Hue bridge pro

Thorlight was the best hue app, I paid for all the upgrades and it was awesome. Unfortunately i upgraded my bridge to the Pro and the app no longer works. Please please please update so I can go back to using it.

I’d really love to see an update

This app is really cool in how it allows you to set up your lights to reflect their physical proximity. This allows you to play animations that simulate clouds passing over or a change of color going from one light to the next closest one or whatever you choose.

But no updates in 4 years? Come onnnn. Please? I really like this app and I don’t know of any other that lets you set up your hue lights this way
