How to set up the color of a group

In this example, we’ll explain how you can set up a shortcut in Apple’s Shortcuts app to set a color in a group of Philips Hue lights.


Tap on “Set Group Color”.

Tap on ‘group’ to select a group of your choice.

Tap on source.

Now you can choose whether you want to assign one of your colors or a color code (>Pro only) to the group. (in this example, my color)

Tap on color.

Here you can select a color of your choice.

If you still want to rename your shortcut, for example, to the name of the color, then tap on ‘Set Group Color’ at the top.

Tap on Rename and give your shortcut a new name.

And that’s it. Now you have created a shortcut to set a group color.
