About this app

Control your lights from your Home Screen.

With Hue Widgets, you can add widgets to your Home Screen that give you super quick access to your favorite Hue scenes. You can add actions to turn on or off all lights in a room or in your entire home. Controlling your Hue lights has never been easier!

Widgets can be configured with ease from within the app. You can add as many widgets to your Home Screen as you like.

Hue Widgets is free to try. You can create widgets for a single room or group, giving you a taste of the full Hue Widgets experience without any cost. Unlock the full, unlimited version with a one-time in-app purchase to access all rooms and groups.

From the beginning this app was developed with accessibility in mind. All features can be accessed using VoiceOver.

Hue Widgets works on your local network. A Hue Bridge (v2) is required to connect with your lights.

Arithmetic on the stores' own published rating counts. It says nothing about why the ratings fall where they do.

In the app package we scanned

No package has been scanned for this app, so nothing is published about what it ships. That is an absence of evidence, not a finding.

Method and limits

What this report can and cannot show

What a missing label means

Not yet tested. No analysis has been published for this app, so there is no method to describe for it yet. A missing label is not a clean bill of health: it means nothing has been read, not that nothing is wrong.

Limits of this report

  • A package scan is static. It identifies code and text in one Android build. It does not measure a live ad session, test a deletion request, or count the steps needed to cancel.
  • Reviews keep their sample. A review-only charge shows distinct reviewers, the share and the sample size, and is published only once it clears that label’s published threshold. Calibration labels are machine-drafted and not yet confirmed by a person.
  • Not assessed is a state. It is never a zero and never a pass.
  • A missing label is not a clean bill of health. It means the evidence did not support one, not that the app is problem-free.
Not yet human-reviewed. A human review gives an app hands-on, recorded measurements. None has been run for this app. Hands-on inspections are not yet open.
