Feedback
The changes that were made in version 2.3 were... interesting. Using a slapped together recipe in conjunction with the new vertical tabbar to control the lights is inefficient. The apps previous version was much better in this regard (tapping on one scene to control a designated group of lights). The new ability to create scenes within this app is very welcomed. The spectrum tool and selected color identification are solid details. I would like to see the function to load in scenes from Phillips hue app return. This is where all of my scenes are hosted due to the apps geofencing feature.
Which brings up enchantment requests. I would actively promote this app if it had the ability to energy efficiently and accurately geofence toggle select scene(s) on/off. Might as well make an app similar to this for Mac, too. There is no good, simple hue light controller for Mac that I have found. Whoever makes a decent hue app for Mac is going to dominate that territory.
Overall, Hue Widget is great for what it does and what you pay. Pleasant interface, easy setup, Notification Center access, and stable bridge communication. Please listen to my and other app users feedback! This app is still first on my list to replace the incredibly confusing and clunky Phillips Hue app.
This version: ⭐️⭐️⭐️
Overall App: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
