudos to the developer. I will be recommending this app to everyone.

If you are somebody like me, you would have thought that the regular Hue app is not that good. This app makes everything that the Hue app did wrong 100% better. Its got groups, presets, and so much more. I actually had a lot of fun with this app using alarms and made lights do rainbow colors. Overall, this app is really good, probably the best for Hue. 5 Stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Best app to have for your hue lights. Period! A few minor bugs with color representation on app, but overall great. Would be cool to add more transition programming similar to "Waves App" but really no complaints. Must get!

What a waste of money
