The Philips Hue app for iOS and Android has been updated and comes with new functions. One new feature is the ability to reorganise the Hue Secure cameras in the security area. You can drag and drop the cameras into the order that suits you best.
At the same time, the Philips Hue app makes it easier to change the switch-on behaviour of lamps in a room or zone. Whereas previously you had to control each lamp individually and change the settings, you can now select all the lights in a room or zone to change their switch-on behaviour. This saves clicks and is much quicker.
