Get the best out of your Hue system!
Organize your Hue lights in groups, let them light up in your favorite colors, depending on where you are and how you feel. Drag & drop colors, or save them as favorite. Want to go to bed? Just start up the integrated sleep timer and close your eyes. Intelligent timers only act when you need them.
Have got a Hue Tap, Hue Dimmer or Motion Sensor and want more flexibility? Colors, Presets (scenes), sleep timers, brightness, blinking, on/off and (with animation editor purchase) even color animations! The motion sensor can either turn off or return to the last state on inactivity.
iConnectHue is also available for the iPad! Look for iConnectHue HD!
iConnectHue was made to be powerful, but still to solves complex tasks with relative ease to use. This all comes in a nice clean package! It's possibly the only app you will need for your Philips Hue Lights!
