Connect up to 50 lights and control them on a smart device
The hue bridge is where all the clever stuff happens. It's the 'bridge' between your bulbs and your smart phone app. And it can link up to 50 bulbs at a time. Once your light bulbs are installed, just download the free app to your smartphone or tablet. The first time it opens it'll search for your bridge and connect to the lights. When that's done, you can use the app to control your wireless bulbs.

Scientifically proven white light setting to help you focus
Choose the 'Concentrate' setting and all your selected LED bulbs will change to a tone and brightness that'll help keep you focused and alert. It's a light setting we tested in a school. And it really helped the kids improve.

Use the timer to set alarms and change your lights over time
The timer function lets you gradually change your lights over time. Use them to turn hue into your morning wake up call, bringing you out of sleep in a rather more pleasant way than an alarm clock. You can also use the timer to turn your lights off gradually, helping you fall asleep naturally. Or simply set the lights to come on at a preset time, such as when you're heading home, so the lights are on when you arrive.

Set lights to turn on and off when you're away from home
What's great about being able to access your lights through a web browser is that you don't need to be at home to control your home lighting. And that means hue can become your guard dog as well as your lights. Maybe you're stuck in the office. But you want it to look like you're home. Just switch the lights on from your menu screen. Or you might be on vacation. If you can get online then you can make it seem like you never left home.

Create an account and access your lights from anywhere
Just because you're not at home doesn't mean you can't enjoy personalised light. With a hue account you'll be able to access your wireless lamps from anywhere in the world, through a web browser or your app. It's easy to create an account. You just need a username and password and you're ready to go. All we ask is that the first time you log in to the hue dashboard you're connected to your home Wi-Fi network. That way we can link your bridge to your account.

16 million colours from an Internet-enabled light bulb
The technology inside every hue wireless LED bulb is a little bit special. It can display different tones of white light – from warm yellow white to vibrant blue white. And it can recreate any colour in the spectrum. Hue light bulbs retrofit directly into your home. Just pick your preferred light fitting or lamps and screw the wireless bulbs in. Then turn the light switch on and you're all done. It really is that simple.

ZigBee technology lets you update your lights wirelessly
We're constantly improving and updating hue to make it even more useful. And we want to make sure that you can benefit from any future updates and enhancements. Hue works on the ZigBee network, which ensures a safe and reliable system to control your lights. It also means any software or firmware updates can be done wirelessly, direct to your bulbs.
