A bear. A star. Your light. Light Bear turns your HomeKit lights into something magical. Instead of complicated menus, you control brightness with a single swipe across a lovingly crafted bear. The brighter the light, the more the bear glows. In darkness, it becomes a peaceful silhouette with closed eyes. At full brightness, its star radiates warmth across the screen. Why Lichtbär? Lichtbär is not another smart home hub with a hundred features. It's an intentionally simple app that does exactly one thing – and does it beautifully: dimming lights. Perfect for kids. Your child wants to control their own nightlight? Lichtbär only shows lights. No thermostats, no door locks, no cameras. Nothing that can be accidentally changed. Perfect for you. Open, swipe, done. No room setup needed – Lichtbär reads your rooms and lights automatically from your Apple Home. How it works: · Open the app – your HomeKit rooms appear as tabs · Swipe up on the bear for more light, down for less · The bear responds with a warm glow effect matching the current brightness · Multiple lights per room? Control them all at once or pick a specific one · Changes from Siri or the Home app are reflected in the bear in real time Features: · Automatic room detection from Apple Home · Vertical slider inspired by the iOS flashlight widget · Control all lights per room or individually · Live sync with Apple Home, Siri, and physical switches · Gentle haptic feedback at every brightness step · Minimalist dark UI – the bear is the interface · Demo mode to try without a HomeKit setup · No ads, no tracking, no accounts Requirements: Lichtbär works with all HomeKit-compatible lights. You need at least one smart light set up in the Apple Home app. Supports all lights with brightness control, including Philips Hue, IKEA DIRIGERA, Nanoleaf, Eve, Meross, and many more.
