United StatesSend colors from your TV to Hue, LIFX, Nanoleaf, and Avea bulbs. Just aim Hue TV at your monitor and your space lights up with colors that follow the show you're watching. Too cool! Using your device’s camera, the app chooses the most important colors in the picture – up to three – and puts you in the show. Even add extra, harmonized colors for a sophisticated effect. Too bright? The global brightness control lets you dial it down for a quieter mood. - Change the speed and vividness to your taste - Selection tool lets you focus on just one part of the screen - Quick on/ quick off switch - Use up to fifty bulbs - Remembers your settings between uses - Use Hue, LIFX, Nanoleaf, and Avea together at the same time To use Hue TV you need at least one of... - a Philips Hue bridge with at least one controlled bulb - LIFX bulbs - Nanoleaf panels and controller - an Elgato Avea bulb and an iOS device with Bluetooth 4.0 LIFX bulbs should have the latest firmware update from http://www.lifx.com/pages/updates .

Broken App, No response from support
I've waited a week to hear from support and gotten nothing. This app CRASHES on an iOS 9 iPad, though the developer claims it works under iOS 9. It also crashes in iOS 15.3 on an iPhone 13 Pro Max. So if it's a hardware issue, it's a VERY large compatibilitiy issue. Further, the app, on those rare occasions it doesn't crash, it refuses to connect to Nanoleaf devices, and most of the time never finds them. This app has NEVER worked for me as advertised, and the developer does not respond. DO NOT BUY.
United StatesHue tv is not working anymore!
It used to work for a while and now the hue bridge doesn’t synchronize with the app. I paid for this app a doesn’t work.
United StatesDoes an okay job!
I have Hue Sync Box on my main TV but use a Lifx strip on my smaller TV in the sunroom. For fun, I downloaded this this week because I miss my Hue Sync box when I spend spring and summers out in the sunroom. No problem connecting with my Lifx bulbs (didn’t try Hue yet). It works well - the lag is barely noticeable and you can adjust the brightness and intensity. The only issue I’m having is the camera/focus box at minimum size is still too big for my 32” TV. So I get some black upper/lower areas of a movie and even some of the backs of my wall. I don’t have anywhere closer to the TV to position my iPad, but for my limitations (32” TV corner mounted at the ceiling) and the price it does the job. It works better on my iPhone X than iPod Air 2.
United StatesBest option for tv sync without “Hue Sync”
I’ve used this app for over a year now. It is a must for movie night. Easy connection. I use my iPad at the camera for light syncing. I have used my phone when needed with no issues. You just have to have a good enough angle to see the whole picture without being a distraction for your viewing. I normally use a coffee table or back corner of the couch. Needed update, being able to select where on the screen each light selects color from. Love this app
United StatesBull Crap
This app does not pick up my LIFX lights and I’m sure it won’t work for your either. Waste of money.
United StatesHue now makes a product that makes this obsolete
Attention everybody! This app is now obsolete. Hue actually makes a product now called Hue sync box, which is a physical hdmi device, it is f’n amazing and everything this app is not. My biggest gripes with the app was the lag time. Even if very little lag time, it’s disorienting. The lights must be truely in sync for it to be immersive and enjoyable. The lag time ruins the entire experience because the lights are always a scene or camera shot behind and most movies especially action movies switch the screen to a different camera very frequently. You also have to point the camera at the screen meaning u can’t use your phone while using the app
United StatesHardly and Lag! Multiple settings!
I was very surprised how well this actually works! If you are not using your phone or have a secondary device, this app is amazing! There is basically no lag in transition from screen to lights. There is multiple settings that can allow you to manually adjust the syncing if you feel like it’s just not quit enough or is too much. This is one of the best sync hue apps out there!
United States
- Controls now appear correctly on devices with screen notches. - Fixed an issue with connecting to Nanoleaf.
