As already announced last week, Philips Hue has introduced an exciting innovation around the dynamic scenes with the now released update to version 4.8 of the official app. From now on, the speed of these scenes can be adjusted.

Speed, automations and switches

Just under a week ago, Philips Hue launched Dynamic Scenes.
