  Beats scenes from the official Hue app

  Love it so far no complaints other than monthly subscription wished there was a better one time purchase but the developers are putting in great work

• ★★★★★Viktor_withaK

  Order of magnitude better than the stock Hue app

  Which isn’t saying much, of course. But even if the official Hue app *weren’t* miserable, I’d still love iConnectHue. All kinds of thoughtfully-implemented features, but doesn’t take long to get the hang of.

• ★★★★★Sleezly

  User since 2018

  Long time user here. This app keep getting better and better. The developer continues to add new features. Really appreciate everything and the ease of use. Highly recommend.

• ★★★★★Shelby Happy Feet

  Just a lot of fun

  Good things when you play with the lights

• ★★★★★Trioptre

  Longtime user - keeps getting better!

  Been using this for over a year, and it is continuously improving. Great job, iConnectHue!

  Still my go to after 10 years

  I love this app and it’s one of the few that I happily choose to pay an annual subscription for (of course I pay for some subscriptions, just not very happily). I probably don’t use more than a quarter of its features, but I want to support them and make sure they continue to operate and keep making this app better and better. I have used it absolutely daily since 2015, as my stock of hue lights went from three to more than 30. It’s simply the best and most intuitive one I’ve used. Plus they are a great little company that never stops innovating, and in my direct experience is 100% responsive to customer inquiries and issues. You just can’t beat that, and you just can’t expect every part of what they do for a living to be offered for free. So I pay for it, and every year or two when they drop a major release, I update my review. I do that for exactly 2 apps on the well over 200 apps on my iPhone. So make of that what you will.

  Rip off

  I buy the app, and it turns out they’ve put a bunch of features behind a subscription.

• ★★★★★Sod-ers

  Essential; get the most out of your hardware

  Bought in 2021 & used every day since. Some favorite features: - Hold for secondary action & long press exclusivity. - Time alternations. - Inactivity timers as low as 30 secs. - Battery indicators & low warning. - Toggle motion sensors & set lights color. - Adjust motion sensor sensitivity.

• ★★★★★Chazfll

  Total Scam. Shame on iConnectHue

  This was a fantastic app until you updated it, and now our request requesting me to pay for something I already paid for. Whoever is in charge needs to reverse this decision. Why should I buy your lights if you’re gonna charge me more later than to operate them totally ridiculous!

  Paid app with Additional Membership

  I think it’s a bit shady this is a paid app that then locks most features behind an additional subscription. Ive seen other comments with the developer defending this by saying you can also buy individual feature à la carte without a full membership. And yes, you’ll see these marked in the application as “try free”—but it’s not free, since you had to pay to download the app. I think this app has a lot of potential, but please be aware that your first purchase is paying for a demo. EDIT: Adding following the developers response. To say 2/3s of features are available is again misleading. Take Animations for instance- one of the listed features in the app description. I counted over 60 animations available in your app. Only six of them are included in the base price. No one would reasonably expect that they would have less than 10% of a feature listed in the description when making an actual purchase. If I had three apples and let you take a single bite out of two of them - I couldn’t conscionably say you paid for 2/3s of my apples. I don’t think this is a poorly designed app, I just think you’re being opaque about what is available at what price. You responded with a “magazine” analogy and described the options to buy one issue or a whole subscription. But you have always been able to flip through magazines before purchasing them. And if I thumbed through a magazine and saw it only contained 10% of the cover story, then I certainly wouldn’t buy it.
