To install this, scroll down until you see “Add New”.įirstly, give the lab formula a name – such as “Study colorloop”. You can see that it explains what this lab formula does – i.e.

To get this set up, within the “Hue Labs” part of the app, click on “Formulas” at the top and then scroll down to “Hue colorloop”. This is actually what I have running on my Hue Lightstrip around my desk, although ColorLoop can work with ANY color bulb from Hue. I’ve done a full walkthrough of most of these lab formulas in another video, but I wanted to show you the “ColorLoop” formula, which is the easiest way of setting up color cycling on your Hue lights. This is where a range of ‘experimental’ formulas exist, and many of these allow you to have the colors of your Hue bulbs cycle between a range of colors. So as long as you use the Hue Bridge, you can launch the Hue app, go to “Explore” and then “Hue Labs”. This is via a Hue lab formula known as Color Loop, although this is only available if your Hue bulbs connect to a Hue Bridge – it’s unfortunately not possible with the Hue Bluetooth app. Thankfully, though, there is a semi-official way of having color cycling from within the Hue app. So the fact that it doesn’t exist within the official Hue app seems a bit rubbish. However this fairly simple feature IS offered within the LIFX app, which has a number of simple color cycling effects to choose from. You can’t set your bulbs to automatically cycle between different colors. When you first install a Philips Hue light and open the Hue app, you can be forgiven for being a little… underwhelmed.Īfter all, whilst you can set your bulbs to different colors (and brightness levels), there’s nothing dynamic within the app. Hello, I’m Tristan from Smart Home Point.
