Nicht zu empfehlen

Man kann die App kostenlos Downloaden und danach ist eine Lampe oder ein Raum freigeschaltet und danach muss man sofort 1,99 zahlen. Eine Hue Bridge ist notwendig.

Response from developer

I’m sorry to hear that you’re disappointed about the pricing model. Hue Widgets used to be a paid-up-front app. Unfortunately some customers purchased the app without realizing that you need a Hue Bridge to control their lights, or were not able to connect to it because of unusual network setups. I changed the pricing model to an in-app-purchase to let potential customers try out the app first and have them verify that Hue Widgets works with their setup. Again, I’m sorry to hear that this did not meet your expectation.

Configure?

Won’t connect hue hub?

Response from developer

I’m sorry to hear this. Can you contact me at huewidgets@pimnijman.nl? I’m sure I can help you out.

Terrible App

Do not waste your money on getting a full version !!!

Response from developer

I’m sorry to hear this. What did you expect that wasn’t delivered? The free version has all functionality but is limited to one room, so you should be able to experiment before buying. Please send me an email at huewidgets@pimnijman.nl and let me know how I can help you.

Does not actually create Home Screen widgets

AVOID!!!!! Asks for money and does not do what it’s supposed to.

Response from developer

I’m sorry to hear the app is not working for you. Please contact me at huewidgets@pimnijman.nl so I can investigate and make sure the app works for you as well.

When it works it's good but then it just stops.

Once in a while the widgets just stop working and now the app won't even open the home page.

Response from developer

Hi! Please contact me at huewidgets@pimnijman.nl so that I can investigate what’s happening.
