Once again, Philips Hue has released an update for its app. Version 5.53 is now available for download from the Apple App Store and Google Play Store. The update offers much more than the manufacturer states in the release notes. But first things first. Let’s first take a look at what has officially changed in the new version.
Halloween is about three weeks away and there’s still some time before the real spookiness starts. If you want to start preparing for Halloween, you can now find the familiar Halloween scenes in the Philips Hue app again. No update is required, you can simply take a look at the Hue light scenes gallery.
As a Prime member, you can save a lot of money on Amazon.com well before Black Friday, because Prime Big Deal Days have started. Our favorite smart home brand is also participating: Philips Hue is offering numerous deals on lighting. I took a look at the US and picked out the ten best Philips Hue deals for Prime Big Deal Days.
The Apple community has been waiting a long time for this. With the update to version 5.52, Philips Hue has finally gained the ability to transfer scenes to Apple Home via a Matter connection. This had not been possible since the launch of Matter integration in autumn 2023. To export a scene to Apple Home, you need to activate the scene and then tap the icon with the three dots directly to the right of it.
Blogging about Philips Hue is really fun at the moment, because there is something new to discover almost every day. Not only because of the numerous hardware innovations for this fall, but also thanks to the numerous software updates. You can now find a selection of autumn scenes in the Philips Hue app.
At a rather unusual time, Philips Hue released an update in the App Store on Sunday. Version 5.51 is now also available for iPhone and iPad, after the update was released a few days earlier in the Google Play Store as an exception. However, there are no major new features in this update.
Philips Hue really set off a real fireworks last week, and I’m glad that all the new hardware isn’t available all at once, but will be released over several months. Philips Hue isn’t just concerned with new hardware, but also with software. On Thursday, the Philips Hue app 5.50 was released.
This week, Philips Hue has been busy unveiling a whole bunch of new products. These include the new Hue Bridge Pro, new bulbs and light strips, the doorbell with chime, and two new Festavia models. The new products will be available in Europe by December, but in the US, some will not be available until March 2026.
Today, Philips Hue not only introduced numerous new products, but also updated its app for iPhone and iPad. For Android, the update to version 5.50 should be available in the coming days. I’ll take you through it and tell you what’s changed. Behind the scenes, Philips Hue has already been working on implementing the new devices over the past few weeks, including new icons in the color wheel for the Hue Festavia Globe string of lights.
