"all 4 hue" is the most comprehensive and best-rated app for Philips Hue. In addition to direct control of lights and rooms, this app is ideally suited for comprehensive automation of up to five Hue Bridges via timers, alarms and rules in combination with all available Philips Hue devices such as switches and sensors. In addition, this app is also available for Wear OS smartwatches for convenient control of lights, rooms and scenes. The "all 4 hue" tile provides direct access to your Hue Bridges under Wear OS. By the way, "all 4 hue" does also run on Android TVs.
Key functions:
- Control of lights and light groups/zones/rooms including effects that can be activated such as campfire, candlelight and light prism.
- Use of scenes to be able to recall saved light settings both statically and dynamically (freely definable color loops).
- Use alarms and timers to activate freely definable actions at specific times.
- Full configuration of the entire Philips accessories product range with unique functions, for example a single Hue dimmer can be used for up to 5 rooms (by using multiple switching levels).
- Reaction to device events such as incoming SMS or app notifications, e.g. with the lights flashing.

Limitations:
- This app can only be used within the local network, as Philips does not allow third-party apps to access the Hue Bridge from outside the local network without contractual regulations. The development team of this app is currently in contact with Philips to clarify contract details so that remote access may be made available in the future.
- Bluetooth control not supported.
