You can now access the Hue AI assistant directly from Rooms and Zones screens to easily create scenes and automations tailored to your needs. You can also choose where the AI assistant is shown via Settings → App Preferences.

5.14.8:
• EASTER PACK: 8 great Magic Scenes - available for everybody until mid of April!
• Resolved a few problems

New in iConnectHue 5.14

We have some firecrackers for you - on your lights AND with the app! Here we go:

- Hue Sync Box support with Presets -

iConnectHue now supports the Hue Sync Box for Pro Members. The usual controls are easily accessible via the Dashboard, and we offer an exclusive feature: Presets!

Presets allow you to store your current settings for brightness, the Entertainment Zone, the vis mode and the intensity for easy recall, instead of always needing to set up everything manually.

This was a lot of work - not only to integrate, but also in the future to maintain and adapt over time as iOS and the Hue system evolve. Hence, this feature is available with a Pro Membership.
We likely will add more functionality in the future for the Sync Box, based on your feedback.

This is a beta feature! While we tested it extensively, we haven't yet had experience with it in the wider field. If you experience anything out of the ordinary, write us via the app, so we can improve it for you!

How to add your Sync Box: Go to "Devices" via the menu, select "+" on the top right and select to add a Sync Box.

- Firework animations (one set free until Jan 1) -

No smoke, no loud noises (your pets will aprove), but lots of visual fidelity!
They're free: This seasonal set is available until January 1. With a Membership, you'll have access to it throughout the entire year!

Remember: We also have two additional sets - "Happy new year!" and "Happy new yeah!".

With the animation upgrade, you can upload these animations to switches for instant replay, or run them with a timer to start them exactly when you need them!

- Other bright ideas -

* You can now edit the stop mode of Entertainment areas
* Better editing of Entertainment area in Discotainment Widget
* Updated device search wizard: You can also add new Bridges there by now
* We've polished a few things to make everything smooth for you

Heads up: If widgets or shortcuts act up, try restarting your device - it’s an iOS thing, not an us thing!

- We’d love your feedback! -

Enjoying the update? We worked hard to bring this to you — and your support keeps the lights on (literally)!

•• Give us five stars in the App Store! Even if you've rated before, a fresh review helps! ••

If you run into any issues, don’t hesitate, contact us from within the app under "Help & More"->Contact. You will surely get support! Need a quick check for a question? We also have an elaborate FAQ: https://iconnecthue.com/f-a-q/

We've added support for iPad multitasking on iPadOS 26. Sizing the app window is now supported and the app will adjust its content accordingly. This should make it possible for you to use iConnectHue alongside other app windows, we will fine tune certain circumstances in future releases.

Although this has been quite some work, this is free for everybody!

- Dutch translation -
The Netherlands are the country where Hue originates from, hence we're proud to present iConnectHue in Dutch - Welkom!
We would like to thank Mike Evers for his support with this translation!

• Works around iOS 26 white icon bug

New in 5.12
Ready to go Pro? iConnectHue now supports the brand new Hue Pro Bridge!

- Pro Bridge support -

We were quick, hopefully quick enough for your switch to the all-new Pro Bridge. You can add and use it by today!

It may look small, but making it work reliably took major changes under the hood. We’ve updated and fine-tuned a lot to ensure everything runs smoothly for you. New devices always mean a lot of research, redesign, and testing - and we’re committed to getting it right for you!
(Included for Members, w/ 2025 upgrade or when purchased in 2025)

- Pro Bridge migration -

This is how you migrate from your old V2 Hue Bridge:

• Make sure all devices on old Bridge have their latest firmware
• Use the Hue app to migrate all settings and devices from V2 to Pro Bridge
• Open iConnectHue, DO NOT reconnect or delete the old bridge there yet!
• When multiple Bridges are supported
        Search and connect your new Bridge
        Migration notice should appear
        Follow the migration process to get all of iConnectHue's settings moved to your new Bridge
• On single Bridge support
        Go to Devices->Your Bridge
        Select find / switch Bridge
        Select your new bridge (should state "Migrated Bridge")
        Follow the migration process to get all of iConnectHue's settings moved to your new Bridge
• Now everything should be migrated

In case the dialogue didn't appear our you cancelled, you can always migrate later under Devices->Your Bridge->Settings->Migrate old Bridge, but we recommend to do it right after your bridge connection.
The migration process is also explained on our Homepage.

Hint: You can still use the old Bridge in addition or in another home! Reset it after the migration process though.

- Pro Bridge limitations -

The new Bridge is quite capable, but there are certain limitations you should know:

• It doesn't support old Living Colors / Whites lights - either keep your old Bridge for them or get replacements.

• You are STILL limited to the same amount of Rules and Actions on your Pro Bridge. This is a bit of a bummer, as this will limit how many devices you can configure.
We are very hopeful that the Rule/Action limit could fall next year, but we can't say when, as this requires changes to the Hue Bridge firmware, which we do not control.

• It supports the same amount of sensor/switch devices as your old Bridge does. So the rule/action limit might be less severe, but keep in mind that you can't have endless devices.

• You can only migrate ONE Bridge with the Hue app. Multiple Bridges may be supported in the future. Right now we recommend to check your Bridge resources in its settings to see whether there's place for one more Bridge on there!

• There is still only ONE active entertainment zone with 10 lights possible. This may change in the future as well.

