About
Turn your Philips Hue lights into a light show that moves to your music. PartyLights also works with Govee, Nanoleaf, LIFX and DMX: every brand together in one show, straight over your own Wi-Fi.
EVERY MUSIC SOURCE
Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, a record player or a DJ: the app listens through the microphone, so any source works. Playing music on this iPhone, even through AirPods? The show gets the sound directly. With Apple Music the app knows exactly which song is playing.
WHAT MAKES PARTYLIGHTS DIFFERENT
- All your brands in one show: Philips Hue, Govee, Nanoleaf, LIFX and DMX over Art-Net or sACN. Lights from other brands join in through the Home app (HomeKit).
- It learns your songs. For every song it recognizes, the app remembers the tempo, the beats and the drops. Play it again and the lights know the drop is coming before you hear it.
- Your room as it really is. Each light blinks in turn and you tap where it stands. After that, waves of light roll through the room the way it is laid out.
- No account, no cloud of ours. The app finds your lights on your network and controls them directly: fast, and private.
FOR EVERY MOMENT
- Party: Club, Festival, Lounge, Dinner or Cinema. One tap sets effects, colors and pace.
- New Year's Eve: count down to midnight together. The lights build up, pulse every second for the last ten seconds and burst into color at zero.
- Christmas: red and green like Christmas lights, changing slowly through warm gold. No music needed.
- Quiet evenings: candlelight, fireplace, ocean, forest or northern lights, without the microphone. The Sleep Timer fades the light out gently, and Quiet Hours make the show softer from a time you choose.
TAKE CONTROL DURING THE PARTY
- The Light Desk: Blackout, Freeze, Full Light, Next Palette, Boost and Color Wave.
- Color Map: paint colors onto the floor plan of your room; each light takes the color of the spot it stands on.
- Six wave shapes, from Ripple to Comet, and palettes from a photo or the album cover.
- Advanced: effects on beats, drums, percussion, mood and energy.
- Your iPhone or iPad joins in as a light. A Live Activity shows the song and the tempo; Control Center, Siri and Shortcuts start and stop the show.
No lights yet? The demo plays a built-in song on example lights, so you can see what it does first.
SAFE WITH LIGHT
Strobes are off until you deliberately switch them on, with a warning. A flash limit caps how often per second a light flashes, and the app follows the iOS setting Dim Flashing Lights. Stop the show immediately if anyone feels unwell around flashing light.
PRIVACY
The microphone is used only to analyze the music live. No audio is recorded or sent anywhere. Song Recognition sends a fingerprint of the sound (not a recording) to Apple's Shazam service and can be switched off. No ads, no tracking, no analytics.
FREE AND PRO
Free: the show on the microphone, with color fades and pulses, on all your directly paired lights. For the first four hours of show time you can try everything in Pro for free. After that, PartyLights Pro unlocks the rest, including Advanced effects, Styles, Color Map, palettes, Light Desk, Ambience scenes, Apple Music, song learning, Arrange Room and HomeKit lights. Pro is available per month, per year or as a one-time purchase. Payment is charged to your Apple Account. A subscription renews automatically unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the period. You manage and cancel it in your Apple Account in Settings.
WHAT YOU NEED
An iPhone or iPad with iOS 18 or later and lights on the same Wi-Fi network. Philips Hue requires a Hue Bridge; Govee needs "LAN Control" switched on in the Govee Home app. Brand names are the property of their owners; PartyLights is not affiliated with these manufacturers.
