New in iConnectHue 5.15
We’ve been in motion, to present you:
Motion Area support
iConnectHue now supports as first 3rd party app Hue MotionAware Areas. And we’ve added some extras for you:
- Flexible manual setup
- Inactivity times down to 30 seconds
- Use Magic Scenes
- Cancelling like Motion Sensors when the app is used
- Disabling actually cancels inactivity actions
The Hue MotionAware Area allows you to set up your lights to act as a motion sensor – by registering fluctuations between individual device’s signals.
Cancelling means you take control over the room and overrule your Motion Area or Sensor.
You can find the cancelling options under Settings->Motion Sensor cancelling (groups). Select your area there if any action on a certain group should cancel the inactivity actions.
Unfortunately, due to Bridge restrictions, we are otherwise limited to what you can do: Up to 3 rooms or one zone or your home is available, and we have a limited selection of possible actions that can be run.
Note: The initial Motion Area setup needs to be made in the Hue app first in order to be able to configure it here. A Motion Area setup will be available at a later point.
Included in Pro Bridge support
Reworked device editor
We’ve reworked many parts of the device editor for easier use and understanding. Although this has been A LOT of work, this is free for everybody by exception.
If you like it, a good review really helps our small team!
Other bright ideas

- We’ve polished MANY things to make everything smooth for you
Heads up: If widgets or shortcuts act up, try restarting your device – it’s an iOS thing, not an us thing!
