Nice and Simple

By Pumasalad (Pcmac user)

It does what it says it’ll do. My only omplaint is that “properties” is a throwback to windows. If it’s Mac software, that should be called “Preferences”. Semantics, but it *is* the Mac App store, no the Windows app store. :) It’s fun watching the lights change when the songs change.
Excellent support

By Doctor Yoon (Pcmac user)

Solved problem with near instant email support. A must app for Hue users. Thank you for great app and support.
Great app — fantastic support!

By lucidhysteria (Pcmac user)

First of all, the app itself—while simple—is very, very cool (if you’re like me and you sit at a desk all day listening to music from iTunes and have Phillips Hue lights nearby). But beyond the app, I have to say I am seriously impressed with the support. After using the app with no problems for a month or two, it suddenly stopped working (probably after a Hue bridge update, or some OS updates — not sure). I contacted the developer, and to my surprise, he wrote back very quickly and we began to e-mail back and forth, trying to solve the problem. I had no idea if the problem was with the app, or with the Hue bridge or bulb hardware, or the Hue software, or an Apple software update, or even something in my network configuration that had changed — there are many possible points of failure with something like this, and after a few rounds of e-mails back and forth, I think a lesser developer would have just given up and passed the blame on to one of those other possibilities. Not Claus. He kept in touch and even sent a new version of the app for me to test if I wanted (rather than having to wait even longer for the update to be available in the App Store, etc.). Definitely an app (and developer) worth supporting!
Thanks for the update!

Updated my review to 5 stars - thanks for the option to disable the bright white on iTunes stop. this app is a great iTunes companion. When the iTunes track changes my 17 Hue bulbs adjust the lighting to match the album the app. Usually iTunes is playing through my AppleTV and to have ambient lighting in sync with the the app art on the big screen is very cool.
