Philips Hue 5.34 makes Arming schedule official

Already active since last week

Last week I was already able to tell you that Philips Hue Secure has received a (promised) new function: Schedules for the security system. With the update to version 5.34 of the Philips Hue app, the feature has now been officially announced once again. The manufacturer provides us with the following information in the update description.

Schedule your security system to arm and disarm automatically. Open the Automations tab, tap the plus (+) icon, and scroll down to find Arming schedule now!

There do not appear to be any other new features with this version. For example, it is still unclear when the new function for detecting smoke detectors via a Hue Secure camera, which was announced at the beginning of the year, will be integrated. If you discover any other changes in the Hue app, please let me know in the comments.

  1. It’s funny this, ive been using a home made house alarm tapping into hue sensors for about 6 years maybe longer, I actually emailed them … Shared the idea and got blanked … Few years later and just like that there’s house alarm features

    I’m still ahead boys, loads of features I’m using if you want to reach out maybe I’ll sell you some ideas this time instead of giving them free
