Two weeks after the last update for the Philips Hue app, the next update is already available in the Apple App Store and Google Play Store. You can now download version 5.22 of the Hue app to your devices. The update is particularly interesting if you have Hue Secure cameras in use.
The first images of the Philips Hue Play HDMI Sync Box 8K appeared online over a year ago. At the time, someone probably made a mistake and uploaded the product images of the new generation to the product page of the previous model. Since then, it has been quiet around the new Sync Box.
Last Tuesday, Philips Hue released a major update for its own app. Among other things, a function was added to start and stop the new sleep automations with a switch. However, so far only Tap Dial Switch, wall switch modules, Tap and Friends of Hue switches are supported. However, this should change soon, as a recently released software update for the Hue Bridge shows.
It’s Prime Day once again, and Amazon is selling technology and other products at bargain prices in all kinds of countries today. And of course Philips Hue is not to be missed. I’ve already looked around a bit for you and picked out the best deals for you from the most important countries.
The Hueblog readership also experienced the problem that I had to report on at the beginning of the week: dimmed Philips Hue lamps can suddenly light up with 100 per cent brightness.

With the latest update to version 5.21, Philips Hue has not only introduced some scenes, but also new functions. I have already explained how you can start sleep automation at the touch of a button. Another new feature is the option to hide rooms and zones on the start page.
Yesterday I already drew your attention to the latest update of the Philips Hue app. Version 5.21 brings some new features, including the ability to start sleep automation at the touch of a button on a Hue switch. But how exactly does this work and what do you need to bear in mind?
Once again, there is a new update for the Philips Hue app. Version 5.20 has been skipped, instead you can now download version 5.21 from the Apple App Store and Google Play Store. I will be presenting some of the new functions to you in detail in the coming days, but today there is a brief overview of the new features.
Last week, I already received the first letters on the subject, but was not yet able to understand the whole thing. A report from The Verge now gives us more information. But what is it all about? Apparently, in some cases Philips Hue lamps suddenly switch to full brightness, even when they are dimmed.
You’ve already heard about it: Signify, the manufacturer of Philips Hue, has joined the Mercedes Formula 1 team as a sponsor. The first race weekend in Silverstone went straight to plan: after a long dry spell, Lewis Hamilton took his first win in over two years at his home race of all places.
