You can customize the ambiance of any room in your home from your smartphone with Philips Hue’s super user-friendly app, whether you want to set up lighting routines, sync your lighting with your favorite music or mimic the sunrise as you wake in the morning. 

Philips Hue’s lights are compatible with major smart home ecosystems such as Amazon's Alexa, Google Assistant, and Apple HomeKit.
