### 1/5 — Doesn’t work with Hue Pro Bridge

*2026-02-21*

I migrated from an older v2 bridge to the new Hue Pro bridge. Bridge Inspector will no longer auto locate the Pro bridge. Since that doesn’t work, when trying to add it manually by IP you get a certificate error and it refuses to move forward with the connection. I know it’s been years since this app was updated but I’d love to see it updated for the Pro hardware, I used to utilize it quite a bit.

### 1/5 — Keeps crashing, won’t work with new bridge

*2026-01-16*

I’ve been having problems with a particular Hue wall light that wouldn’t reconnect when I moved from one old bridge to the new style of Bridge.
This app only seems to find the old bridges and does not know about the new one. Each time I click on scenes the app crashes and has become unusable

### 5/5 — Hue Bridge Pro

*2025-09-14*

The app doesn’t work with the new Hue Bridge Pro

### 1/5 — It’s just an icon

*2024-04-21*

Installed on tvOS 17.

Click on Open. 

Screen flickers something that can’t be seen. 

And does nothing. 

There is no app. It’s just a 3$ icon on my Apple TV that does nothing.

### 5/5 — A must have

*2024-01-26*

This is the only app I’ve ever found that lets me remove old scenes and effects that were cluttering up my Hue Bridge, which was maxed out on space and not letting me add new bulbs and scenes. Thank you!

### 1/5 — Ohne Funktion

*2024-01-21*

Geht leider nicht mehr…

### 1/5 — Funktioniert leider nicht mehr vollständig

*2023-02-28*

Man könnte die App auch als Abandoned bezeichnen. Viele Seiten in der App bleiben leer.

### 3/5 — Anleitung fehlt

*2023-02-10*

Es passieren in unsere Hue Welt komische Sachen, Lampen schalten aus oder ein und man weiß nicht warum. Ich hatte gehoft das diese App mir helfen konnte zu verstehen was passiert und was eine aktion an eine Lampe oder Gruppe ausgelöst hat. Vielleicht geht das auch aber ohne Anleitung geht das nicht. Vielleicht muss ich auch nur was aufräumen in die Bridge, aber was genau kann ich selber nicht sehen. 3 Sternen weil es eine gute App sein kann, ich aber nur nicht weiß wie man damit umgeht.

### 4/5 — Super Tool

*2022-10-26*

Schade, dass man bei mehreren Bridges immer wieder neu pairen muss.

### 1/5 — Veraltet, funktioniert nicht mehr mit aktueller Hue Firmware

*2022-05-27*

Achtung, die Funktionalität ist mit 2022er Hue Firmware stark eingeschränkt und bietet keinen Mehrwert.