- Other bright ideas -

• Improved Bridge addition process
• Tap the Bridge percent resources in its settings and see the actual count
• Fixes and stability improvements to keep everything smooth
• Stay tuned: We're already working on some great new things to come - yes, again!

Heads up: If widgets or shortcuts act up, try restarting your device - it’s an iOS thing, not an us thing!

NOTE: We always support the current and the next iOS version. This will likely be the last version with iOS 17 support!

New in iConnectHue 5.12
Ready to go Pro? iConnectHue now supports the brand new Hue Pro Bridge!

- Pro Bridge support -

We were quick, hopefully quick enough for your switch to the all-new Pro Bridge. You can add and use it by today!

It may look small, but making it work reliably took major changes under the hood. We’ve updated and fine-tuned a lot to ensure everything runs smoothly for you. New devices always mean a lot of research, redesign, and testing - and we’re committed to getting it right for you!
(Included for Members, w/ 2025 upgrade or when purchased in 2025)

- Pro Bridge migration -

This is how you migrate from your old V2 Hue Bridge:

• Make sure all devices on old Bridge have their latest firmware (turn all lights physically on, connect seasonal lights!)
• Use the Hue app to migrate all settings and devices from V2 to Pro Bridge
• Open iConnectHue, DO NOT reconnect or delete the old bridge there yet!
• When multiple Bridges are supported
        Search and connect your new Bridge
        Migration notice should appear
        Follow the migration process to get all of iConnectHue's settings moved to your new Bridge
• On single Bridge support
        Go to Devices->Your Bridge
        Select find / switch Bridge
        Select your new bridge (should state "Migrated Bridge")
        Follow the migration process to get all of iConnectHue's settings moved to your new Bridge
• Now everything should be migrated

In case the dialogue didn't appear our you cancelled, you can always migrate later under Devices->Your Bridge->Settings->Migrate old Bridge, but we recommend to do it right after your bridge connection.
The migration process is also explained on our Homepage.

Hint: You can still use the old Bridge via multi Bridge support or in another home! Reset it after the migration process though.

5.10.2:
- Worked around iOS issue that the Home Widget function sometimes opened the app
- Added workaround for renaming certain devices and lights wasn't reflected in certain situations due to the Bridge not synchronizing it
- Several other small improvements in app and Watch app

NOTE: If you're still using a V1 bridge, please UPGRADE SOON! Beginning with this release, we cannot guarantee the search reliability due to required changes. From now on, we cannot guarantee anything for the old bridge, it won't be respected any longer for ongoing changes. Old bridges haven't been supported since 4 years and will be unavailable beginning with 2026.

New in iConnectHue 5.9 - Leave a light on... for me...

We’re flipping the switch on some shiny new features! Whether you’re a seasoned Member or just browsing the glow-up, this update brings clarity, color, and a few surprises. Here’s what’s lighting up the latest version:

Updated switch editor

Our switch editor just got a glow-up! No more messy action selection - in the new wizard, everything is now sorted by type and action, which guides you sleek and easy through the process.
The updates in many details, like improved tutorials, around it make it a smoother, brighter experience for everyone - and for free!

New switch actions

We've taught your switches new tricks - and they're brilliant:

• Set color for single lights
• Adjust brightness for single lights
• Let single lights blink
• Adjust the color temperature relatively (Pro)
• Stop Hue Entertainment
• Group blink now works with most other group actions (Free!)

Everything is easily accessible through our new action editor, and we're thinking about adding setup wizards in the future, based on your feedback. Also available for coming/leaving actions.

(Included for Members or w/ 2025 upgrade or when purchased in 2025)

Easter scenes

Our Egg-cellent "Easter Eggs" Magic Scene set is back again, until end of April. Hopefully not too late for your easter - we're sorry if, but we wanted to make sure everything is working perfectly for you!

Other bright ideas

• Reset the fade time in the switch editor via the reset icon
• Support for new lights
• Lock screen icon is back (blame iOS 18.3 for the hiccup)
• Fixes and stability improvements to keep everything smooth

Heads up: If widgets or shortcuts act up, try restarting your device - it’s an iOS thing, not an us thing!
We’d love your feedback!

5.8.6

• St. Patrick's Day Magic Scene set available until end of March
• Added support for new light models
• Solved some problems

Thanks for using iConnectHue! New in iConnectHue 5.8:

It's going to get flashy with this update, be prepared for:

Global light fade time

You can now have a longer/shorter fade time in the app when toggling lights, selecting a color or (Magic) scene.

Go to Settings->Light fade time at the bottom and select whatever you want in a range between 0 and 10 seconds (use scrubbing for fine tuning the time).

These times also also automatically applied when adding new timers or adding new actions for devices (note that it won't change the time for existing device actions nor existing timers).

(Available for every Member)

Effect options

You can now edit the options of Hue light effects after selecting an effect in the effects menu of a light. Simply open the same menu again, then select "Effect options", and set speed and color to your likings.

In addition to this, effect colors and speeds are also supported via drag & drop by now.
Note: Availability depends on latest bridge firmware (1.67), and your lights support them.

(Available for every Member or w/ 2024 upgrade or when purchased in 2024)

Other detail improvements

• We've adjusted the UI and dialogues in some places for better usability
• Added support for new lights
• As always: Fixes and stability improvements

Note: If app extensions such as the widget or shortcuts do not work after the update, please restart your device. This is an issue in iOS that we cannot bypass.

•• Please support us with a positive App store rating - thank you very much! ••
