Philips Hue meets
Apple HomeKit

Philips Hue just became part of something bigger. Use voice-control through Siri, or link Philips Hue to other HomeKit enabled accessories and take control of your home. Discover the new features that Apple HomeKit unlocks for your Philips Hue lights.

What you can do

Apple HomeKit technology provides an easy, secure way to control HomeKit-enabled accessories from any of your iOS devices. Tell Siri to "turn on the upstairs lights." Dim the lights from your Apple Watch. Use your iPhone to change colors. And much more! All you need is a square-shaped Philips Hue Bridge 2.0 and your favorite iOS device to get started.

Unlocking
new features

Take control of your home with the Apple Home app. Use a single command to set scenes, powering multiple accessories to work in combination. Create a scene "I'm home" to turn on lights, unlock doors, and open your living room shades.

Without touching
a button

One of the coolest new features enabled by linking Philips Hue to Apple Homekit is that you can use Siri to control your Philips Hue lights. Turn on your lights. Dim to the desired brightness. Recall pre-set scenes. Even tell Siri to set up for a party.

Siri commands

"Turn all lights off"

"Turn [light name] on"

"Set [scene name]"

How to upgrade your bridge

The new square-shaped Philips Hue bridge supports the hardware authentication required for Apple HomeKit and enables all your Philips Hue lights to work with Apple HomeKit technology. This means if you have the round-shaped Philips Hue bridge and want to use Apple HomeKit, you will need to get your hands on the new bridge. Your existing lights can be controlled via Apple HomeKit once the new Philips Hue bridge is installed. “Siri, turn on my lights!"
