## What is HUE Power?

Use your phone as a remote to turn up the brightness, quickly toggle lights on and off, switch colors and save your favorite ones.

Great lights control
- Control HUE lights individually
- Turn ON/OFF and set brightness of HUE lights from the main screen 
- Use a master fader to fine tune the brightness of your active lights 
- Power-on Behavior feature. Set what your lights do when they are powered on.

Manage your lights as groups
- Create groups to control your HUE lights together with one single touch 
- Set all HUE lights to the same color and brightness with "All lights group" 

Snapshots - Capture a moment
- Save all active lights' status into a snapshot and call it back later 
- You can use the snapshots as scenes as before in the Philips HUE app 
- Manage your snapshots independently from each other. Turn them ON/OFF separately and manage their details
- Create snapshots and save it on your Philips HUE bridge to share it with your friends and family members
- You can create public or private snapshots (scenes). Public snapshots are for everyone who use the bridge and private snapshots are only visible to you

### 1/5 — Completely useless app, with poor functionality

*2024-06-11*

Firstly, not of all the lights are displayed. Actually, it is the first app I have ever come across which doesn’t read all the lights from the bridge; 
Secondly, once you connect “half” of your  lights, the fun ends there. Where are the effects, scenes, etc? 
What is the point of this app??

### 2/5 — Habe mehr erwartet.

*2023-01-14, version 4.3*

Die meisten Lampen werden angezeigt, jedoch nicht alle und auch keine Gruppen. Auch alle Steckdosen oder Sensoren werden nicht angezeigt, aber bei Alles aus berücksichtigt.

### 5/5 — It’s good

*2022-10-03*

Has a lot of features 🛋

### 5/5 — Gute Alternative zur Orignal App

*2019-12-15, version 3.3*

Steuerung klappt sehr gut und UI sieht modern aus. Nutze es gern als Alternative zur Original App.
