  • Just keeps getting better!

    This app is still super underrated and I can’t believe it doesn’t even have 1k reviews yet. I’m a pro member and have about 30 lights throughout my apartment. I reached out to the company at one point recommending something and they responded probably within the same day teaching me how to do exactly what I was recommending but didn’t know was already a capability. This app does take some playing around and figuring out at first, but it has endless capabilities with being able to create all your own content! I just had the new update installed and saw this new AI feature which I had my doubts about. I tried it 1 time and it created exactly what I’ve been looking for and trying to create on my own for a few weeks. I just wasn’t getting it perfect yet, but the AI got it done and I created a magic scene from that one AI creation. I love this feature!! Thank you guys for continuing to improve and develop this amazing app. I will be a pro member for life❤️💛💙💜💚🧡
  • Order of magnitude better than the stock Hue app

    Which isn’t saying much, of course. But even if the official Hue app *weren’t* miserable, I’d still love iConnectHue. All kinds of thoughtfully-implemented features, but doesn’t take long to get the hang of.

    No other light automation app works nearly as well as iConnectHue. It gives you all the control you want, while also being thoughtful about being easy to configure and use day to day.
  • One lasting issue…

    For years now it seems like every month or two my remote access will return an error notification when I leave and return home. This means I have to open the app, go to remote access, log into my hue account through my email account, and tap “Allow Access”. This is really annoying. I’ve allowed it, why won’t it stick? I always have to wonder when I leave if my lights are actually going to turn off. It’s supposed to make life easy, not stressful…
  • Transforming Hue lights and Switches into magical devices

    iConnectHue has completely transformed my Philips Hue lighting experience. Before using this app, I was content with the basic functionalities of the Hue system, but iConnectHue has unlocked a whole new world of possibilities. The ease of creating and controlling light groups has made managing my home’s lighting setup a breeze. The animations are a game changer – they bring life to every corner of my house with mesmerizing effects that are perfect for any mood or occasion. What truly sets iConnectHue apart is its unparalleled customization. The gradient color picker and the Magic Scenes feature have allowed me to personalize my lighting like never before, creating atmospheres that are uniquely mine. The flexibility in controlling devices, especially the enhanced options for switches and sensors, shows the depth of thought put into this app. Moreover, the app’s design is intuitive and user-friendly. Whether on my iPhone or iPad, controlling my lights has never been more seamless or enjoyable. The regular updates, each bringing new features and improvements, show a commitment to excellence and user satisfaction.
  • I waited to make my review, now I am ready

    This used to be my fav app on iPhone. I have used this app for 4 years All of a sudden, without warning, most of the functionality is gone. I would have to pay a couple dollars a month to get that functionality back. I will never use an app that requires (essentially) a ransom payment for it to continue working. My biggest beef is the timer control (i.e; turn on and off at dawn and sunrise, respectively) is gone, just disappeared, kaput! No warning at all…way to go guys (NOT). Now I am off to find and learn an app that is as operational and intuitive as this once was. My review from about 4 years ago: The best out there and it keeps getting better. When I first got this app a couple of years ago, it was only slightly better than the Phillips version. Now, in June 22, 2021 I am ready. Although the app has a couple of minor idiosyncrasies, they are easily overcome. The developer of the app is constantly updating what appears to be his pride and joy. For the most part, the app is 99% intuitive. I have about 9 Phillips bulbs and about 5 more to go before I am complete. Get this app, it is far better than the Phillips version.
  • Great App

    I am deep in the hue rabbit hole. But only use this app for my management of the gear. I think I am tapping at a hundred bulbs, plugs, dimmers, and buttons. No security yet. I rely on iConnect Hue. Very powerful and stable to date. Been using for years. I bought the lifetime years ago. Now thinking of subscribing to support them. I did just find a bug, I think. Related to renaming devices. Might just be me, but I can’t figure it yet. I reached out for support. We will see what happens…. I have multiple hubs. Four. Works seamlessly. Except for a few Philips limitations, as though all were on one. Good stuff. Worth it.
  • The best Hue app on iOS

    iConnectHue remains the absolute best app for the hue ecosystem hands down. Those of us that have been using this app for years know it is incredibly reliable, feature rich, and 100% supported by its creator. Worth every penny!
  • Great App and even better customer service!
