Philips Hue has released another update for its app, version 5.46.0 is now available for download. The update is already available in the Apple App Store, but it is not yet visible in the Google Play Store. I think it will follow there in the coming days. In any case, there isn’t much to report, as Philips Hue doesn’t have any new features to offer this time around.
Philips Hue released another update for its official app on Thursday. However, I can keep this brief: there are no major new features. “Various bug fixes and stability improvements,” says the update description for version 5.44. Every now and then, new features do creep in, but so far I haven’t noticed anything.
In recent years, I have been repeatedly confronted with support requests on this very topic, and now Philips Hue has finally integrated a solution into its app. With version 5.43 of the Hue app, which is already available in the Apple App Store and will soon also be available in the Google Play Store, a small accessory trap has been fixed.
After almost exactly four weeks, there is finally a new update for the Philips Hue app in the Apple App Store and Google Play Store. Version 5.42.0 of the Hue app is now available for download, meaning that 5.41.0 has been omitted. What has changed in the new version? For the first time, it is now possible to hide the master switch on the home page.
There is yet another new update for iConnectHue, probably the most comprehensive app for configuring the Philips Hue system. With version 5.9, German developer Stefan Göhler delivers a new switch editor that makes the selection of available actions for a button press even clearer. “Our switch editor has been given a glow-up,” the developer tells us.
I’ll make this short and sweet at this late hour: an update for the Philips Hue app is available to download from the Google Play Store and Apple App Store. However, version 5.40.0 does not bring any new functions or significant changes. The update description simply states: “Various bug fixes and stability improvements.”
On an unusual Thursday for Hue, another update for the official app is available for download in the Google Play Store and Apple App Store. You can now download Philips Hue 5.39. The new features are limited this time, but for the first time in a long time there are “finally” new scenes.
Yesterday, the Philips Hue app was updated to version 5.38.1. An update on a Sunday? That’s a pretty unusual thing, but Philips Hue wanted to remove the Hue Secure doorbell we discovered from the app as quickly as possible. This was achieved with the update – but a few other lines of code were probably changed at the same time.
As it does almost every two weeks, Philips Hue updated its app this Tuesday again. Version 5.38 is now available to download from the Apple App Store and Google Play Store. I’ll tell you what’s new in this article. In the update description, Philips Hue first mentions a function that I already presented to you on Saturday: Adding new devices via QR code scan.
Brand new light bulbs and accessories are normally connected to the Philips Hue Bridge without any problems. Even with the serial number, you can usually succeed quickly. In addition, my recommendation is an absolute safe bet: quickly reset the light to be added using a dimmer switch. In addition to all these options, there is now another way, which is now the first option in the Philips Hue app: Setting up with a QR code.
