Aura for Philips Hue & LIFX

Great app for giving you relaxed chill Hue lights faded colors. Only complaints - could use more light programs for the $6 in app fee. Additionally, lights freeze in last setting, once the you open another App on your phone or your phone screen goes to sleep. It needs to run indefinitely or on a timer in the settings.

I immediately fell in love with this app because it makes it so easy to have smooth dynamic light scenes without the headache of creating them. BUT!! it needs to be able to run in the background. I want to have the light show happening as i do other things with the phone. This is a BIG ISSUE for me. Also being able to add my own photos from camera role and have the app read them and create dynamic light show would make the app perfect!

After trying out so many Phillip Hues app this is by far the best one. The gradual fade in and out of the different colors are subtle and rich. Upgrading is a must. The only drawback is the aren’t enough images. Hopefully they will add some soon. But definitely worth the money.

“USED TO...”. As in worked well but doesn’t anymore. Possibly due to recent updates or iOS updates, I am no longer able to connect to our Philips Hue system. They have no support contact outside of a Twitter feed. As far as the app goes, for the price paid, I would have expected more color settings/themes. It’s nice to have the color, effects, and sounds but you can achieve the same thing from a few other apps or a combination of apps.

Good app, good scenes...I recommend, great for a conversation starter with the full. To the point: why the F do I have to turn off the EFFING lights from the device that initially set the scene, as opposed the iOS devise in my EFFING hand presently? Pleas take your time to respond whilst I trundle through this slag heap to find which, of a dozen, device may hold the key to my release to the land of...Oh, your a dark lot!
