Hue Camera for Philips Hue App Reviews

Needs to be reinstalled before every use

Works great. Disconnects from bridge on second startup. I have to uninstall and reinstall then connect every time. Annoying. Running on iPad mini

Complete waste of money

So choppy and distracting - it is terrible.

Its broken

The effect is very nice, when it works. Frankly, the app is broken. It regularly forgets the bridge and requires a reinstall with no option to locate the bridge. Stay away until fixed, not worth the trouble at this time.

Waiting for response

Purchased the app. Loved it. Worked great. For a while. Now it "wont connect to a bridge". Still waiting for support. I will adjust review accordingly when help arrives.

Great app but....

This app works as described, however what the description fails to say is that you have to keep your device open and the app running the entire time. Its great but drains your battery especially if your watching a 2 hour movie. As far as the app itself, I did not experience any delay. I hope the developer will read this review because I do have an idea that I think would work in conjunction with this app. Make a "web cam" specially designed for use only with this app that connects to the hue bridge via wifi and plugs into an outlet for power. No more phone being open.

Camera Orientation

The camera orientation on my iPad Air 2 is very buggy, they definitely need to fix that! But I do like how you can change the brightness of the lights now!

Camera orientation now broke

Please switch back to the camera orientation in the previous version. I would use this with my iPad Air 2 upside down so I could charge and sync my lights with my tv at the same time. Now when I place the iPad upside down the camera flips to an upside down mode instead of correcting and flipping the screen correctly. Its not possible for me to charge and use this app at the same time now. I do love the new options for light dimming/brightness and if you fix the screen orientation this app will be perfect again. Thanks for the hard work and effort!
